No.1
from Brian:
Let’s wrap up with the important
question:
What are YOU here to do?
What’s your specific vocation or
mission in life?
We all have one.
What’s yours?
Clear? Write it down! Live it!

No.2
from Brian:
Slooooowwww down.
Find the stillness.
Be still.
And watch your power grow!

No.3
from Brian:
“When you meet anyone, treat
the event as a holy encounter.”
Namaste. It’s one of my favorite
words.
It’s Sanskrit and means “I bow
to the divine within you.”
May we make every encounter
we have today an opportunity to
see the divine within ourselves
and others.
Namaste.

No.4
from Brian:
The essence of Tolle’s work can
certainly be distilled into these
three words:
“One With Life.”
Take a deep breath, smile.
And enjoy the God within you...

No.5
from Brian:
How about you? Where’s your
locus of control? The book is all
about empowering you to step
into your role as a conscious
creator of your reality. It’s an
incredibly powerful thing to do.
* nudges you *
What are you waiting for?

No.6
from Brian:
‘If you shoot for the stars, you’ll
at least hit the moon.’ Poor
people don’t even shoot for the
ceiling in their house, and then
they wonder why they’re not
successful.”
How great is that? What are you
shooting for?!? Never give up.
Don’t compromise your vision.
(I KNOW you have a big one if
you’re honest with yourself.)

No.7
from Brian:
Affluence. Another beautiful
word. Did you know the word
literally means “abundant
flow”? That rocks.
Get in the FLOW of the
universe. Express yourself.
And you will experience every
sense of the beautiful word
“affluence.”

No.8
from Brian:
Seligman and his wealth of
research speaks LOUDLY that
we need to figure out what our
strengths are and use them often.
So, what are your strengths?
What are you great at? What do
you most enjoy doing? (Good
news is that they all usually go
together. :)

No.9
from Brian:
But, news flash: The pain is not
going away. Not until we commit
to our highest self. To a goal
worthy of our potential.
So, how about you? What’s
YOUR goal? Still refining it?
Here’s a short-cut: What would
you do if you weren’t afraid?
Combine that with: If you were
ABSOLUTELY GUARANTEED
to succeed, what would you do?

No.10
from Brian:
“He is a letter to everyone. You
open it. It says, ‘Live!’”
As Gandhi once said, “My life is
my message.”
What is the message of your
life?
What does your “letter” say to
the world?
Mine?
“Live!!!!”

No.11
from Brian:
“Sow a thought and you reap an
action; sow an act and you reap
a habit; sow a habit and you
reap a character; sow a character
and you reap a destiny.”
Amen. How are your thoughts?
Your actions? Your habits? Your
character? Trace them closely.
Shape them consciously. Reap
your destiny…

No.12
from Brian:
“One must still have chaos in
oneself to be able to give birth
to a dancing star.”
Isn’t that a beautiful image? Feel
that chaos within?! Here’s a
switch: Let’s EMBRACE it.
Let’s not fight it. Deep breath in.
Exhale. Relax into it a bit.
Smile. Know you’re growing
and that it’s this chaos that gives
birth to our dancing star... Oh,
yah. And definitely Dance.

No.13
from Brian:
“Cherish your visions, cherish
your ideals, cherish the music
that stirs in your heart...”
Don’t flinch, don’t compromise,
surround yourself with people
who ‘get you’ and if you “but
remain true to these ideals, your
world will at last be built” and if
you are still looking for that
ideal vision, keep on mining, my
friend...

No.14
from Brian:
I want to make sure you read
it. :)
Isn’t it kind of BIZARRE that
we spend years and tens of
thousands of dollars on our
educations and don’t spend a
minute or a dollar studying what
is arguably the most important
subject of our lives: LOVE?!?
I think so, too.

No.15
from Brian:
“You will not do incredible
things without an incredible
dream.”
You should get the book (if you
haven’t already decided to get
10 of them!!) for the chapter on
“Embracing the Last Taboo--
Being as “Unrealistic” as You
Can.”
It’s one big inspiring quote.

No.16
from Brian:
“It’s easy to get on the path of
mastery. The real challenge lies
in staying on it.”
How true is THAT?!?
...
My experience? Just do what
you say you’re going to do.
Again and again and again.

No.17
from Brian:
“Everything - a horse, a vine - is
created for some duty...For what
task, then, were you yourself
created? A man’s true delight is
to do the things he was made
for.” ...
So, the constant question: For
what were you created?!? What
makes you feel most
alive? ...What are your greatest
gifts and how are you giving
them to the world?!?

No.18
from Brian:
Are you fertilizing your fears by
not taking action? OK. Good.
Now what can you do to move
straight at your fears? What little
things can you do today to move
forward? Gimme three things
(they don’t need to be huge) that
you have been putting off:
1. ......................................
2. ......................................
3. ......................................
Good. Now do them.

No.19
from Brian:“You are to become
a creator, not a competitor; you
are going to get what you want,
but in such a way that when you
get it every other man will have
more than he has now.”
I love this distinction. Creator or
Competitor?Imagine choosing to
live from a place of pure
creativity... from a place of joy
and overflow... having fun as we
give our unique gifts to the
world...

No.20
from Brian:
It’s rather simple.
Three words: 1. Follow. 2. Your.
3. Bliss.
Key words: “bliss” and “your.”
Not someone else’s idea of your
bliss. Not what you think should
be your bliss. Not what you
think would impress the crowd
or appease the family.
YOUR bliss. What truly gets
you giddy.
