The Quest for Personal Mastery

“Srikumar has a wealth of knowledge & wisdom”

There are two nuggets from Srikumar that have positively influenced my life.
The first is "Good thing, bad thing, who knows?" I find myself using this more & more frequently. What it really does, is question our belief system & keeps our emotions in check. Rather than judging something or someone, it opens our minds to acceptance and forgiveness. That's really powerful!
The second is "Invest in the process, not the outcome." It's important to set our intentions for what we want and to enjoy the feeling of having it, but we must take action and embrace the journey towards manifesting those things & experiences. I coined my own saying as a result, "Eternity is a perpetual journey." Our "outcomes" are really just markers & signposts in the greater timeless journey of life. An investment in the journey (or process) is an investment in perpetual happiness and abundance.
