Empowerment Quotes
Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life; define yourself. ~Harvey Fierstein
Start living now. Stop saving the good china for that special occasion. Stop withholding your love until that special person materializes. Every day you are alive is a special occasion. Every minute, every breath, is a gift.
~Mary Manin Morrissey
Courage is reclaiming your life after a devastating event robs you of your confidence and self-esteem. It is facing tomorrow with a firm resolve to reach deep within yourself to find another strength, another talent. ... It is taking yourself to another level of your own existence where you are once again whole, productive, special.
~Catherine Britton
The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own. No apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on, or blame. The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins. ~Bob Moawad
One of the greatest moments in anybody's developing experience is when he no longer tries to hide from himself but determines to get acquainted with himself as he really is. ~Norman Vincent Peale
You have been criticizing yourself for years, and it hasn't worked. Try approving of yourself and see what happens. ~ Louise L. Hay
There is no passion to be found playing small - in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.~ credited to both Nelson Mandella & Marrianne Williamson
Any change, any loss, does not make us victims. Others can shake you, surprise you, disappoint you, but they can't prevent you from acting, from taking the situation you're presented with and moving on. No matter where you are in life, no matter what your situation, you can always do something. You always have a choice... and the choice can be power. ~Blaine Lee
I will not die an unlived life. I will not live in fear of falling or catching fire. I choose to inhabit my days, to allow my living to open me, to make me less afraid, more accessible, to loosen my heart until it becomes a wing, a torch, a promise. I choose to risk my significance; to live so that which comes to me as... seed goes to the next as blossom & that which comes to me as blossom, goes on as fruit. ~ D. Markova
This life is yours. Take the power to choose what you want to do and do it well. Take the power to love what you want in life and love it honestly. Take the power to walk in the forest and be a part of nature. Take the power to control your own life. No one else can do it for you. Take the power to make your life happy. -- Susan Polis Schutz
Don’t let the experiences of the past limit your vision for the future. A voice from the past may keep telling us we can’t be more than we have been. Sometimes, our boss, a co-worker, friends or family may tell us the same thing. We are not our past. The past is a long series of lessons that give us wisdom, not a prison that defines who we are or what we can be. What we envision and believe shapes our future. ~ Author Unknown
When you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary project, all your thoughts break their bonds: Your mind transcends limitations, your consciousness expands in every direction, and you find yourself in a new, great, and wonderful world. Dormant forces, faculties and talents become alive, and your discover yourself to be a greater person by far than you ever dreamed yourself to be.~ Patanjali
Be of service. Whether you make yourself available to a friend or co-worker, or you make time every month to do volunteer work, there is nothing that harvests more of a feeling of empowerment than being of service to someone in need. ~Gillian Anderson
The possibilities are unlimited as long as you are true to your life's purpose. ~Marcia Wieder
