Don't trade your peace of mind

Don't trade your peace of mind for the opportunity to give someone else a piece of your mind. Your power does not come from the ability to put another person in their 'proper place' by making them feel small. Your power... lies in the ability to turn your thoughts in a direction that keeps you connected to the life-giving energy of your inner joy. The greatest lesson you can teach is one that demonstrates, through personal example, that we are each the predominant creative forces in our own lives and that no one has the power to deny our experience of well-being. When we make up our minds to consistently think on a higher plane, the people we encounter will naturally gravitate to their 'proper place' without us having to deal with the stress of trying to put them there. Put your thoughts in their proper place and everything else will take care of itself." ~ T.K. Coleman ~
