The Teacher's Writings
By Edward C. Hager
To be a quiet leader instead of a noisy follower, is the "golden rule." Lead by demonstration and attraction - not by contrite action, would be the correct path. The Path, so-called, all must follow sooner or later, is the one that all who have gone before have trod and each and every human being must eventually climb onto that path and follow it to The Celestial Oneness or All-that-Is. We are not particularly singeling out any one individual or group but just wish to point out the uselessness of so many who wish to be 'noticed' and hence, make total and complete donkeys of themselves in the process. Do not be one. Take heed and read, listen and learn and each personage will grow accordingly.
Another point is the consistent worry that each human being lays upon his or herself. Note the extra and excess work individuals create in attempting to "worry" a situation, work condition or problem into what they feel would be a better and easier atmosphere. But as so often seen, such strains only bring on more concerns and get in the way of the wished-for desires. We can observe this and so many times, admonish by attempting to 'nudge' the parties to move perhaps in a more laid-back attitude to lessen the pressures and if-you-will, take the 'softer' road to achieve the results originally desired.
Clear the mental air - numerous times during the day if the individual feels the need - and this will aid in seeing the "big picture" and recognize the frustrations and roadblocks everyone has to face each and every day. Take a break - breathe deeply and observe. Observe and then it can be seen more clearly others running around "chasing their tails." Let this be a warning to go just a little slower and recognize Life can be beautiful. Just recognize the pitfalls and potholes and step around them as one proceeds on the Path.
