Why Things Are the Way they Are

Posted by Jahrun Chilam Balam


"If you want to know why things are the way they are, it is because things are the way they are. If you try to change the way things are, you will just keep them the way they are. Knowledge of this changes the way you are, which places you in a new and commanding relationship with the way things are."

If you plan for 10 years, grow trees.
If you plan for 100 years, educate your children.

Continued Observation and Practice

"At times you may suspect that a certain idea is true, yet be unable to make it work for you. It is like watching a swimmer without being able to swim yourself. But this is cause for en- couragement, not dismay. Your continued observation and practice will turn the theory into action."

- Vernon Howard, The Power of your Supermind, p. 59
