The power of attention is much greater than the force of self-restraint.

When do you manipulate others for your own advantage? When I notice myself doing it, usually it is when I am feeling insecure.

From our immersion in scarcity arise the habits of scarcity. From the scarcity of time arises the habit of hurrying. From the scarcity of money comes the habit of greed. From the scarcity of attention comes the habit of showing off. From the scarcity of meaningful labor comes the habit of laziness. From the scarcity of unconditional acceptance comes the habit of manipulation.

Each experience of love nudges us toward the Story of Interbeing, because it only fits into that story and defies the logic of Separation.

We are at our most powerful the moment we no longer need to be powerful.

YOU are your greatest asset.
