Quotes by Florence Witt  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“When I am scared, all my intentions are focused on survival and not on living to the fullest. Certainly, not on benevolence, not on being my best, not on becoming a better version of myself, not on loving myself or others.
Fear whispers “survive.” Not “live.”
― Florence Witt

“In order to experience bliss and contentment, we must not only be willing to live in the present—not in the past or looking toward the future—but also to accept that pain is a real possibility, if not a probability.

This is not to say that joy must come with pain, but instead, that pain could arrive in the midst of joy and this fact scares us senseless. We would rather half live than risk encountering unspeakable pain at the core of indescribable delight.

We erroneously believe that being a perpetual emotional flatline is better than experiencing the highs and the lows of living.”
― Florence Witt, Say Yes: Answering the Invitation to Live an Authentic Life

“Life is meant to be lived as you...not a copy, not what someone or life has made you.
The world needs you in your purest form. For heaven's sake, you need you in your purest form.”
― Florence Witt

“Going inward. That’s the real work. The solutions are not outside of us. Get to know who you really are, because as you search for the hero within, you inevitably become one.”
― Emma Tiebens

“What really frightens and dismays us is not external events themselves, but the way in which we think about them. It is not things that disturb us, but our interpretation of their significance.”
― Epictetus

“If you are always trying to be normal, you will never know how amazing you can be.”
― Maya Angelou

“When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves.”
― Viktor E. Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning

“Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.”
― Viktor E. Frankl
