A few words from the late greats Zen Master George Carlin and Steve Jobs.

But when you're in front of an audience and you make them laugh at a new idea, you're guiding the whole being for the moment. No one is ever more him/herself than when they really laugh. Their defenses are down. It's very Zen-like, that moment. They are completely open, completely themselves when that message hits the brain and the laugh begins. That's when new ideas can be implanted. If a new idea slips in at that moment, it has a chance to grow.

Last Words, written by George Carlin


If you just sit and observe, you will see how restless your mind is. If you try to calm it, it only makes it worse, but over time it does calm, and when it does, there's room to hear more subtle things - that's when your intuition starts to blossom and you start to see things more clearly and be in the present more. Your mind just slows down, and you see a tremendous expanse in the moment. You see so much more than you could see before. It's a discipline; you have to practice it.

Steve Jobs, written by Walter Isaacson


Wandering Ronin commentary: This is this. If you want to see it, its everywhere that you seek it. If you are disagreeable and contradictory, it leaves and never returns. If I can't quote Zen Masters, then I'll quote from the source directly. You are you, and I am I. What exactly is the problem here, and how do you propose to resolve it?
