Thich Nhat Hanh "People deal too much with the negative, with what is wrong. Why not try and see positive things, to just touch those things and make them bloom?" Steve Jobs "Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition." Elizabeth Thornton "To increase our objectivity, we must learn to switch off the mini-movies. Objectivity requires us to be mindful, present in the moment, and experiencing what is happening without judgment." |
