When we ask advice we are usually looking for an accomplice. 

Charles Varlet de La Grange, Pensées, 1872

What a profound thought! It applies to advice, to getting readings, even at times to therapy.

When we are looking for advice and for answers, we need to really understand why we are asking the question. Are we looking for permission or approval? Are we looking for comfort? Or do we really want to know what best or what is really going to happen in any given situation?

What we think, we become.  All that we are arises with our thoughts.  With our thoughts, we make the world.

Everyone is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it ends up thinking it’s stupid. ~Albert Einstein

This comment is amazing.  Since all of our gifts are singular and unique, the “system” we live in only recognizes certain types of gifts and rejects those who don’t have those gifts.  However, we all do have great gifts!  Jim1537

Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude.

Thomas Jefferson
