10 Brilliant Pieces of Life Advice by Carl Jung
A recipe to refresh your mind
Throughout our lives, some words of others affect us deeply.
Whether these are the words of famous authors or people we know, our minds can be healed if we get nurtured by the right sources.
So today I’d like to share with you, 10 brilliant pieces of life advice by Carl Jung, and hope they’ll refresh your mind, as much they have refreshed mine.
1- “Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.”
2- “We cannot change anything until we accept it. Condemnation does not liberate, it oppresses.”
3- “Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart.”
4- “Mistakes are, after all, the foundations of truth, and if a man does not know what a thing is, it is at least an increase in knowledge if he knows what it is not.”
5- “We should not pretend to understand the world only by the intellect. The judgment of the intellect is only part of the truth.”
6-“The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances: if there is any reaction, both are transformed.”
7-“Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves.”
8-“I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become.”
9-“Loneliness does not come from having no people about one, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to oneself, or from holding certain views which others find inadmissible.”
10-“People will do anything, no matter how absurd, in order to avoid facing their own souls. One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious.”
