Wayne Dyer Wisdom for Tough Times

Wayne Dyer, the prolific author and life philosopher, has had an enormous impact on the development of my own life philosophy. And, he is an important part of the story of the Wisdom of Scotty, a keynote presentation I will be bringing to fund raising events of charitable organizations in 2009.

There are many things that I have learned from Wayne that are useful in dealing with these turbulent times. But, that which comes top of mind is his reminders that "teachers will appear" when we open to the wisdom of the universe.

The tough times are sure to bring out the best in some people, and the worst in others. In the former group will be people who summon up courage and compassion beyond what even they knew they had. These will be people who can inspire you to follow their lead and to operate with courage and compassion.

In the latter group will be those who succumb to their fears and stresses and bring pain to others. These people will be "teachers" of what you don't want to be like.

These are rapidly becoming times like none most of us have experienced in our lives. We can benefit from the wisdom of new teachers....who will appear...if we have an open mind.
