Our Deepest Fear
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. It's not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” -- Marianne Williamson
I first seen this quote on a movie in the 10th grade. I was so moved by it. It is powerful and speaks truth. We are all special. We all have a purpose here. So here is a challenge to all. Take some time to think about what you can accomplish. To stop living in a shadow when your light is meant to shine. Whether it is for a new job, position, education, life, home, family. Don't be afraid to take that step. It is your time to shine.
I like it, very inspirational!!!! keep on letting your light shine and don’t be quiet for no one or allow the enemy to shut you up.Be bless!!!!!Take it one day at a time.
Sometimes one should hold back a bit that power, and unleash it when most don't expect it, because letting everything out in the wrong moment makes people already established in a company fear one's skills., and that's not good at all.
Great quote
Awesome Quote! I remember that quote from the movie "Coach Carter"- thank you for sharing!
Very powerful and moving quote.
We should never be afraid to let our God given light to shine. We must always let the light to shine within us, so everyone can see the Jesus within us!!
Beatrice, I have heard this before and it is so wonderfully true.Sometimes we feel that there is just so much that "Just happens" and we make choices accordingly. "Playing small does not serve the world" I am not a small player - thanks for the boost!
