Self Growth Quotes

“Fearlessness is not what you do to win, but what you don't do. When you love yourself as much as your God, you won't see other people as the source of your pain. Rather, you will see who you have become because you honestly believed that your chains would be broken through hatred, instead of kindness.”

“Never surrender your hopes and dreams to the fateful limitations others have placed on their own lives. The vision of your true destiny does not reside within the blinkered outlook of the naysayers and the doom prophets. Judge not by their words, but accept advice based on the evidence of actual results. Do not be surprised should you find a complete absence of anything mystical or miraculous in the manifested reality of those who are so eager to advise you. Friends and family who suffer the lack of abundance, joy, love, fulfillment and prosperity in their own lives really have no business imposing their self-limiting beliefs on your reality experience.”

“Consider the so-called mistakes as new paths towards your destination. And if you take them as new opportunities, in fact, there are no mistakes! Just choices that lead you to a new reality and have different consequences. The secret is to always see the beauty in everything!”

“When I was very young, my father told me that you must find a way to do admirable things from time to time, so that people will come to you to be friends. I didn't understand it until I was 30 years old and realized the benefits of doing what he said I could do. "Winning respect" is the last thing that can be rushed, and it is absolutely impossible to achieve it on a temporary basis. Because everybody has enough observational skills, and these people can communicate with each other and communicate with each other - the eyes of the masses are clear. Respect can only be earned by accumulation, this is an iron law.”

“While one might laugh at the meaningless boredom of people a decade or two ago, the emptiness has for many now moved from the state of boredom to a state of futility and despair which holds promise of dangers. The human being cannot live in a condition of emptiness for very long: if he is not growing toward something, he does not merely stagnate; the pent-up potentialities turn into morbidity and despair, and eventually into destructive activities. The feeling of emptiness or vacuity generally comes from people's feeling that they are powerless to do anything effective about their lives or the world they live in. Inner vacuousness is the long-term, accumulated result of a person's particular conviction about himself, namely his conviction that he cannot act as an entity in directing his own life... And soon, since what he wants and what he feels can make no real difference, he gives up wanting and feeling. Apathy and lack of feeling are also defenses against anxiety. When a person continually faces danger he is powerless to overcome, his final line of defense is at last to avoid even feeling the dangers.”

“Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.”

“There is only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that's your own self.”

“Do not think of your faults, still less of other's faults; look for what is good and strong, and try to imitate it. Your faults will drop off, like dead leaves, when their time comes.”

“Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.”
