"I want to move beyond self-discipline into enlightened selfishness."

"Everything I do with the intention of motivating myself backfires. Within the intention to motivate myself there lies an implicit "should", which immediately sets me at odds with myself, and frequently triggers rebellion. Human souls come into this world full of passion and purpose. And then well-meaning parents and teachers start trying to motivate them." 

~ Kelly Bryson in "Don't Be Nice, Be Real"

"In awareness there is no self-discipline."

~ J. Krishnamurti
