Who Will Cry When You Die Life Lessons From The Monk Who Sold His

Respect Your Instincts
It is easy not to listen to what the Quakers call the “still, small voice within,” that
inner guide that is your personal source of wisdom. It is often difficult to march
to your own drum beat and listen to your instincts when the world around you
pressures you to conform to its dictates. Yet, to find the fulfillment and
abundance you seek, you must listen to those hunches and feelings that come to
you when you most need them.
As I grow older, I give far greater respect to my instincts and to the natural
reservoir of intuition that slumbers within each one of us. The impressions I
receive when I first meet a new person or that inner sense of wisdom that softly
nudges me in the right direction during a trying time have come to play a larger
part in the way I work and live. It seems that with age comes the corresponding
ability to trust your own instincts.
I have also found that my personal instincts grow stronger when I am living
“on purpose,” that is to say, spending my days on activities that advance me
along the path to my legacy. When you are doing the right things and living the
way nature intended you to live, abilities you were not aware you had become
engaged and you liberate the fullness of the person you really are. As the Indian
philosopher Patanjali eloquently wrote:
When you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary project,
all of your thoughts break their bonds: Your mind transcends limitations,
your consciousness expands in every direction, and you find yourself in a
new, great and wonderful world. Dormant forces, faculties and talents
become alive, and you discover yourself to be a greater person by far than
you ever dreamed yourself to be.

Collect Quotes That Inspire You
If you have read 
The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari
or any of my other books, you
know that I love using quotations from the world’s great thinkers. I never knew
why I loved these as much as I do until one of my mentors, after reading a
manuscript I’d written, said, “You love quotations for the same reason I do,
Robin. A great quote contains a wealth of wisdom in a single line.”
So often in my readings, I come across just the right quote, which contains
the ideal answer to a challenge I am facing. And my mentor was right. The value
of a great quote does lie in the fact that it contains a world of wisdom, wisdom
that may have taken the author many years to arrive at, in a line or two.
Over the next few weeks, start your own collection of quotations, words
that you can keep referring to when you need some instant inspiration or advice
about how to deal with those curves life sometimes sends our way. Another
effective way that I use quotes is to paste them in places where I know I will see
them throughout the day, such as on my bathroom mirror, on the refrigerator
door, on the dashboard of my car and throughout my office. This simple
discipline keeps me focused on what’s essential during busy times, positive
during trying times and centered on the principles of real success. On my
personal computer, I have now collected hundreds of quotes from great leaders,
thinkers, poets and philosophers on subjects such as how to deal with adversity,
the meaning of life, the value of self-improvement, the importance of helping
others, the power of our thoughts and the need for a strong character.
