It may sound paradoxical, but however tight our schedule, however many things clamor to be done, we don't need to hurry. if we can keep our mind calm and go about our business with undivided attention, we will not only accomplish more but we'll do a better job - and find ourselves more patient, more at peace.

When we speak of a calm state of mind or peace of mind, we shouldn't confuse that with an insensitive state of apathy. having a calm or peaceful state of mind doesn't mean being spaced out or completely empty. peace of mind or a calm state of mind is rooted in affection and compassion and is sensitive and responsive to others.
Mean Compassion Peaceful
It just was a gradual development over the years. i mean last year was 'all you need is love.' this year, it's 'all you need is love and peace, baby.' give peace a chance, and remember love. the only hope for us is peace. violence begets violence. you can have peace as soon as you like if we all pull together. you're all geniuses, and you're all beautiful. you don't need anyone to tell you who you are. you are what you are. get out there and get peace, think peace, and live peace and breathe peace, and you'll get it as soon as you like.
Love Beautiful Baby
We can work on inner peace and world peace at the same time. on one hand, people have found inner peace by losing themselves in a cause larger than themselves, like the cause of world peace, because finding inner peace means coming from the self-centered life into the life centered in the good of the whole. on the other hand, one of the ways of working for world peace is to work for more inner peace, because world peace will never be stable until enough of us find inner peace to stabilize it.
Peace Mean Self
I can find only three kinds of business in the universe: mine, yours and god's. much of our stress comes from mentally living out of our business. when i think, "you need to get a job, i want you to be happy, you should be on time, you need to take better care of yourself," i am in your business. when i'm worried about earthquakes, floods, war, or when i will die, i am in god's business. if i am mentally in your business or in god's business, the effect is separation.
Jobs Business War
The most important job of the entrepreneur begins before there is a business or employees. the job of an entrepreneur is to design a business that can grow, employ many people, add value to its customers, be a responsible corporate citizen, bring prosperity to all those that work on the business, be charitable, and eventually no longer need the entrepreneur. before there is a business, a successful entrepreneur is designing this type of business in his or her mind's eye. according my rich dad, this is the job of a true entrepreneur.

It is a mistake to hire huge numbers of people to get a complicated job done. numbers will never compensate for talent in getting the right answer (two people who don't know something are no better than one), will tend to slow down progress, and will make the task incredibly expensive.
