Peel the Potatoes

 


Be Selective.
Choose to do a few things really well,
and let others do the rest.
 - Jonathan Lockwood Huie

Zen does not confuse spirituality with thinking about
God while one is peeling potatoes.
Zen spirituality is just to peel the potatoes.
- Alan Watts

By letting it go, it all gets done.
The world is won by those who let it go.
But when you try and try,
The world is beyond the winning.
- Lao Tzu

Besides the noble art of getting things done,
there is the noble art of leaving things undone.
The wisdom of life consists in the elimination of non-essentials.
- Lin Yutang

Be - don't try to become.
Being is enlightenment, becoming is ignorance.
- Osho

The things of this world exist;
they are; you can't refuse them.
- Lao Tzu

Aspiration and Vision certainly have their time and place,
but mostly life consists of choosing to be joyful
while peeling the potatoes and taking out the trash.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
