Your work is to discover your work and then with all your heart to give yourself to it. That’s the mark of a true professional.
To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue.
Faith is nourishment, virtuous deeds are a shelter, wisdom is light by day and right mindfulness is protection by night.
Be determined. The Tempter masters the lazy and irresolute man who dwells on the attractive side of things, ungoverned in his senses, and unrestrained in his food, like the wind overcomes a rotten tree.
Develop a mind of equilibrium. You will always be getting praise and blame, but do not let either affect poise of mind: follow calmness, the absence of pride.
We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world.
