More quotes by Henry Cloud
You have to be able to face losing some things you might want in order to be free to do the right thing.
Henry Cloud
That is why success and fruitfulness depend as much upon focusing on the who you are as much as the what of the work you do. Invest in your character, and it will give you the returns that you are looking for by only investing in the work itself. You can't do the latter without the former.
Henry Cloud
In the end, as a leader, you are always going to get a combination of two things: what you create and what you allow.
Henry Cloud
If you want to become healthy, you have to surround yourself with a group of people that are getting healthy and you have to be connected to a community that is doing what you want to do.
Henry Cloud
Dating should be a part of your life, not your life a part of dating. There is more to life than finding a date.
Henry Cloud
Good pain is pain in the service of a purpose. Bad pain is pain endured because we are resisting a needed growth step.
Henry Cloud
Endings are a part of life, and we are actually wired to execute them. But because of trauma, developmental failures, and other reasons, we shy away from the steps that could open up whole new worlds of development and growth.
Henry Cloud
Dating is a place to practice how to relate to other people.
Henry Cloud
Be Hard on the issue, Soft on the person.
Henry Cloud
The mature person meets the demands of life, while the immature person demands that life meet her demands.
Henry Cloud
Consequences give us the pain that motivates us to change.
Henry Cloud
Because dating is a human exercise, it can be a tightrope fraught with danger. You will be dating imperfect people, and some of them are more imperfect than others. In addition, you are not perfect either, so that complicates the picture.
Henry Cloud
When truth presents itself, the wise person see the light, takes it in, and makes adjustments. The fool tries to adjust the truth so he does not have to adjust to it.
Henry Cloud
Everything has seasons, and we have to be able to recognize when something's time has passed and be able to move into the next season. Everything that is alive requires pruning as well, which is a great metaphor for endings.
Henry Cloud
Love can only exist where freedom and responsibility are operating.
Henry Cloud
He is the Truth, and He wants us to deal in truth with ourselves and our loved ones. We want the truth about you and your family to flood into and overrun the secrets that keep you in bondage to dysfunctional behavior and relationships
Henry Cloud
Boundaries are basically about providing structure, and structure is essential in building anything that thrives.
Henry Cloud
Values are sometimes worth living and dying for, and are certainly worth dating and breaking up over.
Henry Cloud
A person who hasn't grieved a significant loss has unfinished business inside and can cause others great grief as a result.
Henry Cloud
For someone's character to grow, it has to be free from internal attack. Falling down never stopped children from developing. But getting yelled at, criticized, and put down can stop them for life.
