“Action expresses priorities.”
― Mahatma Gandhi
DEFINITIONS
The Master had a childlike fascination for modern inventions. He could not get over his amazement at the pocket calculator when he saw one.
Later he said, good-naturedly, "A lot of people seem to have those little pocket calculators, but nothing in their pockets worth calculating"!
Weeks later, when a visitor asked him what he taught his disciples, he said,"To get their priorities right: Better have the money than calculate it; better have the experience than define it".
~Anthony de Mello

Ours is a society that has perfected its means yet neglected its meaning. -- Albert Einstein
“Things which matter most must never be at the mercy of things which matter least.”― Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
“Most of us spend too much time on what is urgent and not enough time on what is important.”― Stephen R. Covey
“It is not a daily increase, but a daily decrease. Hack away at the inessentials.”― Bruce Lee
“A simple life is not seeing how little we can get by with—that’s poverty—but how efficiently we can put first things first. . . . When you’re clear about your purpose and your priorities, you can painlessly discard whatever does not support these, whether it’s clutter in your cabinets or commitments on your calendar.”― Victoria Moran
P.S:
What would life be like, if I could live in a state of total consciousness at all times?
What if,I could check my priorities more often…and be willing to “painlessly discard” whatever I need to“whether it’s clutter in” my “cabinets or commitments on”my “calendar.”
…. for visiting the TREASURE TROVE today.
Namaste,
Bhagya
