More quotes by Melody Beattie
It's easy to see and notice what we like in other people. Sometimes, it's not as easy to see the attributes and beauty in ourselves. It's good to see the beauty in others. But sometimes, take a moment and get excited when you notice what's beautiful in yourself, too.
Melody Beattie
Worrying, obsessing, and controlling are illusions. They are tricks we play on ourselves.
Melody Beattie
Much of the time, the things we feel guilty about are not our issues. Another person behaves inappropriately or in some way violates our boundaries. We challenge the behavior, and the person gets angry and defensive. Then we feel guilty.
Melody Beattie
You don't blast a heart open, she said. You coax and nurture it open, like the sun does to a rose.
Melody Beattie
Gratitude turns what we have into enough.
Melody Beattie
Goals give us direction. They put a powerful force into play on a universal, conscious, and subconscious level. Goals give our life direction.
Melody Beattie
Our strength will continue if we allow ourselves the courage to feel scared, weak, and vulnerable.
Melody Beattie
Remember to be kind. Remember to be loving. Remember to feel all your feelings and to take care of yourself. But most of all, remember to be happy.
Melody Beattie
When our heart is broken, we can't hear it. And when we can't hear our heart, we can't hear God.
Melody Beattie
Nurtured, nourished people, who love themselves and care for themselves, are the delight of the Universe.
Melody Beattie
We are on a very rich emotional and physical journey on this planet.
Melody Beattie
Today I will focus on a peaceful pace, rather than a harried one. I will keep moving forward gently, not frantically. I will let go of my need to be anxious and upset and will replace these feelings with calmness and harmony.
Melody Beattie
We have as much time as we need.
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
Today I will stop trying to control my relationships. I will participate at a reasonable level and let the other person do the same. I can let go, knowing that the relationship will find its own life-or not-and that I don't have to do all the work, only my share.
Melody Beattie
Each moment in time we have it all, even when we think we don't.
Melody Beattie
Today I will tell myself that I'm lovable. Just because some people haven't been able to love me in ways that worked doesn't mean that I'm unlovable. I've had lessons to learn, and some of them have hurt deeply, but I can still love, and I still am loved.
Melody Beattie
Love means each person is free to follow his or her own heart.
Melody Beattie
Live your life from your heart. Share from your heart. And your story will touch and heal people's souls.
Melody Beattie
Real power comes when we stop holding others responsible for our pain, and we take responsibility for all our feelings.
