“With the attention I got on my wealth, I thought I would have become a source of resentment, but it is just the other way around - it just generates that much more ambition in many people.” PeopleWayWealthAttentionSourceAmbitionResentment Author:Azim Premji
“There is no such thing as a boring person: everyone has stories and insights worth sharing. While on the road, we let our phones or laptops take up our attention. By doing that, we might miss out on the chance to learn and absorb ideas and inspiration from an unexpected source: our fellow travelers.” PersonsIdeasStoriesInspirationMightChanceAttentionMissingSourceFellowsPhonesBoringInsightUnexpectedTravelerLaptopsFellow TravelersEveryone Has A StoryIdeas And InspirationBoring Person Author:Richard Branson
“We accepted a definition of ourselves which confined the self to the source and to the limitations of conscious attention. This definition is miserably insufficient, for in fact we know how to grow brains and eyes, ears and fingers, hearts and bones, in just the same way that we know how to walk and breathe, talk and think - only we can't put it into words. Words are too slow and too clumsy for describing such things, and conscious attention is too narrow for keeping track of all their details.” ThinkingKnowsWayHeartSelfFactsEyeGrowsWalksAttentionBrainKnow HowSourceConsciousEarsFingersTrackDefinitionsDetailsBonesBreatheAcceptedLimitationConfinedDescribingClumsyInsufficient Author:Alan Watts
“We need to find secular ways to cultivate warm-heartedness. We need secular ways to educate ourselves about inner values. The source of a happy life is within us.

“While it does, and should, feel good to be appreciated by another person, if you are dependent upon their appreciation to feel good, you will not be able to consistently feel good, because no other person has the ability, or a responsibility, to hold you as their singular, positive object of attention. Your Inner Being, however, the Source within you, always holds you, with no exceptions, as a constant object of appreciation. So if you will tune your thoughts and actions to that consistent Vibration of Well-Being flowing forth from your Inner Being-you will thrive under any and all conditions.” IfsFeelsShouldWellsPersonsDoeAbleActionAbilityAttentionResponsibilityConditionsObjectsSourceConstantAppreciationFeel GoodWell BeingConsistentDependentTunesThriveExceptionWithin YouConsistentlyAppreciatedVibrationsThoughts And Actions Book:The Vortex: Where the Law of Attraction Assembles All Cooperative Relationships Source: The Vortex: Where the Law of Attraction Assembles All Cooperative Relationships
“Relationships matter above all, and that you build relationships by making yourself useful, not annoying.

“It is a great tragedy when those who are afflicted with adversity or a source of hopelessness turn their backs on prayer. To their peril, they ignore that spiritual lifeline just at the time when their attention to it most needs to be intensified. By so doing they cut themselves of from revelation and inspiration and deprive themselves of hearing the Lord's voice. They give up the prospect of gaining the very hope and comfort for which their hearts yearn.” NeedsGivingHeartInspirationSpiritualTurnsVoicePrayerAttentionLordCuttingSourceComfortGiving UpTragedyAdversityHearingRevelationsSpiritual LifeHopelessnessPerilGreat TragedyLifelines Author:David S.
