Forget about what you
think you know.
“It is impossible to
begin to learn that which one thinks one already knows.”
You choose to be
insulted.
“It is not he who
reviles or strikes you who insults you, but your opinion that these things are
insulting.”
Listen.
“We have two ears and
one mouth so that we can listen twice as much as we speak.”
Appreciate what you
have.
“He is a wise man who
does not grieve for the things which he has not, but rejoices for those which
he has.”
Notice what is
reflected.
“When you are offended
at any man’s fault, turn to yourself and study your own failings. Then you will
forget your anger.”
Suffering is optional.
And so is happiness.
“There is only one way
to happiness and that is to cease worrying about things which are beyond the
power of our will.”
