The key to your happiness lies in how your mind responds to them.

All beings are the owners of their karma. Their happiness and unhappiness depend upon their actions, not upon my wishes for them.

If you follow your bliss, you put yourself on a kind of track, which has been there all the while waiting for you, and the life that you ought to be living is the one you are living.

Practice not being attached. Let go of constant desire, grasping, and greed. Let go of constant aversion, dislike, and hate.

Realize the limitations of success and stuff and wealth. Nothing outside of yourself gives you happiness.

Reflect on impermanence and change in life.

Drop any expectations but do take note of your intentions.

Do not waste time doubting or analyzing your practice, your “progress.”

Notice when you become aware of the thought or image—without judgment.
