The Wisdom of the Tao

The notes below are the essence I gleaned from Wayne Dyer 's book, “The Wisdom of the Tao”. If you have a moment would be interested in your response as to which are your top 3 (with or without comments).  Blessings ...

 1. The difference in being “no where” and being “now here” is ...
         ... where you place the space between words and so it is in life.
 2. Shift from having fears to having curiosities about those fears.
 3. To be truly free … take your attachments and let them go.
 4. Shift from control to trust.
 5. Shift from the feeling of entitlement to that of being humble.
 6. Don’t get caught in needing more and more … but learn to live in a feeling of contentment.
 7. **If there is just one prayer you should say every day …
          ... it is the prayer that says “Thank you God”.
 8. Move from rigid thoughts to “soft” thoughts.
 9. Make flexibility in thought your companion in life.
10. There is a time for everything … good and bad.
11. True nobility is rooted in humility.
12. The journey if a 1000 miles begins with one step
13. Be connected to thoughts of well being
14. See your self not as being separate but as being connected to everything
15. **Having wisdom is knowing that “I am nothing”.
       Having Love is knowing that “I am everything”.
16. Being strong is being able to bend.
17. **When you have the choice of being “right” or being “kind” … be kind.
18. There is no way to happiness … Happiness is the way.

And so it is!
