Quotes from Marsha Sinetar
 |
...gradual change is usually more fruitful in the long run than is forced, ultra-aggressive upheaval. Undertaken wisely, steady transitions cultivate authenticity, groundedness, and virtues--like patience, compassion (for self and others), and perseverance. All these qualities improve your probability of success when, ultimately, you do figure out how to actualize your personal vision.

Hesitation, depression or envy of those who appear to have what we want are often signs of weakness or lack of vigorous, clear purpose. These feelings may be saying we're not yet ready to create our good. When we're emotionally unprepared, we want something for nothing, and quickly.
- Marsha Sinetar |

Rather than denying problems, focus inventively, intentionally on what solutions might look or feel like...Our mind is meant to generate ideas that help us escape circumstantial traps--if we trust it to do so. Naturally, not all hunches are useful. But then you only need a single good idea to solve a problem.
- Marsha Sinetar |

The significant business of your life is alive and well, awaiting discovery, within your very soul. You and I were born to come into ourselves as complete and distinctive persons.

We first must think "I can," then behave appropriately along that line of thought.

What do your conversations say about your self-beliefs? Do your words and self-descriptions enable your creative skills, let you sustain the tensions of change? Or, does your everyday language discourage you, and cause you to run from unknown?
- Marsha Sinetar |
