In the beginners mind there are many possibilities, but in the experts there are few.  – Shunryu Suzuki

the beginner’s mind

Such a mind is childlike. One that sees things anew, doesn’t discount anything, has few regrets and worries not about the future. It lives squarely in each moment.

possibilities

Unencumbered such a mind is free to be creative and truly resourceful. This mind seeks possibilities, expresses emotions, resents not and exudes joy. What kind of mind do we have? Or does our mind have us?

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM here, I AM now.
