It is not enough to be busy; so are the ants. The question is: what are we busy about?

Allow peace inside

Being active and ambitious does not have to mean being frenzied and stressed. In fact, being at peace on the inside can make you much more effective on the outside.

Do what you do without fighting against it. Give your presence and full attention to what you’re doing while keeping your spirit in a place of peace and acceptance.

Choose your actions by being fully involved in and informed by the world around you. Choose your attitude by being ever thankful for your opportunity to experience it all.

Life is constantly placing demands on you. You can choose to feel peacefully empowered by those demands and by the positive possibilities for progress that come with them.

Don’t make an unnecessary burden for yourself. Instead of creating stress inside, allow peace to fill your spirit.

Equip yourself in the most effective way to deal with whatever may come. Allow peace, deep inside, and act always from a place of peaceful power.

— Ralph Marston
