question thoughts

"Nothing can cost you someone you love. The only thing that can cost you your husband is if you believe a thought. That's how you move away from him. That's how the marriage ends. You are one with your husband until you believe the thought that he should look a certain way, he should give you something, he should be something other than what he is. That's how you divorce him. Right then and there you have lost your marriage. "



"The only time we suffer is when we believe a thought that argues with what is. When the mind is perfectly clear, what is is what we want."

"I finally figured out to have everything I want. It's actually deceptively simple. The way to have everything I want is to simply want everything I have."

yes. when we educate ourselves, for example, we change our thoughts and therefore actions.

but katie's work is not focused on that aspect of "thoughts".

it is focused on those thoughts which cause us stress, and therefore unhappiness...

This is a quote I really like that's just too long to have as a sig:

"Everywhere and at all times it is in your power to accept reverently your present condition, to behave justly to those about you, and to exert your skill to control your thoughts, that nothing shall steal into them without being well examined." – Marcus Aurelius
