You cannot get to where you are going until you have learned all there is to learn about where you are.
Iyanla VanzantSo many of us invest a fortune making ourselves look good to the world, yet inside we are falling apart. It's time to invest on the inside.
Iyanla VanzantIf you are a card-carrying human being, chances are that you share the same fear as all other humans: the fear of losing love, respect and connection to others. And if you are human, in order to avoid or prevent the pain, trauma and perceived devastation of the loss, you will do anything to avoid your greatest fear from being visited on you.
Iyanla VanzantWhen you need to be loved, you take love wherever you can find it. When you are desperate to be loved, feel love, know love, you seek out what you think love should look like. When you find love, or what you think love is, you will lie, kill, and steal to keep it. But learning about real love comes from within. It cannot be given. It cannot be taken away. It grows from your ability to re-create within yourself, the essence of loving experiences you have had in your life.
