“Detachment is not giving up the things in this world, but accepting the fact and to be continuously aware that nothing is permanent.”
― Aditya Ajmera

“Things sometimes go our way and sometimes they don’t. All we can do is apply ourselves to our profession, giving our very best effort but emotionally letting go of the outcome. Why? Because if we obsess about an outcome, we cannot possibly honour the present moment.”
― Christopher Dines, Mindfulness Burnout Prevention: An 8-Week Course for Professionals

“The more attached you are to something, the more your vision is obscured and narrowed, sometimes to the point where you are convinced that there is only one way to proceed.”
― Miguel Ruiz Jr., The Five Levels of Attachment: Toltec Wisdom for the Modern World

“Inside mind there are two parts: the controlling mind (ego), and the relaxed but aware mind (self). The controlling mind is the overthinking mind. It is the ego. It tries too much and has many doubts and conflicts. It overthinks and overdoes. It is full with excessive possessiveness and attachments. On the other-hand, the relaxed but aware mind has the natural ability to face and overcome the problems of life with awareness and efficiency.”
― Amit Ray, Mindfulness Meditation for Corporate Leadership and Management
