If others feel they have to change you, that means they really don't love you just the way you are. So why be with someone if you're not the way he o… - Don Miguel Ruiz

Sva su ljudska bića pripovjedači koji pričaju sa svojega vlastitog, jedinstvenog stajališta. Kad to shvatimo,
više nećemo osjećati potrebu da svoju priču namećemo drugima ili branimo ono u što vjerujemo. Umjesto toga,
sve ćemo ljude promatrati kao umjetnike koji imaju pravo stvarati vlastitu umjetnost.

Doing your best, you are going to live your life intensely. You are going to be productive, you are going to be good to yourself, because you will be giving yourself to your family, to your community, to everything. But it is the action that is going to make you feel intensely happy. When you always do your best, you take action. Doing your best is taking the action because you love it, not because you’re expecting a reward. Most people do exactly the opposite: They only take action when they expect a reward, and they don’t enjoy the action. And that’s the reason why they don’t do their best.

Humans have a need to explain and justify everything; we have a need for knowledge, and we make assumptions to fulfill our need to know.
