The Rules For Being Human
When you were born, you didn't
come with an owner's manual; these guidelines make life work better.
- You will receive a body.
You may like it or hate it, but it's the
only thing you are sure to keep for the rest of your life.
- You will learn lessons.
You are enrolled in a full-time informal
school called "Life on Planet Earth." Every person or
incident is the Universal Teacher.
- There are no mistakes, only lessons.
Growth is a process of
experimentation. "Failures" are as much a part of the
process as "success."
- A lesson is repeated until learned.
It is presented to you in
various forms until you learn it -- then you can go on to the next
lesson.
- If you don't learn easy lessons, they get harder.
External problems
are a precise reflection of your internal state. When you clear inner
obstructions, your outside world changes. Pain is how the universe
gets your attention.
- You will know you've learned a lesson when your actions change.
Wisdom is practice. A little of something is better than a lot of
nothing.
- "There" is no better than "here."
When your
"there" becomes a "here" you will simply obtain
another "there" that again looks better than
"here."
- Others are only mirrors of you.
You cannot love or hate something
about another unless it reflects something you love or hate in
yourself.
- Your life is up to you.
Life provides the canvas; you do the
painting. Take charge of your life --or someone else will.
- You always get what you want.
Your subconscious rightfully
determines what energies, experiences, and people you attract --
therefore, the only foolproof way to know what you want is to see what
you have. There are no victims, only students.
- There is no right or wrong, but there are consequences.
Moralizing
doesn't help. Judgments only hold the patterns in place. Just do your
best.
- Your answers lie inside you.
Children need guidance from others; as
we mature, we trust our hearts, where the Laws of Spirit are written.
You know more than you have heard or read or been told.
All you need
to do is to look, listen, and trust.
- You will forget all this.
- You can remember any time you wish.
