Our minds are shaped by the modern world but originate in nature, and we have suffered as a result of this disconnect.
Don’t spend a lot of time imagining the worst-case scenario. It rarely goes down as you imagine it will, and if by some fluke it does, you will have lived it twice.
When you plant a tree, if it doesn’t grow well, you don’t blame the tree. You look into the reasons it isn’t doing well. It may need fertilizer or more water or less sun. We never blame the tree.
Sometimes you don’t feel the weight of something you’ve been carrying until you feel the weight of its release.
A mind is like a parachute. It doesn’t work if it isn’t open.
You are not a drop in the ocean. You are the entire ocean in a drop.
You’ve been criticising yourself for years and it hasn’t worked. Try approving of yourself and see what happens.

If you don’t learn about each other, you do not understand each other, and you don’t hide warts and all, both sides, then you’re forever going to repeat history.
