Nothing terrible has ever happened except in our thinking. Reality is always good, even in situations that seem like nightmares. The story we tell is the only nightmare that we have lived.

More quotes by Byron Katie
Eating, drinking, and depression disorders are really thinking disorders.
Byron Katie
There is no peace in the world until you find peace within yourself in this moment.
Byron Katie
The mind's job is to validate what it thinks.
Byron Katie
The world will be at war as long as the mind is at war with itself. If we can't find peace within ourselves, where is the hope for peace in the world?
Byron Katie
Your understanding of another person is limited by what you think you already know. So when you just listen, the person you meet won't match your preconception. The exciting thing is that you usually meet someone much wiser and kinder than you expected. You might also lose track of your ideas about who you are.
Byron Katie
I'm most inspired whenever I hear of even the smallest act of human kindness.
Byron Katie
Stories are the untested, uninvestigated theories that tell us what all these things mean. We don’t even realize that they’re just theories.
Byron Katie
I am the perpetrator of my suffering - but only all of it.
Byron Katie
Until we question our stressful thoughts, we remain victims of the images in our head.
Byron Katie
The Work is four questions and a turnaround. The Work is a way to identify and question the thoughts that cause all the suffering and violence in the world. The Work is a very, very simple process. It's for anyone who can answer a question that is willing to. It takes a bit of willingness and an open mind.
Byron Katie
When you realize that every stressful moment you experience is a gift that points you to your own freedom, life becomes very kind.
Byron Katie
I know that even at moments of apparent danger, nothing is out of order or lacking, other than our own unquestioned thoughts about those moments.
Byron Katie
The miracle of love comes to you in the presence of the uninterpreted moment. If you are mentally somewhere else, you miss real life.
Byron Katie
Peace doesn't require two people it requires only one. It has to be you. The problem begins and ends there.
Byron Katie
Our parents, our children, our spouses, and our friends will continue to press every button we have, until we realize what it is that we don't want to know about ourselves, yet. They will point us to our freedom every time.
Byron Katie
The world is a projection of our thoughts - the thoughts we believe.
Byron Katie
I am a lover of what is, not because I'm a spiritual person, but because it hurts when I argue with reality.
Byron Katie
Lack of understanding is always painful.
Byron Katie
All I have is all I need and all I need is all I have in this moment.
Byron Katie
Life is simple. Everything happens for you, not to you. Everything happens at exactly the right moment, neither too soon nor too late. You don't have to like it... it's just easier if you do.
Byron Katie
