"Acceptance means: For now, this is what..." - Quote by Eckhart Tolle

“When you are present, when your attention is fully in the Now, Presence will flow into and transform what you do. There will be a quality and power in it. You are present when what you are doing is not primarily a means to an end (money, prestige, winning) but fulfilling in itself, when there is joy and aliveness in what you do.”

“Always work with the present moment, not against it. Make it your friend and ally, not your enemy. This will miraculously transform your whole life.”

“When you want to arrive at your goal more than you want to be doing what you are doing, you become stressed.”

“How sweet it would be to treat men and things, for an hour, for just what they are!”

“Beyond what we wishand what we fear may happenwe have another life,as clear and free as a mountain stream.”

“Never regret anything because at one time it was exactly what you wanted.”

“Life is like music for its own sake. We are living in an eternal now, and when we listen to music we are not listening to the past, we are not listening to the future, we are listening to an expanded present.”

“My friend, the sufi is the friend of the present moment. To say tomorrow is not our way.”

“All those things at which thou wishest to arrive by a circuitous road, thou canst have now, if thou dost not refuse them to thyself.”
