“But in the end one also has to understand that the needs that religion has satisfied and philosophy is now supposed to satisfy are not immutable; they can be weakened and exterminated. Consider, for example, that Christian distress of mind that comes from sighing over ones inner depravity and care for ones salvation - all concepts originating in nothing but errors of reason and deserving, not satisfaction, but obliteration.” NeedsMindEndsReasonPhilosophyCareChristianChristianityExampleConceptsSalvationErrorsSatisfactionSatisfiedDistressDeservingDepravity Book:Nietzsche: Human, All Too Human: A Book for Free Spirits Source: Nietzsche: Human, All Too Human: A Book for Free Spirits
“Yet housekeeping actually offers more opportunities for savoring achievement than almost any other work I can think of. Each of its regular routines brings satisfaction when it is completed. These routines echo the rhythm of life, and the housekeeping rhythm is the rhythm of the body. You get satisfaction not only from the sense of order, cleanliness, freshness, peace and plenty restored, but from the knowledge that you yourself and those you care about are going to enjoy these benefits.” ThinkingI CanBodyCareOrderOpportunityEnjoyOffersAchievementBenefitsSatisfactionRhythmPlentyEchoesCleanlinessFreshnessHousekeepingSavoringRhythm Of Life Author:Cheryl Mendelson
“Another simple and powerful way to dissolve problems is not to dwell upon the outcome of your actions. Instead, learn to value each action (no matter how small or large), to do it with complete attention. Your joy and satisfaction comes from doing each action with a whole heart and mind. Results and consequences then take care of themselves. When you are not absorbed by concern for outcomes, how much anxiety can you ever have?” WayMindHeartMatterWholeProblemCareActionJoyValuesSimpleResultsPowerfulAttentionLearningAnxietyConsequenceConcernSatisfactionTake CareOutcomesHeart And MindPower Of The Mind Author:Brenda Shoshanna

“Children have an anxious concern for living beings, and the satisfaction of this instinct fills them with delight. It is therefore easy to interest them in taking care of plants and especially of animals. Nothing awakens foresight in a small child such as this. When he knows that animals have need of him, that little plants will dry up if he does not water them, he binds together with a new thread of love today's passing moments with those of the morrow.” IfsKnowsNeedsChildrenLittlesDoeMomentsCareTodayTogetherEasyInterestWaterAnimalConcernPlantInstinctSatisfactionDelightPassingPassingsDryAnxiousThreadForesightMorrowSmall ChildDry UpPassing Moments Author:Maria Montessori
