In fact, people think you have to be stressed to be successful. They think if you are not stressed, something is wrong with you.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Suffering begins when you mentally label a situation as bad. That causes an emotional contraction. When you let it be, without naming it, enormous power is available to you. The contraction cuts you off from that power, the power of life itself.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Peace is your priority, not saving the world. That follows that.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Accept the present moment and find the perfection that is deeper than any form and untouched by time.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Enlightened groups can exist, as long as the individuals' sense of identity is not derived from a mentally defined image of us.

Eckhart Tolle
Image
So do not be concerned with the fruit of your action-just give attention to the action itself. The fruit will come of its own accord.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Any action is often better than no action, especially if you have been stuck in an unhappy situation for a long time. If it is a mistake, at least you learn something, in which case it's no longer a mistake. If you remain stuck, you learn nothing.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
Welcome to the present moment. Here. Now. The only moment there ever is.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
The unchecked striving for more, for endless growth, is a dysfunction and a disease. It is the same dysfunction the cancerous cell manifests, whose only goal is to multiply itself, unaware that it is bringing about its own destruction by destroying the organism of which it is a part.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
For years my life alternated between depression and acute anxiety. One night I woke up in a state of dread and intense fear, more intense than I had ever experienced before. Life seemed meaningless, barren, hostile. It became so unbearable that suddenly the thought came into my mind, I cannot live with myself any longer.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
As long as we define ourselves in terms of our pain and our problems, we will never be free from them.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
And whenever you feel that essence in another, you also feel it in yourself.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
A belief may be comforting. Only through your own experience, however, does it become liberating.
