More quotes by Martha Beck
Ten bajillion product ads notwithstanding, your looks are another thing that's basically genetic.
Martha Beck
If you're living completely on your own, break out of solitary confinement. Seek to understand others, and help them understand you
Martha Beck
Feel about yourself what you would have others feel about themselves.
Martha Beck
Be brave enough to turn away from shiny objects, and toward the light that makes them shine.
Martha Beck
You're exactly where you're meant to be, meandering along a crooked path.
Martha Beck
Don’t hide love. If you feel it, express it-not to demand that others love you back, but simply to live outwardly the best of what you feel inwardly. The worst that can happen to your heart is not rejection by another person but failure to act on the love you feel.
Martha Beck
Learning to spot narcissists and deal with their destructive behavior can save you the world of hurt that awaits anyone who mistakes the near enemy for a friend.
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
Good fortune has side effects.
Martha Beck
In one century, we've added 28 years to our average life span - a change so rapid that our brains couldn't possibly have evolved to accommodate it.
Martha Beck
No part of your experience is wasted. Everything you've experienced so far is part of what you were meant to learn.
Martha Beck
Caring for your inner child has a powerful and surprisingly quick result: Do it and the child heals.
Martha Beck
Play until it's time to rest, then rest until it's time to play.
Martha Beck
In the moments I get it right, every step I take seems to be matched by a universal mystery, which obligingly, incredibly, creates what I can't.
Martha Beck
Tiny steps will get you to your goal months and months sooner. A little is better than a lot.
Martha Beck
Make stuff up. Anyone who ever did something new or interesting was making it up as they went along.
Martha Beck
The way to find your own North Star is not to think or feel your way forward but to dissolve the thoughts and feeling that make you miserable. You don't have to learn your destiny--you already know it you just have to unlearn the thoughts that blind you to what you know.
Martha Beck
If you think there is no action that you can perform in your current circumstances that will increase the supply of love in the world, you are believing a lie. At the very least, you always have the option to offer yourself kindness and understanding. That alone can increase the supply of love in the world.
Martha Beck
As any good Buddhist will tell you, the only way to find permanent joy is by embracing the fact that nothing is permanent.
Martha Beck
To make an activity joyful, keep adding things until the activity as a whole becomes more appealing than repulsing.
