In order to become a success, a business doesn’t just have to do well, it has to do better than its competitors. Being number one isn’t just about bragging rights. Often it means the difference between prospering and merely hanging on.
You say: “He lost his life” or “my life”, as if life were something that you can possess or lose. The truth is: you don’t have a life, you are life. The One Life, the one consciousness that pervades the entire universe and takes temporary form to experience itself as a stone or blade of grass, as an animal, a person, a star or a galaxy.
Above the cloud with its shadow is the star with its light. Above all things reverence thyself.
True wisdom is less presuming than folly. The wise man doubteth often, and changeth his mind; the fool is obstinate, and doubteth not; he knoweth all things but his own ignorance… To be satisfied with a little, is the greatest wisdom; and he that increaseth his riches, increaseth his cares; but a contented mind is a hidden treasure, and trouble findeth it not.
I do not believe in a fate that falls on men however they act; but I do believe in a fate that falls on them unless they act.
