More quotes by Melody Beattie
Today I will not wait for someone to come to my aid. I'm not helpless. Although help may come, I'm my own rescuer. My relationships will dramatically improve when I stop rescuing others and stop expecting others to rescue me.
Melody Beattie
Love means each person is free to follow his or her own heart.
Melody Beattie
Codependents are reactionaries. They overreact. They under-react. But rarely do they act. They react to the problems, pains, lives, and behaviors of others. They react to their own problems, pains, and behaviors.
Melody Beattie
Live your life from your heart. Share from your heart. And your story will touch and heal people's souls.
Melody Beattie
Gratitude helps us stop trying to control outcomes. It is the key that unlocks positive energy in our life. It is the alchemy that turns problems into blessings, and the unexpected into gifts.
Melody Beattie
Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow.
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
Caring works. Caretaking doesn't. We can learn to walk the line between the two.
Melody Beattie
Gratitude can turn a meal into a feast.
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
A codependent person is one who has let another person's behavior affect him or her and who is obsessed with controlling that person's behavior.
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
Life is always moving, changing, shifting into its next shape. The movement is natural. It is how we evolve. Let the shifts happen. Take responsibility for yourself each step of the way. Trust the new shape and form of your world
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
We have as much time as we need.
Melody Beattie
Quit hanging on to the handrails . . . Let go. Surrender. Go for the ride of your life. Do it every day.
Melody Beattie
Today, I will focus on having a good relationship with myself.
Melody Beattie
Letting go helps us to live in a more peaceful state of mind and helps restore our balance. It allows others to be responsible for themselves and for us to take our hands off situations that do not belong to us. This frees us from unnecessary stress.
Melody Beattie
Each moment in time we have it all, even when we think we don't.
Melody Beattie
We cannot change others, but when we change ourselves, we may end up changing the world.
