Think about it. We live in a Facebook world. Everyone is constantly on their phones, checking out other peoples profiles and are constantly distracted by the barrage of emails, messages and notifications. Taoism promotes joyful living and part of that is living with joy, peace and grace. This book is not about the principles, history and philosophies of Taoism This book is a shortcut . This book is a compilation of 365 of the wisest, most intriguing and most important Taoism quotes.
Remember: you dont become fitter from reading push-ups. You become fitter only when you do the push-ups. (doesnt matter how many you do, how bad/good each repetitions look like) Similar, the teaching of Taoism is a way of life. There is no point reading a chunky, fluffy and thick book to study about Taoism, only to find out that youll only need to live from some of the quotes/sayings from it. The pages that follow are a collection and compilation of my favorite quotes that I use, love and paste it all around me in small post-it. These quotes are thought-provoking, fascinating and intriguing.
These quotes, without a shadow of doubt, will give you courage, energy and inspiration that will support you in your day-to-day life. This book is yours to read as you love, but I highly recommend you go deep on each and every quote and not simply scan through each one of them and think Cool, Ive seen that somewhere, next With that said, I encourage you to read 1 quote a day that allows you to think and relate to your own life so that you can unleash the quotes full potential to fuel up your day with wisdom, joy and grace. Thank you, Xabier K. Fernao

Id strongly recommend you to share a quote that really means something to you on your Facebook, Instagram and Twitter and share it with your friends what the quote means to you. You live when you grow but you get fulfillment when you give. Note: The quotes in this book are collected from many sources and time periods. Every reasonable effort has been made to correctly attribute each quote to the original author but in some cases it was impossible to find out who really said the quote. On these cases, well use our own judgment to determine who really said the quote first. With that, enjoy the book and remember that life is always happening for you, and never to you.
It is only a matter of perspective.
