Regardless of how hard, challenging, frightening, or difficult an experience may seem, everything is just as it needs to be in order for us to heal, grow, and learn.
Iyanla VanzantSpiritual consciousness does not make your problems go away; it does, however, help you view them from a different vantage point.
Iyanla VanzantWhat keeps us from achieving our heart's desires is not anything outside of us, it's the conflict inside.
Iyanla VanzantWhether at work, at home or in public, we have been trained to believe that who we are at the core of our being is often unacceptable. As a result, we work diligently to live up to - and sometimes down to - what others have made us out to be, whether or not it is an accurate reflection of who we are.
Iyanla VanzantStaying focused on a project or plan is one of the most difficult challenges we face. There is always the house to clean, calls to make, laundry to fold, deadlines to meet. Actually, there is only one thing that keeps us from our goals - lack of focus. And very often, lack of focus is caused by fear.
