More From Mignon McLaughlin

I talk to groups studying the most advanced spiritual teachings and sometimes these people wonder why nothing is happening in their lives. their motive is the attainment of inner peace for themselves - which of course is a selfish motive. you will not find it with this motive. the motive, if you are to find inner peace, must be an outgoing motive. service, of course, service. giving, not getting. your motive must be good if your work is to have good effect. the secret of life is being of service.
Spiritual Selfish Teaching
Remorse.-- never yield to remorse, but at once tell yourself: remorse would simply mean adding to the first act of stupidity a second.
Mean Yield Stupidity
We were never lovers, and we never will be, now. i do not regret that, however. i regret the conversations we never had, the time we did not spend together. i regret that i never told him that he made me happy, when i was in his company. the world was the better for his being in it. these things alone do i now regret: things left unsaid. and he is gone, and i am old.

There's no regret. you can't regret. i mean, i've felt regret but i've also refused to allow regret to sow a seed and live in me because i don't believe it. you feel it, it's like guilt, it's like jealousy, it's like all those horrible things. you've just got to snip them and get them out, because they're no good.

... i'm not conscious of the speed ... it's not my motive ... my motive is displaying a voice through the fingerboard ... it can get to the point where i don't have control over what i am playing ... i never end the gig until i can't sing anymore
