SM Brunch 10: Mindfulness, Change, and Dream Peace

More Saturday Mornings Brunch:

Improve your character through mindful striving or let your character worsen through negligence and obliviousness.

-- Buddha

****
The human mind is a lot like the human egg, in that the human egg has a shut-off device. One sperm gets in, and it shuts down so that the next one can’t get in. The human mind has a big tendency of the same sort. According to Max Plank, the really innovative and important new physics was never really accepted by the old guard. Instead, a new guard came along that was less brain-blocked by its previous conclusions.

-- Charlie Munger

****
We cannot change what we are not aware of, and once we are aware, we cannot help but change.

-- Sheryl Sandberg
