Think Like a Monk: Train Your Mind for Peace and Purpose Every Day
von Jay Shetty
“Your identity is a mirror covered with dust. When you first look in the mirror, the truth of who you are and what you value is obscured. Clearing it may not be pleasant, but only when that dust is gone can you see your true reflection.” When you try to live your most authentic life, some of your relationships will be put in jeopardy. Losing them is a risk worth bearing; finding a way to keep them in your life is a challenge worth taking on.

Remember, saying whatever we want, whenever we want, however we want, is not freedom. Real freedom is not feeling the need to say these things.
It is better to live your own destiny imperfectly than to live an imitation of somebody else’s life with perfection.
When we tune out the opinions, expectations, and obligations of the world around us, we begin to hear ourselves.
