Increase awareness and attentiveness.

"If we can change our mind,
we can change our world,
and that's the world we experience."
"Inner conditions of well being will determine the outer conditions of life."
"Life is not just remembering the past, and projecting in the future.
Life includes each and every moment that we live.
The quality of the present moment is very important,
that's what today is made of.
If we take care of all the minutes and the seconds
then we can take care of ourselves."
"Our states of mind need to be improved.
The states of mind which are detrimental to the quality of being happy are,
hatred, resentment, grudge, nagging jealousy, obsessive desires, etc.
All those states of mind make our life miserable by inducing us
to act and speak in a way that also cause suffering around us."
"Excessive preoccupation with oneself,
doing everything for oneself,
sometime with the detriment of others well being,
is absolutely not going to work.
If selfish happiness is the goal of our life
then that life is soon going to be without any goal
because it simply cannot work."
