Join 📚 Armand's Highlights
A batch of the best highlights from what Armand's read, .
In chapter 9, I explained that life is always moving—there’s always a trickle forming around the dam. When we focus on this trickle, we start to notice life’s natural movement. As we move through our pain, be it physical, emotional, or spiritual, we begin to relax our shame, maybe even laugh about it, and release it along with everything else that isn’t serving us. The trickle begins to grow, eventually bursting the dam that blocks us. The impossible becomes possible, and we find ourselves rising to meet our own life force in ways we never imagined.
The Well-Lived Life

You also falsely think that your fears protect you, that your beliefs have made you what you are, and that your attachments make your life exciting and secure. You fail to see that they are actually a screen between you and life’s symphony. It is quite impossible, of course, to be fully conscious of every note in life’s symphony. But if your spirit becomes unclogged and your senses open, you will begin to perceive things as they really are. You will begin to interact with reality, and you will be entranced by the harmonies of the universe.
Stop Fixing Yourself
Anthony de Mello
The 20s are easy. Almost everything people think they want turns out to be indirectly about wanting sex or a partner (or dealing with inability to get them). Once you sort out your feelings about that, motivation around other things gets much simpler. Things get messy at age 30.
