Warrior

A warrior takes everything in life to be a challenge, responding fully to what happens without complaint and regret.

What usually matters most to people is affirmation or certainty in the eyes of others; what matters most to a warrior is impeccabiblity in one's own eyes. Impeccability means living with precision and a totality of attention.

It's inspiring to become a warrior. There's no one else who can do it for us. We each have to do it for ourselves.

Be aware, moment to moment, paying attention to what's happening in a total way. There's nothing mystical about it, it's so simple and direct and straightforward, but it takes doing.
