10 Quotes To Give Your Life Meaning, Clarity & A Dose Of Magic

Quotes in particular have served as a means for my personal
evolution . Here's a few I hope fill your life with inspiration.
1. "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our
deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our
Light, not our Darkness, that most frightens us." - Marianne
Williamson
Many of us sabotage success by wrongly telling ourselves we
aren't good enough, worthy or capable. We're surrounded by
potential world changers, too afraid of the task because it
means being authentic, speaking truths hard to hear, or being
criticized. Most importantly, many of us are afraid that being
the light makes others' lives go dark. We feel guilty for
becoming the best version of ourselves.The truth is, it's only
by being the light that our existence serves others. When we
grow or achieve our goals, we empower others to do the
same.
2. "Everything is figureoutable." - Marie Forleo
Every problem has a solution. Books are coaches, nature
provide remedies, Google is our assistant and YouTube is an
on-demand visual demonstration. There are also 7 billion wise
people on the planet, who we can connect with by going out,
picking up the phone or reaching out to on social media. When
people or the internet can't help, prayer and meditation birth
clarity, direction and inspired actions.
3. "Doing what you love is the cornerstone of having
abundance in your life." - Wayne Dyer
When you do things you love — whether it's work, fun
activities, or spending time with people you love — you attract
more of that into your life. Remember, the reverse is also true.
4. "Don't let anyone tell you that daydreaming is a waste of
time: the only people who would dare tell you that are people
without any vision." - Susan Mille r
How else can you identify what you truly want to have, be or
contribute to the world? Everything starts with a thought, a
vision and a self-manufactured plan.
5. "The soul would have no rainbow if the eyes had no tears."
- Native American proverb
If we never experienced sadness or pain, how could we
possibly appreciate joy or pleasure? This quote reminds me
that every storm has sunshine at the end.
6. "My advice to you is get married: if you find a good wife
you'll be happy; if not, you'll become a philosopher." -
Socrates
This quote is about taking risks. Each thing we experience in
life makes us stronger, wiser, and gets us one step closer to
fulfilling our purpose.
7. "Before you diagnose yourself with depression or low self-
esteem, first make sure that you are not, in fact, just
surrounding yourself with assholes." - William Gibson
There have been countless times I've felt like shit simply
because of the people I was spending my time with. These so-
called friends just used me as dumping grounds for their
problems. Of course I was depressed. I felt bad about myself,
because I was often around people who loved to criticize. Find
people who love, accept and celebrate you. Instant.
Happiness. Boost.
8. “I’ve missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I’ve lost
almost 300 games. Twenty-six times, I’ve been trusted to take
the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over
and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.” -
Michael Jordan
Sometimes you'll have to disappoint yourself or others.
However, with each ounce of effort, each courageous step
forward and persistence we can achieve what we set out to
do. Never give up.
9. “If you take away a person’s struggle, you take away their
victory. It’s like pulling a caterpillar out of it’s cocoon before
it’s time. It will never develop into a butterfly.” - Cameron C.
Taylor
As a recovering co-dependent, I've always taken on
responsibilities that weren't my own. I thought I was helping,
when in reality I disempowered myself and made those folks
feel like I thought they were incapable.
10. “If your dreams do not scare you, they are not big
enough.” - Ellen Johnson Sirleaf
This reminds me to stop playing small. We weren't put on this
earth to be average or good. We were put here to be great. Set
your intentions and goals really high, to stretch yourself to
growth. Every monumental success was seemingly impossible
at one point.
