Kelly Martin QUOTES

1 " You are conditioned to believe that if you let go, if you surrender, you will either be a victim of circumstances and not assertive in your own being, or you will be viewed as being lazy, lacking in willpower, and un-motivated.

Yet will and power cannot exist alongside one another. Motivation does not come into question when you surrender fully into the present moment. Motivation to do, to take action, to make moves, comes naturally from this surrender. "

2 " God, the universe, life, whatever name you give to the bigger picture, is experiencing itself through you as a human being. A journey from effortlessness, playfulness, freedom, to human doing, suffering and beyond. You can all return to the effortlessness, playfulness, freedom and being, by allowing your moment-by-moment experience, allowing your feelings of pain, suffering, rage, anger and envy to be felt, observed and tenderly allowed. No more self-beating, no more rushing against the tide, no more trying to steer that canoe, for life knows the way, always has and always will. "

3 " Your outer world mirrors your inner world. How you view your outer world is how you view you, your inner world, the 'you' that needs your care, your attention, your compassion and your love. "

― Kelly Martin , When Everyone Shines But You: Saying Goodbye To I'm Not Good Enough

4 " Your self-worth and self-esteem cannot be changed by doing positive affirmations. If that were the case many people would be super confident and are not. It may appear to work for some, but only because they have already faced the hurts inside that have caused low self-worth and low self-esteem, and are ready to feel differently.

Acknowledging the pain and the suffering that take place inside you, and allowing the feelings, will take time, but this new way of handling these feelings will change the way you relate to you and to the outside world. "

5 " You'll be ready for this change - when you're ready – not a moment before. Don't beat yourself up if you're not ready. "

― Kelly Martin , When Everyone Shines But You: Saying Goodbye To I'm Not Good Enough

6 " When you look at your passions, your interests, and your own self, and see nothing of worth, then know that life will feed this belief back to you. If you can find a way to value yourself without exerting your will or your effort anymore, you will find that you need to do less, to shine more. "

― Kelly Martin , When Everyone Shines But You: Saying Goodbye To I'm Not Good Enough

7 " How do you surrender when every cell of your being is screaming that your life is not working and that you need to do something to make it work? How do you surrender in that moment when jealousies, envy, doubt, rage, resentment all rise up inside you? You accept that you are resisting letting go; you accept that perhaps you are not yet ready to take your hands off the steering wheel; you accept this with kindness to who you are in the moment, being gentle and tender instead of beating yourself over the head with the 'Must hurry up, time is of the essence, everyone is passing me by' train of thought. "

8 " Make sure you keep an inner state of flexibility, and are not tightly bound to your visions. "

― Kelly Martin , When Everyone Shines But You: Saying Goodbye To I'm Not Good Enough

9 " Your life has a natural motion. Surrendering reveals how flowing this life could be. "

― Kelly Martin , When Everyone Shines But You: Saying Goodbye To I'm Not Good Enough

10 " Now is the only time you have. Change is happening. Give up your desire to control the world "

― Kelly Martin , When Everyone Shines But You: Saying Goodbye To I'm Not Good Enough

11 " Some of you may feel that if you don't do something soon to change your life, you will be left by the roadside, alone, homeless and in despair. But is the despair not there as you reach and grapple to create or manifest your desires through your own effort and will? What happens if or when those things appear in your life? Joy? Peace? Or a temporary sense of relief?

What if it is relief from the wanting you have been craving for so long, not the outcome, but the relief from the constant wanting. "

― Kelly Martin , When Everyone Shines But You: Saying Goodbye To I'm Not Good Enough

12 " Are you able to open to the possibility that what you want is not what you need right now? If it was what you needed it would be in your life, right now, and it would come effortlessly. "

― Kelly Martin , When Everyone Shines But You: Saying Goodbye To I'm Not Good Enough

13 " I gained my wings when I believed they were there all along. It wasn't in the fixing or the healing of my personality that I recognised my worth it when I opened to the truth that I am whole right now, exactly as I am. Flaws, mistakes, fears. "

― Kelly Martin

14 " I realised that I needed the dark and the light to be a whole person. Trying to be happy by neglecting the harsh reality of my emotional world didn't work. All colours and shades of reality are experienced and by allowing these, without judgement, my heart opened to me. Self-love always starts with 'holding the hurt'. "

― Kelly Martin

15 " Rest a while as the new growth takes place. Observe changes in your outer and inner world. This is your foundation for the next step. "

― Kelly Martin

16 " Fight against and fall.
Instead, embrace it all.
Allow 'what is' to fill your
inner-space,
that's the essence of life
you now taste "

― Kelly Martin

17 " There is something within you that is wanting to emerge and greet this magnificent world.

Your invisibility serves no-one.
You deserve to be seen.
You deserve to be heard.
You deserve to let your magic out and for life to be a glorious adventure.

Do you think you're ready? It is time to remove the mask of invisibility; it is time to embrace the wonder of you. "

― Kelly Martin , When Everyone Shines But You: Saying Goodbye To I'm Not Good Enough

18 " Remove 'shoulds' from your vocabulary this year. Start your journey of self-love now. "

― Kelly Martin

19 " My light was held in the dark until I was ready. The darkness is not a thing to fear, simply a place of the unknown – yet to be. Embrace with love your own darkness and the light will reveal your worth. "

― Kelly Martin

20 " You're deliciously different, uniquely you, blessed with a heart of a lion and beautiful TOO!
'OWN' THAT SHIT! "
