Rise above the need
+++++++++++++++++++

Instead of focusing so intently on what you can get, consider
what you can let go. Lighten your load and become more
nimble, peaceful and powerful.

Some of the things you so desperately think you need, you do
not need at all. As your needs diminish, your freedom and
richness grow.

There's nothing you must have in order to be. Devote some of
your life to simply being, and know the liberation that
comes from letting go of yourself.

Ambition, intention and disciplined effort will bring you
much in this world. Always remember, though, that there is
more to life than the success the world confers.

When you act out of need you will struggle from a position
of weakness. Rise above the need, and you are free to
achieve without limitation.

Remember that fulfillment is not about getting all that you
need. Fulfillment is knowing the freedom to be all that you
are.
