Quote

Perhaps the greatest mistake we can make, which causes loss of self-respect, is making the opinions of others more important than our own opinion of ourselves. You'll find no shortage of opinions directed at you. If you allow them to undermine your self-respect, you're seeking the respect of others over your own, and you're abdicating yourself.

No one knows enough to be a pessimist
Wayne Dyer
Image
No one can create negativity or stress within you. Only you can do that by virtue of how you process your world.
Wayne Dyer
Image
Anger is a choice, as well as a habit. It is a learned reaction to frustration, in which you behave in ways that you would rather not. In fact, severe anger is a form of insanity. You are insane whenever you are not in control of your behavior. Therefore, when you are angry and out of control, you are temporarily insane.
Wayne Dyer
Image
Once you believe in yourself and see your soul as divine and precious, you'll automatically be converted to a being who can create miracles.
Wayne Dyer
Image
Our intention creates our reality.
Wayne Dyer
Image
Failure is a judgment, an opinion. It stems from your fears, which can be eliminated by love-love for yourself, love for what you do, love for others, and love for your planet.
Wayne Dyer
Image
View the events you consider obstacles as perfect opportunities to test your resolve and find your purpose.
Wayne Dyer
Image
There is no past. That's another illusion. Everything that has ever happened to you, to me, to anyone in this world, happened in the present moment. That's all there ever is. So your relationship to life isn't your relationship to your past, it's your relationship to the present moment.
Wayne Dyer

Love what you do Do what you love.
Wayne Dyer
Image
Progress and growth are impossible if you always do things the way you've always done things.
Wayne Dyer
Image
The child in you, like all children, loves to laugh, to be around people who can laugh at themselves and life. Children instinctively know that the more laughter we have in our lives, the better.
Wayne Dyer
Image
Free will is something that people struggle with so much, but it's very simple to me. Carl Jung said at the same moment you're a protagonist in your own life making choices, you also are the spear carrier, or the extra, in a much larger drama. You've got to live with these two opposite ideas at the same time.
Wayne Dyer
Image
Every time we have a thought that's not a thought of kindness towards others - then we've left the field of intention and, therefore, lost the power of the field of intention, as well. The whole idea is to connect yourself back to this field from which all things emanate, to return to your source and watch it in every thought that you have.
Wayne Dyer
Image
We shouldn't want things and we should be satisfied with no thing. Furthermore, we don't deserve whatever we would like to have in our lives because we think we have been bad, we feel insufficient, or somebody else has convinced us that we're not worthy.
Wayne Dyer

I say no to doubt and yes to life!
Wayne Dyer

You can set your self as much as be sick, or you'll be able to select to remain properly.
Wayne Dyer
Image
It is easy to love people when they smell good, but sometimes they slip into the manure of life and smell awful. You must love them just as much when they smell foul.
Wayne Dyer
Image
When I was growing up, everybody smoked, including me. When I was 14, I started. We all did it. That was just the way it was. And nowadays there's a stigma attached to it. It's a big shift.
Wayne Dyer
Image
When I chased after money, I never had enough. When I got my life on purpose and focused on giving of myself and everything that arrived into my life, then I was prosperous.
Wayne Dyer
Image
When you live the virtues - when you live in that place of God-consciousness - all these rules we have about cause and effect, beginnings and ends, don't have any impact or relevance.
Wayne Dyer
