“In the yogic tradition, this principle of using intense effort to burn through life’s distractions is called Tapas. In Sanskrit, it is defined as “heat” or “essential energy.” The concept is that through a disciplined approach to work and self-sacrifice, Tapas will burn away the negativity that separates us from God. By working our hardest and happily enduring the hardships of life we are able to create a sense of peace and clarity in ourselves.” ~ Russell Simmons from Do You!
We live our life with discipline, passion and integrity. That’s a straight line to bliss.
“The person who understands Dharma will have the opposite reaction to a “hard” job. That person will be eager to get started, no matter what kind of work is in front of her, because she understands that she’s doing God’s work. And when you’re working for God, nothing is too hard.” ~ Russell Simmons from Do You!
“The key ingredient to any kind of happiness or success is to never give less than your best.” ~ Russell Simmons from Do You!
“The dictionary is the only place where success comes before work.” ~ Vince Lombardi
