More quotes by Dan Millman
So trust the process of your life unfolding, and know with certainty, through the peaks and valleys of your journey, that your soul rests safe and secure in the arms of God.
Dan Millman
The secret of change consists in concentrating one's energy to create the new, and not to fight against the old.
Dan Millman
If we agree on everything, only one of us is necessary.
Dan Millman
Our practices - our most spiritual practices - are hanging laundry on the line, raising children, building strong relationships, practicing kindness as much as we can, striving for excellence in the workplace, and developing deeper self-knowledge. I wrote The Four Purposes of Life to assist in these endeavors.
Dan Millman
Bad people don't go to hell, they are already there.
Dan Millman
The universe does not judge us it only provides consequences and lessons and opportunities to balance and learn through the law of cause and effect. Compassion is the recognition that we are each doing the best we can within the limits of our current beliefs and capacities.
Dan Millman
Faith is our direct link to universal wisdom, reminding us that we know more than we have heard or read or studied that we have only to look, listen, and trust the love and wisdom of the Universal Spirit working through us all.
Dan Millman
Choice means giving up something you want for something else you want more.
Dan Millman
Faith does not rely on knowing anything with certainty. It requires only the courage to accept that whatever happens is for the highest good.
Dan Millman
Life is not suffering it's just that you will suffer it, rather than enjoy it, until you let go of your mind's attachments and just go for the ride freely, no matter what happens.
Dan Millman
Unless the desire to change remains strong, body and mind tend to return to old, familiar patterns. It takes time-from three to six months-for old habits to become obsolete. By the end of that time, you'll have adapted to a new pattern. In a sense, you'll have found a new way of life.
Dan Millman
The light will disturb us when we're comfortable, and comfort us when we're disturbed. We turn to spirit for help when our foundations are shaking only to find out that it is spirit who is shaking them!
Dan Millman
Your fears are not walls, but hurdles. Courage is not the absence of fear, but the conquering of it.
Dan Millman
I have an almost religious zeal... not for technology per se, but for the Internet which is for me, the nervous system of mother Earth, which I see as a living creature, linking up.
Dan Millman
The hours of your life are the most valuable currency you will ever have. How will you spend them?
Dan Millman
Life comes at us in waves. We can't predict or control those waves, but we can learn to surf
Dan Millman
It's better to make a mistake with the full force of your being than to timidly avoid mistakes with a trembling spirit. Responsibility means recognizing both pleasure and price, action and consequence, then making a choice.
Dan Millman
Every positive change - every jump to a higher level of energy and awareness - involves a rite of passage. Each time to ascend to a higher rung on the ladder of personal evolution, we must go through a period of discomfort, of initiation. I have never found an exception.
Dan Millman
everyone tells you what's good for you. they don't want you to find your own answers. they want you to believe theirs.
Dan Millman
Ultimately, fear of failure generates a vicious circle that creates what is most feared. To break this cycle, you need to make peace with failure. It isn't enough to merely tolerate it you need to appreciate the failure and use it.
Dan Millman
