When our intentions toward others are good, we find that any feelings of anxiety
or insecurity we may have are greatly reduced. We experience a
liberation from our habitual preoccupation with self and paradoxically,
this gives rise to strong feelings of confidence....His Holiness the Dalai Lama of Tibet
"Living is not a race; it is a journey, something to be enjoyed each day. You can do a great deal to help children to understand this important truth, and you will get a nice bonus as well—that is, a lot less anxiety for yourself as part of the bargain." - Dr. Wayne Dyer, How to Help Your Children Be Free of Stress and Anxiety
"Every little obstacle—every fall you have—is an opportunity." - Dr. Wayne Dyer
"The experience of inner peace is my true gauge of all accomplishments." - Dr. Wayne Dyer
"Loving others starts with loving myself. If you don't love yourself, nobody else will. Not only that- you won't be good at loving anyone else. Loving starts with the self." - Dr. Wayne Dyer
The place to improve the world is first in one's own heart and head and hands, and then work outward from there." — Robert M. Pirsig (Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance)
"Persistently viewing others as dishonest, lazy, sinful, and ignorant can be a way of compensating for something you fear. If there's a pattern of seeing others as failures, you need to notice this pattern as evidence of what you're attracting into your life." - Dr. Wayne Dyer
To balance your life with more lovingness, you need to match your thoughts and behaviors with those of your Source, being love in the way that God is. This means noticing when you're inclined to judge yourself or others as though you or they are unworthy of love. This means suspending your need to be right in favor of being kind toward yourself and others, and deliberately extending kindness everywhere. This means giving love to yourself and others rather than demanding love. This means your loving gesture of kindness is heartfelt because you feel love flowing from within--not because you want something in return. A tall order? Not really, unless you believe that it's going to be difficult.
