Mindfulness and Perspective
How we see and interpret the world can define the quality of our lives. These quotes look at the human experience through the lens of mindfulness, perspective, and the power of the mind in shaping our experiences.
- “Remember, it is not enough to be hit or insulted to be harmed, you must believe that you are being harmed. If someone succeeds in provoking you, realize that your mind is complicit in the provocation.”
- “When you are angry, you are just a character in someone else’s story.”
- “Not all noise deserves your attention.”
- “Tempus est umbra in mente - roughly translated, it means time is a shadow in the mind.”
- “If you don’t control your own mind, someone else will.”
