“To find the shortest path to any dream, work with ideas, not facts. Dwell upon the end result, not the hows. And rely upon the Universe, not yourself.” – Mike Dooley, Notes From The Universe

“In the hit song “Limbo Rock”, when Chubby Checker asked, “How long can you go?”, he wasn’t challenging people to go from bad to worse. He was encouraging them to bend their backs and emerge triumphantly limber from under the limbo pole. Sometimes it may seem you’ll never be able to bend  and come out from under the barriers that are getting you down. The only way to overcome obstacles is to continue working your way through them.” – Wally Amos, The Path To Success Is Paved With Positive Thinking

“To be in harmony with the Universe is the same feeling as when you float on water. If you are tense, or if you resist the water, you will sink. If you surrender to the water, the water will support you and you will float. That is the feeling, and that is how you harmonize yourself with the Universe. Let the tension go and float.” –  Rhonda Byrne, The Secret Daily Teachings 

“Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth.” The meek are the humble. The meek are the egoless. They are those who have awakened to their essential true nature as consciousness and recognize that essence in all others, all life-forms. – Eckhart Tolle, A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life’s Purpose

Make sure your vision or goal is not an inflated image of yourself and therefore a concealed form of ego. Here is no wanting involved. You cannot manifest what you want; you can only manifest what you already have. Jesus said, “Whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.” – Eckhart Tolle, A New Earth:

“The foundation for greatness is honoring the small things of the present moment instead of pursuing the idea of greatness. The present moment is always all in the sense that is always simple, but concealed within it lies the greatest power.” – Eckhart Tolle, A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life’s Purpose

“Whatever you do takes time, and yet it is always now.” – Eckhart Tolle, A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life’s Purpose

“Without living in alignment with your primary purpose you come up with, even if it is to create heaven on earth, will be of the ego or become destroyed by time. Sooner or later, it will lead to suffering. If you ignore your purpose, no matter what you do, even if it looks spiritual, the ego will creep into how you do it, and so the means will corrupt the end.” – Eckhart Tolle, A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life’s Purpose

“Whatever is attained through cleverness is short-lived and always turns out to be eventually self-defeating. Cleverness divides; intelligence unites.” – Eckhart Tolle, A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life’s Purpose

“Don’t seek happiness. If you seek it, you won’t find it, because seeing is the antithesis of happiness. Happiness is ever elusive, but freedom from unhappiness is attainable now, by facing what is rather than making up stories about it.” – Eckhart Tolle, A New Earth: Awakening  to Your Life’s Purpose
