In his best-selling book, The Power of Now , Eckhart Tolle shares the following quotes from the ancient Greek philosopher, Epictetus: “The things that happen to us are not the causes of our unhappiness, but only its effects. We are unhappy because we attach ourselves to them. Only by freeing ourselves from this attachment can we find peace and happiness” – Epictetus “When you have no wish for anything, you have no fear of anything either. You have no problems” – Epictetus “It is as impossible for a person who has lost his freedom to regain it as it would be impossible for a person who has been thrown into chains to regain his freedom” – Epictetus “Our minds are actually unlimited, they can expand endlessly
But we stop expanding when we allow ourselves to become identified with our thoughts and feelings” – Epictetus “When you wake up in the morning, ask yourself: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing? And most importantly… Why am I doing it?” – Epictetus
