Powerful beyond measure: our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light not our dark-ness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves: Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually who are you not to be? Your playing small doesn't serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine.
