Willingness

 

Where there is a willfulness, there is a wall. Where there is a willingness, there is a way.

Where there is a willfulness, there is a wall. Where there is a willingness, there is a way.

Michael Beckwith

Some people look for a beautiful place. Others make a place beautiful.

Some people look for a beautiful place. Others make a place beautiful.

Hazrat Inayat Khan

There is no investment you can make which will pay you so well as the effort to scatter sunshine and good cheer through your establishment.

Orison Swett Marden

Just don’t give up trying to do what you really want to do. When there is love and inspiration, I don’t think you can go wrong.

Ella Fitzgerald

Flexible strength is better than inflexible. Let the storm flow over you, and then pop back up.

Michael Kabotie, HOPI

Going with the flow is responding to cues from the universe. When you go with the flow, you’re surfing Life force. It’s about wakeful trust and total collaboration with what’s showing up for you.

Danielle LaPorte

Negative emotion is your indicator of resistance, while positive emotion is your indicator of allowance. And they are on the same meter: allowance; resistance. Allowance; resistance.

Abraham-Hicks, from the workshop in Monterey, CA on Tuesday, March 20, 2001

...openness would strengthen them more than caution and protection.

Tama Kieves in Inspired and Unstoppable

The word patience means the willingness to stay where we are and live the situation out to the fullest in the belief that something hidden there will manifest itself to us.

Henri JM Nouwen

We cannot become what we want to be by remaining what we are.

Max DePree

Nothing is easy to the unwilling.

Thomas Fuller

Being willing makes you able.

from Fearless Living by Rhonda Britten (about Rhonda Britten)

Rain actually falls high above the desert, but fails to reach the ground below. This is because the water evaporates when striking a zone of hot and dry air. Man has his own zone of resistance and ignorance which prevents refreshing truth from reaching him. Receptivity changes everything, including your home life.

The Daily Guru

An aspect of Fearless Living is the ability to accept wonderful things into our lives. In the midst of this holiday season, I challenge you to acknowledge that you do indeed receive some amazing things. Perhaps it was a smile from a stranger or you found a great gift on sale.

When you receive, you are activating the second part of the formula called 'Giving AND Receiving'.

Our ability to receive is a necessary component if we desire to own our power, claim our worth and live fearlessly.

from Fearless Living by Rhonda Britten (about Rhonda Britten)

To not know, but do the best as is known, felt, experienced in self, to him it is counted as righteousness.

Edgar Cayce Reading 1728-2

One can never consent to creep when one feels an impulse to soar.

Helen Keller

Better to do something imperfectly than to do nothing flawlessly.

Robert Schuller

I stood for a long time by the roller coaster, and I noticed that most people get on it in search of excitement, but that once it starts, they are terrified and want the cars to stop.

What do they expect? Having chosen adventure, shouldn’t they be prepared to go the whole way? Or do they think that the intelligent thing to do would be to avoid the ups and downs and spend all their time on a carousel, going round and round on the spot?

… The roller coaster is my life; life is a fast, dizzying game; life is a parachute jump; it’s taking chances, falling over and getting up again; it’s mountaineering; it’s wanting to get to the very top of yourself and to feel angry and dissatisfied when you don’t manage it.

… If I had fallen asleep and suddenly woken up on a roller coaster, what would I feel?

… Well, I would feel trapped and sick, terrified of every bend, wanting to get off. However, if I believe that the track is my destiny and that God is in charge of the machine, then the nightmare becomes something thrilling. It becomes exactly what it is, a roller coaster, a safe, reliable toy, which will eventually stop, but, while the journey lasts, I must look at the surrounding landscape and whoop with excitement.

Maria, in Eleven Minutes by Paulo Coelho

Willingness is essential in any initiation or in making an dream come true. "I can't" often means "I won't." You can change "I won't" to "I will" with willpower.

Marcia Wieder, American speaker, trainer and author

In order to make any permanent changes, you have to be willing. Willing to see things differently. Willing to experience new ideas. Willing to listen to the people who cheered you on rather than ones who echoed your fears.

from Fearless Living by Rhonda Britten (about Rhonda Britten)

We must be willing to get rid of the life we’ve planned so as to have the life that is waiting for us.

Joseph Campbell

Flow is a truce with struggle. Struggle will tell you to push the boat ever harder. Flow says just allow the river to carry you onward. Flow has a sense of ease and grace. There is no forcing of anything, no need to persuade or cajole. Flow is the way if you are interested in living in a world of abundance, love and support.
