More quotes by Martha Beck
Ten bajillion product ads notwithstanding, your looks are another thing that's basically genetic.
Martha Beck
Constantly measuring ourselves against others sours and shortens our lives, robbing us of the very things we think it will bring: prosperity, love, inner peace, the knowledge that we’re good enough.
Martha Beck
Criticism is an alluring substitute for creation, because tearing things down, unlike building them up, really is as easy as falling off a stump. It's blissfully simple to strike a savvy, sophisticated pose by attacking someone else's creations, but the old adage is right: Any fool can burn down a barn. Building one is something else again.
Martha Beck
People are so afraid of authority figures and doctors are authority figures.
Martha Beck
I'd like to help repair the earth's ecosystems, and to fully live until I'm fully dead.
Martha Beck
Just one mental shift-focusing on the abundance of your environment-switches your psychological settings so that your life automatically improves in many areas you may think are unrelated. This is essentially a leap from fear to faith.
Martha Beck
Whether you've seen angels floating around your bedroom or just found a ray of hope at a lonely moment, choosing to believe that something unseen is caring for you can be a life-shifting exercise.
Martha Beck
Angels come in many shapes and sizes, and most of them are not invisible.
Martha Beck
Sometimes a psychic tells you something and it feels wrong and others may be right on the money. It's your choice about whom to trust, and giving that trust is something we do ourselves.
Martha Beck
The part of you that is unhampered by illusion-the illusion of time, the illusion of powerlessness, the illusion of impossibility-i s waiting for you to slow down and open up so that it can speak to your consciousness. In some unguarded moment, you will hear its wildly improbable words and know that they are guiding you home.
Martha Beck
I really do think that any deep crisis is an opportunity to make your life extraordinary in some way.
Martha Beck
Anyone who comes into your life, under any circumstances, has something to teach you.
Martha Beck
All religious leaders and spiritual teachers emphasize finding a place within us that is true. People who obsessively follow these leaders instead of their own purpose attach to the spiritual leader and become fanatical and controlling. That's why Jesus tried to tell his followers not to get attached to outward form.
Martha Beck
As much horror as we have always created, we are a species that keeps moving forward, seeing new sights in new ways, and enjoying the journey.
Martha Beck
Most unhappy people need to learn just one lesson: how to see themselves through the lens of genuine compassion, and treat themselves accordingly.
Martha Beck
Imagine the choices you'd make if you had no fear-of falling, of losing, of being alone, of disapproval.
Martha Beck
You have the freedom to live and let live, to love and let love. Granting yourself that freedom is one of the healthiest, most constructive things you can do for yourself and the people who matter to you.
Martha Beck
Most people go through their whole lives, John went on, and never have one miracle happen to them. You've had dozens and dozens, and you still want more! It's like God gives you a brownie, I mean a really good brownie, but you can't be content with it. You want the whole pan of brownies. Nobody gets that.
Martha Beck
You're exactly where you're meant to be, meandering along a crooked path.
Martha Beck
Conflict in close relationships is not only inevitable, it's essential. Intimacy connects people who are inevitably different.
