Quotes about Empowerment

As James Allen says in As a Man Thinketh: Thought allied fearlessly with purpose becomes creative force.

Bei Vergebung geht es darum, sich um sich selbst zu kümmern — und nicht etwa um denjenigen, dem man vergeben muss. Es geht darum, das Bedürfnis nach Wohlbefinden vor den Wunsch, recht zu haben, zu stellen. Es geht darum, Verantwortung für das eigene Leben zu übernehmen, statt vorzugeben, es liege in der Hand anderer. Es geht darum, die eigene Macht zu nutzen, indem man Wut, Ablehnung und Schmerz den Laufpass gibt.

You are practically powerless without gratitude—

Know what's going on with their money

Design your own job. If you see things in your company that need doing that aren't being done, create a new job for yourself. Come up with an excellent pitch about all the ways this will benefit the company and help them make craploads of money, and name your salary. You never know, stranger things have happened.

Become one of your own die-hard fans, look at yourself from the outside, where all your self doubts can't crawl all over you, and behold what shines through.

This is incredibly powerful, because when you love yourself enough to stand in your truth no matter what the cost, everyone benefits. You start attracting the kinds of things, people, and opportunities, that are in alignment with who you truly are, which is way more fun than hanging out with a bunch of irritating energy suckers.

1. Is this something I want to be, do, or have? 2. Is this going to take me in the direction I want to go (not should go)? 3. Is this going to screw over* anybody else in the process?

Changing your habits and your boundaries takes courage, audacity, and a whole lot of self-love.

We're so deeply wrapped up in our stories—I don't have the money, I'm not good enough, I can't quit my job, I'm lazy, I have bad hair—trudging through life with our heads down, clinging to our false beliefs like lifeboats full of doo-doo, that we prevent ourselves from seeing the literally infinite sea of possibilities and opportunities surrounding us at every single moment.
