BEST of PONDER on THIS for Monday, March 24th, 2014 by Dan Millman in EVERYDAY ENLIGHTENMENT

“At its core your level of self-worth is your answer to a single internal question: “How deserving am I?” Or, to put it more directly as it pertains to your daily life: “How good can I stand it today?” If you observe your life very closely, you will discover that you don’t necessarily get what you deserve. Rather, you get no more and no less than what you BELIEVE you deserve. Only to the degree that you appreciate your innate human worthiness will your subconscious mind open up to life’s bounty.

Success involves talent, effort, and creativity, but first of all, it requires a willingness to receive. To paraphrase a speech I heard Ram Dass give many years ago, rain may pour down from the heavens, but if you only hold up a thimble, a thimbleful is all you receive.”

Dan Millman, in “Everyday Enlightenment”
