A Life Lesson

A grandfather tells his grandson, "I have two wolves that are living in my heart. One is short tempered, vengeful and violent. The other is gentle, patient and compassionate...and they are at war in my heart." 
"Which one of them will win the war in your heart?" asks the boy. 
The old man answers "The one that I feed."

Quote - Swami Vivekanada

Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life, think of it, dream of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone.  This is the way to success.
~Swami Vivekananda

Inspiration to be the best that you already are

Studying for my midterm test in my Yoga TT class I came across this quote that I can't remember reading before, but it hit a note with me this time around and I thought I should share it. Enjoy!


Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually who are you not to be? Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to so the same. As we are liberated from our fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
