How to find Patience, Peace & Meaning



1.         Living in the moment is a mental skill, a matter 
of training the mind and it means it can be learned. 
The most effective way to accomplish a lot is to do one 
thing at a time and do it well.

2.         Efficiency comes from complete concentration 
on one thing at a time even when one has to manage 
several tasks. The secret of unbroken flow of attention 
characterizes peak performance.

3.         Hurry sickness syndrome        of time driven 
behavior is closely associated with heart disease.  It 
includes “poly phasic thinking”, not just trying to do 
many things in too little time, but trying to think several 
think at once.

4.         Type a Behavior- is a continuous struggle to 
accomplish more and more things in less and less 
time, frequently in the face of opposition, real or imagined 
from other person.  Driven by aggressive need to compete.

5.         Type B Behavior-   Slowed down, more patient 
and find meaning, love and rich relationship in life.   
We don’t have to change the circumstances around us; 
we simply need a mind that is quiet, calm and kind.

6.         Every moment is a door way to meaning, purpose 
and joy.  The key is unharmed mind.  It is not enough to be 
busy; the question is what are you busy about?

7.         I realized that the people I know who seemed happiest 
were often uneducated and unknown.  Happiness has nothing
to do with possessions, position, wealth, social status or 
anything else outside.  A village teacher could be as happy 
as a cosmopolitan professor.  Fulfillment did not come from 
any particular activity, place or circumstances.  Perhaps 
it really could only be found within.

8.         Your own gums are better than someone’s teeth.  
Follow your star. 

9.         Living completely in the present is the secret of 
an unhurried mind.  When the mind is not rushing about 
in a hurry it is calm and alert and ready for anything.  
 A calm mind sees deeply which opens the door for 
tremendous discoveries, rich relationships, excellence in work, 
a quiet sense of joy.
