More From Joel Osteen

We cannot separate our lives from time. why is it that we are so extravagant, so thoughtless, in our waste of time, especially in youth, when we cling so tenaciously to life? you cannot separate a wasted hour from the same duration of your life. if you waste your time, you must waste your life. if you improve your time, you cannot help improving your life.
Time Duration Waste
Vexation of spirit is a waste of time negative thinking, don't you waste your thoughts verbal conflict is a waste of word physical conflict is a waste of flesh people will always be who they want and that's what really makes the world go round unconditional love is scarce.
Unconditional Love Love Is Thinking
The true enlightenment thinker, the true rationalist, never wants to talk anyone into anything. no, he does not even want to convince; all the time he is aware that he may be wrong. above all, he values the intellectual independence of others too highly to want to convince them in important matters. he would much rather invite contradiction, preferably in the form of rational and disciplined criticism. he seeks not to convince but to arouse - to challenge others to form free opinions.
Free Opinion Challenges Intellectual
Why they always look so serious in yoga? you make serious face like this, you scare away good energy. to meditate, only you must smile. smile with face, smile with mind, and good energy will come to you and clean away dirty energy. even smile in your liver. practice tonight at hotel. not to hurry, not to try too hard. too serious, you make you sick. you can calling the good energy with a smile. (from ketut liyer, the balinese healer)
Dirty Yoga Practice
When you walk into the presence of people who calibrate at the very highest energy levels, just being in their energy field, everything that is diseased or in disharmony is healed. when you bring a higher and a more loving energy to the presence of disorder or disharmony or disease, you are really bringing a healing energy. and that's what healing is involved with: it's no longer allowing yourself to wallow around in a process in which you tell yourself that you don't have the capacity to be able to transcend whatever it is that's bothering you or hurting you or killing you.
Hurt Healing Bothering You
To be beautiful means to be yourself.you don't need to be accepted by others. you need to accept yourself. when you are born a lotus flower, be a beautiful lotus flower, don't try to be a magnolia flower. if you crave acceptance and recognition and try to change yourself to fit what other people want you to be, you will suffer all your life. true happiness and true power lie in understanding yourself, accepting yourself, having confidence in yourself.
Beautiful Being Yourself Lying
