Buddhist Boot Camp (10 page)

Easier Said Than Done

The most common recurring response to the messages in this book is, “that’s easier said than done.”

This is boot camp, people . . . NOT the path of least resistance.

Training our mind to be more positive, loving, accepting and kind may be “easier said than done,” but it’s certainly easier than living the rest of your life with greed, hatred and anger!

We have to do the work if we want to free ourselves from the binds of ignorance.

Let go of what’s killing you, even if it’s killing you to let go!

An easy trek in the wrong direction is significantly more difficult than an uphill climb toward euphoria. —Timber Hawkeye
