You are a Badass: how to stop doubting your greatness and start living an awesome life, Jen Sincero
If you want to live a life you’ve never lived, you have to do things you’ve never done.
It’s not your fault that you’re fucked up. It’s your fault if you stay fucked up
Most people are living in an illusion based on someone else’s beliefs.
The Force is with you.
As French author and fearless truth-seeker, André Gide, so aptly put it, “One does not discover new lands without consenting to lose sight of the shore for a very long time.” This is about believing that we live in a loving, kind and abundant Universe instead of one that’s petty, mean, and likes other people more than it likes you.
If you are depressed, you are living in the past. If you are anxious, you are living in the future. If you are at peace, you are living in the present.
—Lao Tzu; ancient Chinese philosopher, founder of Taoism, could have been one guy or a mythical compilation of many, nobody really knows for sure
You are responsible for what you say and do. You are not responsible for whether or not people freak out about it
What other people think about you has nothing to do with you and everything to do with them.
The trick is to not only deny the criticism any power over you, but, even more challenging, to not get caught up in the praise. There’s nothing wrong with blushingly accepting a compliment, but if you find yourself always seeking outside approval that you’re good enough or cool enough or talented enough or worthy enough, you’re screwed. Because if you base your self-worth on what everyone else thinks of you, you hand all your power over to other people and become dependent on a source outside of yourself for validation. Then you wind up chasing after something you have no control over, and should that something suddenly place its focus somewhere else, or change its mind and decide you’re no longer very interesting, you end up with a full-blown identity crisis.
It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not.
André Gide 安德烈 纪德; French author, Nobel Prize winner, fearless self-explorer
You have to change your thinking first, and then the evidence appears. Our big mistake is that we do it the other way around. We demand to see the evidence before we believe it to be true.
Your job isn’t to know the how, it’s to know the what and to be open to discovering, and receiving, the how.
We only get to be in our bodies for a limited time, why not celebrate the journey instead of merely riding it out until it’s over?
Forgiveness means giving up all hope for a better past.
—Lily Tomlin; actress, writer, comedienne, absurdist
We prolong our misery by holding on to our ill feelings
Holding on to resentment is like taking poison and waiting for your enemies to die.
Forgiving isn’t about being nice to them, it’s about being nice to yourself.
What you choose to focus on becomes your reality.
As the poet William Blake so eloquently stated: “If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is, infinite.”
You’re the author of your own life— not your parents, not society, not your partner, not your friends, not the bullies who called you Fatzilla in junior high—and the sooner you decide to write yourself a better script, the sooner you get to live a more awesome life.
We tiptoe through life hoping to safely make it to death. —Unknown
Our greatest fears are the greatest waste of time.
No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.
—Eleanor Roosevelt; activist, feminist, superhero, longest-serving First Lady of the United States evah
“Having money is like anything else; a tool. And if you see it that way, making it not just about you, but about a way that you can play a part in the dynamic by which money is used for the betterment of all things, then having money is not only a blessing, it’s a responsibility.”--Marianne Williamson
Being wealthy means having the resources to provide yourself with everything you need, and desire, to share your gifts with the world as your biggest, badassiset self. This means being wealthy psychologically, spiritually, and energetically as well as materially.
One of the best things you can do to improve the world is to improve yourself.
Nothing has any value other than the value we put on it.
Similarly, the monetary value we put on things and services has energy. Someone could sell a T-shirt in a store for ten dollars. Another person could sell the exact same T-shirt in some fancy store for one thousand dollars. How much is a gold watch worth? How much is a broken watch worth that was owned by Michael Jackson?
Keep moving, keep growing, keep pushing through obstacles, keep evolving. You break through at one level, arrive at the next, and take another step up. Each time you grow, you get to learn something new, which basically means you have to get uncomfortable again. Because when you arrive at a level you’ve never been at before, you’re faced with challenges you’ve never experienced before. It’s the willingness to keep pushing through new challenges, not shrink from them back into your comfort zone, that separates the successful from the unsuccessful.
I strongly suggest you actually take the time to read books about the people who light you up, because it’s one of the best ways to get inspired to change your life.
It's not that the things and opportunities that we want in life don't exist yet.
It's that we're not yet aware of their existence (or the fact that we can really have them).
Wanting to be someone else is a waste of the person you are.
--Kurt Cobain; you know this one is, right?
Growth ain't for weenies, but it's no where near as painful as living the life you're living right now if you're not really going for it.
You are the only you there is and ever will be.
I worked for a menial's hire
Only to learn, dismayed
That any wage I asked of Life
Life would have willingly paid.
--Anonymous
It was about no longer being the kind of person who takes what she can get, and finally becoming the kind of person who creates exactly what she wants.
