Often people attempt to live their lives backwards:
they try to have
more things, or more money, in order
to do more of what they want so they will be happier.
The way it actually works is the reverse. You must
first be who you really are, then, do
what you need to do,
in order to have what you want.
Margaret Young
The mind is
described as having two main aspects:
clarity and knowing; meaning that the mind is clear,
formless
and allows for objects to arise in it, and that the mind
is knowing, an
awareness, a consciousness which
can engage with objects.
"What is the mind? It is a phenomenon that is not body,
not substantial, has no form, no
shape, no color,
but, like a mirror, can clearly reflect objects."
Lama Zopa Rinpoche
“They are makers of
themselves”
By virtue of the thoughts which they choose and encourage;
that mind is
the master
weaver, both of the inner garment of character
and the outer garment of
circumstance,
and that, as they man have hitherto woven in
ignorance and pain they
may now weave in
enlightenment and happiness.
--James Allen
"Formal
education will make you a living;
self-education will make you a fortune."

A man’s mind may be likened to a garden,
which may be
intelligently cultivated or
allowed to run wild; but whether cultivated or neglected,
it
must, and will, bring forth.
If no useful seeds are put into it,
then an abundance of
useless weed seeds will fall therein,
and will continue to produce their kind.
As A Man Thinketh by James
