Vernon Howard

Interpretation blocks reception while masquerading as reception. Rightness does not need interpretation; it requires simple acceptance and nothing else.
VERNON HOWARD

Acceptance Block Simple
One false idea is that anyone can hurt you. Events can ruin your reputation, take your money, mistreat you, revenge itself upon you, deceive, betray, abandon you, but cannot hurt you.
VERNON HOWARD

Hurt Ideas Revenge
See human nonsense as nonsense and save years of trying to make sense out of it.

What you really want for yourself is always trying to break through, just as a cooling breeze flows through an open window on a hot day. Your part is to open the windows of your mind.
VERNON HOWARD

Always Break Mind Through Trying
If you call one thing good, you must call its opposite bad. If you think it wonderful to make a big profit in your business, you will also think it terrible if you incur a large loss. The idea is to live above the opposites.
VERNON HOWARD

Loss Opposites Thinking
You know what is right. Deep down, you know. The battle between your true wisdom and the counterfeit wisdom of society is what causes frustration. Refuse to compromise with what you know is right-with what is right for you.
VERNON HOWARD

Battle Causes Frustration
Anger or bitterness toward those who have hurt you will block your path to higher ground. You can have anger toward people or you can have freedom from people, but you can’t have both.
VERNON HOWARD

Block Ground Higher Hurt
