You must have the guts to throw off the chains of modesty and mediocrity in order to be the light that the world needs.
Mary Allen has compiled a wealth of tools and resources - both inner and outer - to support you in consciously directing your untapped potential and creating a life that you love.
You must go into the dark in order to bring forth your light.
We choose to forget aspects of ourselves and then we forget that we've forgotten.
Your soul is infinitely creative. It is alive and expansive in nature. It is curious and playful, changing with the tides of time.
If we want a new future that does not look like our past, we must make new choices in the present.
To experience emotional freedom, we must accept, surrender, and let go of our wounds. We must be willing to take responsibility for what we're holding on to, which is usually a hurt or pain from the past that leaves us feeling victimized.
Write down the area of your life that most needs your attention right now, and then write out the details of your soul's vision for this part of your life. What does it look like? How will achieving your goal change your life? How will it change the lives of those around you? When you reach your goal, when you fulfill that desire, what will you make room for? Take a few minutes to write it all down.
Every day, each of us makes a multitude of choices that will impact our lives...the quality of our choices will dictate whether we will struggle in frustration or live an extraordinary life--the life of our dreams.
Divorce becomes a holy moment when you choose to use it as a catalyst for having an extraordinary life.
In order to find peace, we must expose the masks we use to hide behind.
There is no quality that we respond to in another that we lack. It might be hidden behind some bad behavior or an old, outdated shadow belief that says we are the exact opposite of what we are seeing in the other person. But I promise you that if you are attracted to a quality in someone else, no matter how great, it also exists inside of you.
Your LiFe will be transformed when you make peace with your shadow.
