#1 Until someone recognizes that thought is the source of their experience, they have no choice but to focus their efforts on fixing, changing, or otherwise altering those external factors in an attempt to improve their experience of life. Once they recognize thought as the missing link between the infinite creative potential of the mind and the individual experience of life, the compulsion to do something to improve their situation diminishes.

#2 The three principles at the heart of the human experience are mind, body, and spirit. When we understand these principles, we can tap into the unknown as the source of both inspiration and creation.

#3 The question of who you are is different from the question of whether or not you have amnesia. You can view the question of who you are in a different light by considering the question of the University as laid out by British philosopher Gilbert Ryle in his book The Concept of Mind.

#4 The paradox of self-improvement is that we are trying to improve something that doesn’t exist: the separate self. We are nothing, but we are also everything, and in that paradox lies the secret to everything.
