Confidence building

You gain strength, courage, and confidence
by every experience in which you really
stop to look fear in the face.
You must do the thing which you think
you cannot do.

- Eleanor Roosevelt

If you think you can, you can. And if
you think you can’t, you’re right.

- Mary Kay Ash

It’s lack of faith that makes people
afraid of meeting challenges. You
have to believe in yourself.

- Muhammad Ali

If you have no confidence in self,
you are twice defeated in the race
of life.
With confidence, you have won even
before you have started.

A Yukta

He who is satisfied with wisdom and direct vision of Truth, who has
conquered the senses and is ever undisturbed, to whom a lump of earth,
a stone and gold are the same, that Yogi is said to be a Yukta, a saint
of established wisdom.

- Bhagavad Gita VI.8

A yogi

The deluded mind attaches false value to the objects of the world. The yogi will use a clod of earth to clean his hands, a stone to keep his papers from flying and a piece of gold to feed the hungry: but he has risen above the false sense of values. Each object's true value is its value in context. The man who cannot distinguish gold from mud is a mad man; one who sees the difference but is not affected by it, is a sage. He knows the true value of every object in God's nature, and fulfills God's will in every way.


- Swami Venkatesananda
