Iyanla Vanzant Life Quotations

People say I've had a difficult time in life. I think I've had an exciting time in life.

I've always wanted people to know who they are from the inside. Then they can create the life they desire and deserve. I've always believed that my job was to facilitate the evolution of the human consciousness.

The only thing that goes on in your life is what your allow to go on in your life

With all things in life, we do not get what we ask for, we get what we expect.

Stop hiding! Stop holding yourself back and playing yourself down! Stop worrying about how you look and what people are saying. Stop listening to what people are saying and trying to find out if they are whispering about you. Stop waiting for someone to tell you that you are okay or to make you feel special. Life is special! It is a special gift. This is your life! Now take your gift and live it out in the open! Decide today that you are going to live out loud!

People may not like what you do, people may not like how you do it, but these people are not living your life. You are!

When your life is working there will be an absence of drama

The only energy that has any power in your life is the gift of breath from God.

You work for God Incorporated.

There are no guarantees in life, but it is a sure thing that you will get back what you give. If you give 100 percent of your attention, energy, and time to a thing, you will get exactly that back. Make sure you give all that you have to make sure you will get all that you need.

Life doesn't have to be hard, life is on your side.

The only relationship we can have in this life is the relationship we have with ourselves. We cannot love anybody more than we love ourselves. We cannot treat anyone any better than we treat ourselves. When you forget you, give up on you, or devalue yourself, anyone coming into your life has a universal responsibility to follow your lead.
