Connecting The Inside & The Outside

It's common to believe that life is a series of external experiences. And that we must live in outwardly extraordinary life in order to have something to share. The experience of our inner world is often completely overlooked. p60

If we focus on what's going on inside ourselves - sensations, emotions, the patterns of our thoughts - a wealth of material can be found. p60

When we go inside, we are processing what's going on outside. We're no longer separate. We're connected. We are one. p60

Ultimately, it doesn't make a difference, whether your content or originates on the inside or the outside. p60
