sports spiritual art
Nature and training (in any sport or art) can teach us all the spiritual laws I describe in another book, The Laws of Spirit. But now I'm happy to share these four purposes of life that lend meaning and direction to anyone's life, especially those in transition, going through changes."
courage enough ifs
Do you have the courage for it? Do you have the love? If you have enough of one, you will develop the other.
dream confused reality
Everyone everywhere live[s] a confused, bitter search. Reality never matched their dreams; happiness was just around the corner - a corner they never turned. And the source of it all [is] the human mind.
feelings alive demand
No amount of knowledge will nourish or sustain your spirit, it can never bring you ulimate happiness or peace. Life requires more that knowledge; it requires intense feeling and constant energy. Life demands right action if knowledge is to come alive.
love-you order two
Someday, in the moment of death, your whole life will pass before you. In a few fractions of a second-because time no longer applies-you will see many incidents from your life in order to learn. You will review your life with two questions in your consciousness: Could I have shown a little more courage in these moments? Could I have shown a little more love? You will see where you let fear stop you from expressing who you are, how you feel, or what you need. You will see whether you were able to expand into these moments, just a little, to show love, or whether you contracted.
goal focus simplicity
Avoid fragmentation: Find your focus and seek simplicity. Purposeful living calls for elegant efficiency and economy of effort-expanding the minimum time and energy necessary to achieve desired goals.
running giving-up moving
When running up a hill, it is all right to give up as many times as you wish-as long as your feet keep on moving.
life making-love praying
Don't be like the preacher who thought about praying while making love with his life and thought about love while praying.
writing college paper
I kind of got more interested in writing after I turned in my last college essay and nobody was going to tell me what kind of academic papers to write anymore. I could write whatever I wanted, and I realized that I actually liked it when I could choose what I would write.
love-you sea alive
Ships are safe in harbor, but that's not what ships are for. So set sail on the stormy sea of love. You're going to get soaked at times, but at least you'll know you're alive.
race mind happens
...when you resist what happens, your mind begins to race; the same thoughts that impinge upon you are actually created by you.
missing meals
While you fear missing a meal, you aren't fully aware of the meals you do eat.
manage
As you manage your money, you manage your life.
success sports journey
Every athletic career, no matter how modest or lofty, is a journey.
