Strength Quotes

And Quotes About Honesty

Here is a list of strength quotes to remind you of the strength and power that comes from being true to yourself and honest with others.

There is no reason to be ashamed of what you want or what is important to you.  The world wants your truth.  You are as you are and I hope that these strength quotes remind you that really the only thing worth being in life is integral with your inner guidance and conscience.

Self-Esteem Quotes

Below is a selection of self-esteem quotes spoken from a place of clear awareness describing a main cause of low self-esteem.

People think it is a virtue to disown parts of themselves of which they disapprove. All they succeed in doing is to keep themselves stuck with those parts forever. They have cut off the only means of growth or transformation. Nataniel Branden

The most terrifying thing is to accept oneself completely. Carl Gustav Jung

A man cannot be comfortable without his own approval. Mark Twain

Once we accept our limits, we go beyond them. Albert Einstein.

For real self esteem is not derived from the great things you’ve done, the things you won. The mark you’ve made – but an appreciation of yourself for what you are. Maxwell Max

The worst loneliness is not to be comfortable with yourself. Mark Twain.

If we really love ourselves, everything in our life works. Louise L. Hay

Some self esteem quotes pointing to what an experience of high self-esteem is like…

Those who are truly comfortable with themselves and their achievements take pleasure in being who they are, they do not need to tell the world about it. Nathaniel Branden

I am an artist of my own creation. I like myself. Sondra Ray

Love is the great miracle cure. Loving ourselves works miracles in our lives. Louise L. Hay

Nothing can bring you peace but yourself. Ralph Waldo Emerson

To be authentic, you have to be everything that you are, omitting nothing. Within everyone there is light/shadow, good/evil, love/hate. Deepak Chopra

Marianne Williamson Quotes, Spiritual Quotes, Words of Spiritual Encouragement, Self-Esteem, Self-Confidence

Wise Marianne
Williamson Quotes

Below are a selection of Marianne Williamson quotes to provide words of spiritual encouragement.

These spiritual quotes are provided here to help paint the picture of what this website is about when I refer to higher self-esteem and self-confidence.

The spiritual meaning of every situation: not what happens to us but what we do with what happens to us and who we decide to become because of what happens to us.

To achieve a miraculous experience of life, we must embrace a more spiritual perspective. Otherwise, we will die one day without ever having known the real joy of living.

As the mind is permeated by the realization of the awesome power that lies within us, and as we allow ourselves to embrace the principles of higher awareness, the ego in time takes a back-seat to higher truth. It cannot stand before a mind that has begun to awaken to its true reality.

I have learned, when in my life has been most painful, that the me who can be hurt is not the real me.

Is not an insult an opportunity for me to look at that part of myself that can be insulted and say “Ha, you’re not even really me”?

You’re not better than anyone esle, but neither are you worse than anyone else. All of us have special gifts, all of us are born to shine in one way or another.

The goal of spiritual practice is full recovery, and the only thing you need to recover from is a fractured sense of self.

Spiritual progress is like detoxification. Things have to come up in order to be released. Once we have asked to be healed, then our unhealed places are forced to the surface.

Do you prefer to be right or happy?

Eckhart Tolle Quotes, Spiritual Quotations, Encouragement Quotations

Wise Eckhart
Tolle Quotes

Below are the selected Eckhart Tolle quotes to provide words of spiritual encouragement.

The selected spiritual quotations are picked specifically for relevance to support the intention of this website to raise consciousness and therefore experience higher self esteem. These quotes have been taken from The Power of Now book, The Flowering of Human Consciousness DVD filmed in La Jolla, California 2001 and Practicing Presence DVD.

Whenever you watch the mind, you withdraw consciousness from mind forms, and then it becomes what we call the watcher or witness.

Happiness depends on conditions being perceived as positive; inner peace does not.

Do not fight against the body, for in doing so you are fighting against your own reality. Underneath it lies the invisible inner body, the doorway into Being.

If you keep your attention in the body as much as possible, you will be anchored in the Now. Thoughts and emotions, fears and desires, may still be there to some extent, but they won’t take you over.

Ultimately what we perceive as evil arises out of the ignorance of who you are, which is ultimately the ignorance of not knowing God, and that is one and the same.

You are connected to something more deeper and more vibrant – with yourself ultimately. You are yourself. Instead of running to the future to find yourself, continuously dwell in that sense of being.

Accept this moment completely and very quickly the stillness and the peace emerge – no matter what this moment contains.

Wise Deepak

Chopra Quotes

Below are selected spiritual quotations and other inspirational Deepak Chopra quotes.

The deepest hunger in life is a secret that is revealed only when a person is willing to unlock a hidden part of the self.

Finding the hidden dimensions in yourself is the only way to fulfill your deepest hunger.

You are a creature who acts, thinks and feels. Spirituality fuses these three into a single reality.

The one reality is spirit, and the surface of life is only a disguise with a thousand masks that keep us from discovering what is real.

If it weren’t for the enormous effort we put into denial, repression, and doubt, each life would be a constant revelation.

Ultimately you have to believe that your life is worth investigating with total passion and commitment.
