1. What you fear most….is that which has already happened! It is the past!

2. Life is a school. We are here to learn compassion, non-violence, faith, and charity. We are here to unlearn negative emotions like fear, anger, jealousy, and greed.

3. We can only control our reactions and attitudes to what happens to us. We cannot control the actual events. Learn the difference.

4. If your mind is already made up, you cannot learn anything new. It is important to keep an open mind.

5. Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.

6. Fear is what closes minds. Love is what opens the heart and dissolves the fear.

7. The past is over, the future not yet here. Learn from the past and let it go. Plan for the future but do not worry. Only then can you truly enjoy the present.

8. Relinquish your need for external approval. You alone are the judge of your worth, and your goal is to discover infinite worth in yourself, no matter what anyone else thinks.

9. Shed the burden of judgment – you will feel much lighter. Judgment imposes right and wrong on situations that just are.
