The greatest achievement is selflessness.
The greatest worth is self-mastery.
The greatest quality is seeking to serve others.
The greatest precept is continual awareness.
The greatest medicine is the emptiness of everything.
The greatest action is not conforming with the worlds ways.
The greatest magic is transmuting the passions.
The greatest generosity is non-attachment.
The greatest goodness is a peaceful mind.
The greatest patience is humility.
The greatest effort is not concerned with results.
The greatest meditation is a mind that lets go.
The greatest wisdom is seeing through appearances.

Sounds very Buddhismy :o) Buddhism is remarkable in pointing out the details and on how to help us achieve the goals of humankind. A few people, including my father, say that Buddhism is great for helping develope the self-discipline and help them to be unfluttered when any situation arise...
One new thing to me is "the greates effort is not concerned with results" so it is better not to have goals or we'd be disappointed, huh?
Ugh, it is me again! :o)
For anyone who is interested in knowing more about ACIM (on the surface), I suggest that one should read Jon Mundy's articles "A Course in Miracles Made Simple" (http://www.miraclesmagazine.org/mayjune_2005.htm) and "A Course In Miracles: It isn't easy" (http://www.miraclesmagazine.org/julyaugust_2005.htm)
