More quotes by Melody Beattie
Each moment in time we have it all, even when we think we don't.
Melody Beattie
Sometimes, we don't get what we want. . . But this is a benevolent universe. And once in a while, we do.
Melody Beattie
Money is not evil. There is no scarcity, except in our mind and attitudes. And what we believe we deserve will be about what we shall receive.
Melody Beattie
We see and understand more about our behaviors. We come aware. And aware. And aware. . . Often, we feel uncertain about what to do with all this awareness.
Melody Beattie
Panic, not the task, is the enemy.
Melody Beattie
Whatever we try to control does have control over us and our life.
Melody Beattie
All endings are inexorably tied to new beginnings. That's the nature of the journey. It continues to unfold. It builds on itself. It can't help itself from doing that. Cherish the moments, all of them. You have seen and felt much in life so far. But still, the best is yet to come.
Melody Beattie
I pray for faith that my future will be good if I live today well, and in peace. I will remember that staying in the present is the best thing I can do for my future. I will focus on what’s happening now instead of what’s going to happen tomorrow.
Melody Beattie
Live your life from your heart. Share from your heart. And your story will touch and heal people's souls.
Melody Beattie
If that person doesn't want to be in your life, just let him or her leave.
Melody Beattie
Nurtured, nourished people, who love themselves and care for themselves, are the delight of the Universe.
Melody Beattie
The lesson I was learning involved the idea that I could feel compassion for people without acting on it.
Melody Beattie
Arranging for and allowing ourselves to have fun is an important part of taking care of ourselves. It helps us stay healthy. It helps us work better. It balances life. We deserve to have fun. Fun is a normal part of being alive. Fun is taking time to celebrate being alive.
Melody Beattie
Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend.
Melody Beattie
...Help me let go of my need to stay immersed in negativity. I can change the energy in myself and my environment from negative to positive. I will affirm the good until it sinks in and feels real. I will also strive to find one quality that I like about someone else who's important to me, and I will take the risk of telling him or her that.
Melody Beattie
Anger is a warning signal. It points to problems.
Melody Beattie
Be patient. Relax and trust. Let go. Then, let go some more.
Melody Beattie
Resentments are hardened chunks of anger. They loosen up and dissolve with forgiveness and letting go.
Melody Beattie
Seek healing, a refilling of energy and spirit, as soon as you see that you need it. You don't have to push yourself to give, do, or perform when what your body, mind, soul and emotions need is to heal.
Melody Beattie
Worrying, obsessing, and controlling are illusions. They are tricks we play on ourselves.
