Pursue only what you can and should acquire. Never pursue what you can't and shouldn't acquire.

Gratitude can make us grow, and the resolve to return favors can help us succeed.

***

Feel thankful for the chances to hone ourselves: both good and ill fortune are our benefactors.

***

When good things happen, we should rejoice in, praise, encourage, and then learn from them in modesty.

***
To criticize less and praise more is a good way to avoid creating negative karma of speech.

***

An ordinary mind is a mind of utmost freedom and unsurpassed joy.
