The everyday practice is simply to develop a complete acceptance and openness to all situations and emotions, and to all people, experiencing everything totally without mental reservations and blockages, so that one never withdraws or centralizes into oneself.

Experience life in all possible ways — good-bad, bitter-sweet, dark-light,
summer-winter. Experience all the dualities.
Don't be afraid of experience, because
the more experience you have, the more
mature you become.

When we practice metta, we open continuously to the truth of our actual experience, changing our relationship to life.

The personal life deeply lived always expands into truths beyond itself.

It is a lifetime accumulation of deliberate practice that again and again ends up explaining excellence.

[W]hen your practice is calm and ordinary, everyday life itself is enlightenment.

Learning what you know is something you have to do every day and every moment.

But if you make your best effort just to continue your practice with your whole mind and body, without gaining ideas, then whatever you do will be true practice.

Throughout your life advance daily, becoming more skillful than yesterday, more skillful than today. This is never-ending.

Your ultimate life experience and legacy is being built moment by moment, day by day. Your story is being crafted by your every action, all leading somewhere, all leading to what one hopes will be a magnificent crescendo.

View life as a continuous learning experience.

Success is a way of being and adapting and growing that gets easier the more you practice

Day by day, what you do is who you become.

The beauty of practice is that it transforms us so that we outgrow our original intentions — and keep going! Our motivations for practicing evolve as we mature.
