von Goethe

 

 

“Whatever you do, or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius and power and magic in it.”


~Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

I really love Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.
This quote in particular is one that speaks to me. I remembered it while I was attempting to sleep last night.

It ties in so nicely with what Inspire the Light is all about.

Don't wait.
The time is never right.
If you can dream it you can do it.
You are your own inspiration.
You have the light within you to create a magical life.

We are often our own worst critics.
Women, especially, are incredibly hard on themselves.
We believe that we are imperfect.
We believe that others have achieved perfection.

This is a lie.

Perfection does not exist.
There is no such thing.

And in any case, perfection is unimportant.

The truly important thing is to BE.
Be what you dream of.
Be who you dream of.
Be the inspiration in your life.
Be the person that you want to be.

Start by living the life right now, this second, that you dream of having.

Do you know what I mean by that?

If you want to be an artist, start creating art.
If you want to be a dancer, then start dancing.

 Don't wait for the "perfect" non-existant time!

What is it that you want your life to be?

Start creating it today.
Start living today the life you want to have.

Whatever you dream .... you can have it!

But make sure it is your dream, not the dream you think you should have.
The dream is yours.
Be yourself. Be who YOU are.
Do what makes YOU happy, not what you think *should* make you happy.

Inspire your own dream

Become the amazing, beautiful, powerful creature that you are capable of becoming.

“If I accept you as you are, I will make you worse; however if I treat you as though you are what you are capable of becoming, I help you become that.”


~Johann Wolfgang von Goethe


You already are what you are capable of becoming...you just need to let that light shine out!
