“A coach should be a Sherpa and not a Shepherd. The role of the coach is not to lead or guide the client but to support the client.”
You can live in a time of war and be at peace with yourself. You can live in a time of peace and be at war with yourself.
Peace comes from the inside and not from the outside. Peace comes from knowing yourself and not from knowing others. Peace comes from controlling your own thoughts and actions and not from controlling other people’s thoughts and actions.
We cannot run from ourselves to find peace; we have to run to ourselves to find peace. The peace we seek is within us but it is caged. We must unleash it.
