WHAT A GREAT SCHOLAR CAN TEACH YOU ABOUT LIFE

Joseph Campbell (1904-1987) was a college professor and author. He was one of the world's leading experts on mythology. Campbell received world-wide fame from a series of television interviews he did with Bill Moyers called The Power of Myth. Ironically, this series was broadcast just after he died.

Here are some of Campbell 's most famous quotes . . .

"The privilege of a lifetime is being who you are."

"It is by going down into the abyss that we recover the treasures of life."

"Where you stumble, there lies your treasure."

"The very cave you are afraid to enter turns out to be the source of what you are looking for."

"Follow you bliss and the universe will open doors for you where
there were only walls."

"The world is perfect. It's a mess.
We are not going to change it.
Our job is to straighten out our own lives."

"If you follow your bliss,
you will always have your bliss, money or not.
If you follow money, you may lose it,
and you will have nothing."

"We must let go of the life we have planned,
so as to accept the one that is waiting for us."

-- Joseph Campbell (1904-1987)

THE SECRET OF HAPPY FOOD SERVICE….
AND AN INCREDIBLE INSIGHT FROM CARL JUNG!

One sales clerk in a candy store always had customers lined up
waiting for her while the other sales clerks would have very few people, in their lines.

The owner of the store noticed this and asked her what her secret was.
“It's simple,” she said.

“The others scoop up more than a pound and then start taking candy away.
I always scoop up less than a pound and then start adding candy to it.”

“The foundation of all mental illness is the unwillingness
to experience legitimate suffering.”

- Carl Jung

THE 5 DO OR DIE FACTORS OF GETTING
FIT AND LIVING LONGER!

Nathan Pritikin (1915-1985) was one of the world's leading pioneers in the area of longevity.

He believed the keys to a long, healthy life were to be found in nutrition and exercise. Here are some of Pritikin's beliefs about exercise . . .

1. Exercise must have top priority, one that supersedes everything except your spouse, your children, and the food you eat.

2. The excuse of not being able to find the time to exercise is a cop-out. We find the time to sleep because it is mandatory. So is exercise.

3. If you don't owe exercise to yourself, you owe it to the people who love you – your family and friends.

4. It is unfair to think of exercise as taking extra time. It simply doesn't. With the new energy you've got, you're probably sleeping an hour less per night. Your exercise does not eat into your working, playing, or leisure at all.

5. Schedule your exercise the day before and then fit your work schedule around it.
