It’s important that we share our experiences with other people. Your story will heal you and your story will heal somebody else. When you tell your story, you free yourself and give other people permission to acknowledge their own story.
Iyanla VanzantIyanla Vanzant You do not have to love what is going on in your life, but you must accept that it, whatever it is, is going on. As long as you do not accept reality, you are powerless to define the role you will play.
Iyanla VanzantIyanla Vanzant Many of us have a need to be right. We then set out to make ourselves right by making someone else wrong. We must get right with ourselves. Once we do, we will have so much to do, we will not have time to keep track of who is wrong.
Iyanla VanzantIyanla Vanzant Gratitude is like a magnet; the more grateful you are, the more you will receive to be grateful for.

Iyanla VanzantIyanla Vanzant Everybody does not have to like you. That is not their job. Liking you is not anyone’s purpose in life except yours.
Iyanla VanzantIyanla Vanzant Nothing destroys self-worth, self-acceptance and self-love faster than denying what you feel. Without feelings, you would not know where you are in life. Nor would you know what areas you need to work on. Honor your feelings. Allow yourself to feel them.
Iyanla VanzantIyanla Vanzant Every day is your day if you claim it. If you wait for somebody else to make it for you, you’re going to be disappointed.
Iyanla VanzantIyanla Vanzant Criticism does not make you smarter or better than the one you are criticizing. In fact, the stuff you are critical of in others is the same stuff you don’t like about yourself.
Iyanla VanzantIyanla Vanzant If someone has offended you, insulted you, or disappointed you, let it go! If you are remembering all the ways you have been hurt or forgotten, let it go! Ask yourself, what good does it do for me to hold on to this?
Iyanla VanzantIyanla Vanzant When you make a decision and a commitment to do something good for yourself, it is like dropping a pebble in a pond. It has a rippling effect. The firmer the decision, the stronger the frequency and wider the range of things that will be reached.
Iyanla VanzantIyanla Vanzant When you can tell the story and it doesn’t bring up any pain, you know it is healed.
Iyanla VanzantIyanla Vanzant It is not your duty or responsibility to change the minds of other people. The nature of their thinking is advanced or limited by their experience. In your presence, they have an opportunity to learn about you and, perhaps, to grow.
Iyanla VanzantIyanla Vanzant Just for today, allow yourself to embrace all that you are every moment. Know that you are a vessel of light. Allow yourself to release all doubts about your ability, the mistakes of the past, the fear of the future.
