“How do you not let things bother you? By placing yourself out of the physical and emotional range of that which is bothering you.”

“Allow yourself, if only for a short moment, to go to that place where you cannot possibly think of one thing that you need to do. Go there and see what happens.”

“If you let your heart rule you, you’ll have a good ruler by which to measure things. This can be called wisdom.”

“Listen, do yourself a favor. If you ask someone about something such as, “How are the kids,” make sure you really want to know.”

“If you have to separate yourself from things, or someone else, do it without a big attitude.”

“Once you set out for something, there may be obstacles. Avoid that which you feel safe to avoid, and approach that which you feel safe to approach. That’s how we go through the obstacles.”

“If you feel trapped in a situation and are complaining about it, figure out how to untrap yourself and stop complaining. Save your energy for further figuring out and when there is an increase in courage.”
