How to Not Let Things Bother You

Ships don't sink because of the water around them; ships sink because of the water that gets in them. Don't let what's happening around you get inside you and weigh you down.
Stop Things Bothering You

This quote from tinybuddha.com is something that tells us to keep our guard up. If you use this metaphor it will be easier to do so.

Is there such a thing as an anxiety attack? Anxiety really does not attack at all. We create it ourselves and if we block out things that ‘get to us’ inside then anxiety itself never gets manifested.

How to Zen

Here is a little guideline on how to bring more peace into your life. By doing less and not multi-tasking so much it is easier to be at peace. While doing your chores like washing the dishes make it a meditation and imagine yourself bathing the baby Buddha. It makes doing the dishes much easier.

How Worrying Hurts

Worrying does not take away tomorrow's troubles. It takes away today's peace.
How Worrying Hurts

This tinybuddha.com quote is a nice little reminder of how worrying does no good.

If something comes up that you can do something about it makes no sense to worry, doesn’t it?

However, if something comes up that you can do nothing about worrying does not help either does it?

How We See Things

We do not see things as they are. We see them as we are.
How We See Things

This is a really good thought-provoking quote.

Two people will look at exactly the same thing and see completely different things. Whether it is a businessman seeing opportunity while others see failure or someone that sees someone sweeping a sidewalk as a beautiful thing or meaning nothing.

What is truly inside of you is what you will see, perceive the world, and ultimately will be decided for you on how your spirit will make you feel. This quote by “The Talmud” is something that I never heard before nor read anything about The Talmud so I cannot say anything about what they are like but I do agree strongly with this particular quote and included it to use for one of my meditations.

According to Wikipedia, the Talmud is the central text of Rabbinic Judaism and the primary source of Jewish religious law and Jewish theology.

Body, Mind, and Spirit

I am perfectly healthy in body, mind, and spirit.
Body, Mind, and Spirit

One of the things that I think to myself when doing my manifestation meditations is from an old quote Healthy, Wealthy, and Wise.

Do you recognize what quote these words are from? If not, it is from the quote, “Early to bed, early to rise makes one healthy, wealthy, and wise”.

I am grateful for…

We often take for granted the very things that most deserve our gratitude.
I am grateful for…

Too many times in life we take things for granted that are actually very important in our lives and once it is gone we wished we paid more attention to it.

When driving down the road be grateful that our taxes take care of the roads for us. Be grateful for our liver cleaning out our system. Be grateful for your parents because one day they will be gone and you’ll wish that you talked to them more to gain more insight.

I am Grateful

Today I am grateful, for all the people that are loving and kind to me.
I am Grateful

Gratefulness is a subject that is mentioned quite a few times on this website, online, and courses.

If you are truly grateful for what you have your life will be more abundant and you will have less ‘desire’ for wanting more ‘stuff’.

It recommended by Wayne Dyer to have one meditation a day on everything that you are grateful for and have another meditation on manifesting what you want in your life. The meditation CD that Wayne talks about this is called, “Meditations for Manifesting” but it first came about from his Japa Meditation.

I highly recommend this meditation tape to listen to along with the much longer detailed course, “Manifest Your Destiny“. If you allow it, it will help change your life for the better and give you a better outlook on life. I go back and re-listen to it from time to time and it is one of those courses that will give you something new to learn every time because of what was going on in your life at the time.

I Want Happiness

A man once told Buddha, "I want Happiness." Buddha replied, "First, remove 'I'; that's ego. Then remove 'want'; that's desire. And now all you're left with is happiness."
I Want Happiness

This quote from the Buddha is a great play on words and I love it!

Some people call Buddha a god but he was just a prince (philosopher) that traveled the land and learned a lot about life then shared what he learned about life to everyone and developed a following.

An unknown fact about Buddha is that he had very strict rules for his followers such as keeping lust under control, etc. You can read more about it on this Wikipedia page entitled, “Buddhism and Sexuality“.

If you get rid of ego and desire all you are left with is happiness and knowing the why behind it makes the happiness last longer.
