running procrastination men
Procrastination is illogical from every viewpoint. It is like the man who wanted to cross the stream, so he sat on the bank to wait for all the water to run by.
running transformation proportion
Our life-transformation is in exact proportion to the amount of truth we can take without running away.
running forward-movement walks
Run forward when possible, walk ahead when you can, stagger onward when you must, but never cease your forward movement.
running night painful-experiences
A chief cause of unhappiness is what I call mental movies. Mental movies are a misuse of the imagination. You know how it goes. You have a painful experience with someone, then run it over and over in your mind. You visualize what you said, what he did, how you both felt. As awful as it is, you feel compelled to repeat the film day and night. It is as if you were locked inside a theatre playing a horrible movie.
running night darkness
Do not be impatient with your seemingly slow progress. Do not try to run faster than you presently can. If you are studying, reflecting and trying, you are making progress whether you are aware of it or not. A traveler walking the road in the darkness of night is still going forward. Someday, some way, everything will break open, like the natural unfolding of a rosebud.
carefully cause law
Stucy carefully the law of cause and effect.
happiness liberty unhappy
Happiness is liberty from everything that makes us unhappy.
fear never-fear
You must never fear anything at all.
inspirational law people
It is against the law to permit weak people to steal your strength. Never permit it.
change loss
Change is never a loss - it is change only.
fall men relaxation
A cheery relaxation is man's natural state, just as nature itself is relaxed. A waterfall is concerned only with being itself, not with doing something it considers waterfall-like.
spiritual teacher fall
The Truth must be told at all costs, no matter how unpopular it may be. The authentic spiritual leader, having freed himself of his own false need to be popular, tells the Truth whether it falls on fertile or stony ground. Such a teacher is the salt of the earth, though few know it. If you think the world is delirious as is, you would find it intolerable without his healing influence.
time needs can-do
You need only choose ... then keep choosing as many times as necessary. That is all you need do. And it is certainly something you can do. Then as you continue to choose, everything is yours.
law causes study
Study carefully the law of cause and effect.
