Eating Disorder Recovery Quotes: Acceptance
Understanding is the first step to acceptance,
and only with acceptance can there be recovery.
~Joanne Kathleen Rowling
and only with acceptance can there be recovery.
~Joanne Kathleen Rowling
There are two primary choices in life: to accept conditions as they exist, or accept the responsibility for changing them.
~Denis Waitley
Accepting does not necessarily mean liking, enjoying, or condoning. I can accept what is—and be determined to evolve from there. It is not acceptance but denial that leaves me stuck.
~Nathaniel Branden
We cannot change anything until we accept it. Condemnation does not liberate, it oppresses.
~Carl Jung
Only by acceptance of the past, can you alter it.
~T.S. Eliot
We must accept life for what it actually is -- a challenge to our quality without which we should never know of what stuff we are made, or grow to our full stature.
~Ida R. Wylie
Acceptance is not submission; it is acknowledgment of the facts of a situation. Then deciding what you're going to do about it.
~Kathleen Casey Theisen

~Albert Einstein

Accept everything about yourself -- I mean everything, you are you and that is the beginning and the end -- no apologies, no regrets.
~Henry Kissinger
When you find peace within yourself, you become the kind of person who can live at peace with others.
~Peace Pilgrim
Some people confuse acceptance with apathy, but there's all the difference in the world. Apathy fails to distinguish between what can and what cannot be helped; acceptance makes that distinction. Apathy paralyzes the will-to-action; acceptance frees it by relieving it of impossible burdens.
~Arthur Gordon
Lord grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.
~Saint Francis of Assisi
To succeed, it is necessary to accept the world as it is - and rise above it.
~Michael Korda
Many of us crucify ourselves between two thieves - regret for the past and fear of the future.
~Fulton Oursler
Acceptance of one's life has nothing to do with resignation; it does not mean running away from the struggle. On the contrary, it means accepting it as it comes, with all the handicaps of heredity, of suffering, of psychological complexes and injustices.
~Paul Tournier
Belief consists in accepting the affirmations of the soul; unbelief, in denying them.
~Ralph Waldo Emerson
Acceptance of what has happened is the first step to overcoming the consequences of any misfortune.
~ William James

You are wholly complete and your success in life will be in direct proportion to your ability to accept this truth about you.
~ Dr. Robert Anthony.
Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect. It means that you've decided to look beyond the imperfections.
~Unknown
You must accept that you might fail; then, if you do your best and still don't win, at least you can be satisfied that you've tried. If you don't accept failure as a possibility, you don't set high goals, and you don't branch out, you don't try-you don't take the risk.
~ Rosalynn Smith Carter
Serenity comes when you trade expectations for acceptance.

~Russell Rowe
The way I see it, if you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain.
~Dolly Parton
Where you are and what you are right now has to be made right, even if you don’t like it that much. Nevertheless, it is you. By criticizing and negating the current circumstances, what you are saying is that you are not okay. What is around you is only an extension of who you are. Look at those things and realize that they are what they are, imperfect though they may be. By accepting the truth, you propel yourself into better circumstances. By resisting, you live in the constant negativity of your own dissatisfaction.
~Stuart Wilde
A man cannot be comfortable without his own approval.
~Mark Twain
Self acceptance comes from meeting life's challenges vigorously. Don't numb yourself to your trials and difficulties, nor build mental walls to exclude pain from your life. You will find peace not by trying to escape your problems, but by confronting them courageously. You will find peace not in denial, but in victory..
~J. Donald Walters
Give love and unconditional acceptance to those you encounter, and notice what happens.
~Wayne Dyer
When you're a beautiful person on the inside, there is nothing in the world that can change that about you. Jealousy is the result of one's lack of self-confidence, self-worth, and self-acceptance. The Lesson: If you can't accept yourself, then certainly no one else will.
~Sasha Azevedo
Always fall in with what you're asked to accept. Take what is given, and make it over your way. My aim in life has always been to hold my own with whatever's going. Not against: with.
~Robert Frost
Perhaps the most important thing we can undertake toward the reduction of fear is to make it easier for people to accept themselves, to like themselves.
~Bonaro W. Overstreet
My definition of success is total self acceptance. We can obtain all of the material possessions we desire quite easily, however, attempting to change our deepest thoughts and learning to love ourselves is a monumental challenge.
~Franki
A man cannot be comfortable without his own approval.
~Mark Twain
Self-acceptance comes from meeting life's challenges vigorously. Don't numb yourself to your trials and difficulties, nor build mental walls to exclude pain from your life. You will find peace not by trying to escape your problems, but by confronting them courageously. You will find peace not in denial, but in victory.
~J. Donald Walters

Eating Disorder Recovery Quotes: Forgiveness
Whether it's the wrongs we have done (to others or ourselves), or the wrongs that others have committed against us, forgiveness is necessary in order to move forward with our lives, to be happy, and to recover.
Forgiveness is a gift we give ourselves. It's not a magic eraser, or a way to excuse or justify offending behavior (or to allow it to continue). It's a way of letting go of our anger, resentment, embarrassment, and pain. It empowers us, allowing us to regain peace and begin healing.
Forgiveness isn't always easy. It's usually very challenging. It takes practice, just like any other worthwhile skill.
________
Many people are afraid to forgive because they feel they must remember the wrong or they will not learn from it. The opposite is true. Through forgiveness, the wrong is released from its emotional stranglehold on us so that we can learn from it. Through the power and intelligence of the heart, the release of forgiveness brings expanded intelligence to work with the situation more effectively.
~David McArthur & Bruce McArthur
When you hold resentment toward another, you are bound to that person or condition by an emotional link that is stronger than steel. Forgiveness is the only way to dissolve that link and get free.
~Catherine Ponder
Forgiveness is giving up the possibility of a better past.
~Unknown
Forgive or Relive.
~Unknown
It is very easy to forgive others their mistakes; it takes more grit and gumption to forgive them for having witnessed your own.
~Jessamyn West
To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you.
~Lewis B. Smedes
We achieve inner health only through forgiveness - the forgiveness not only of others but also of ourselves.
~ Joshua Loth Liebman
Forgiveness is the fragrance that the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it.
~Mark Twain
There is no love without forgiveness, and there is no forgiveness without love.
~Bryant H. McGill
To forgive is the highest, most beautiful form of love. In return, you will receive untold peace and happiness.
~Robert Muller
Sincere forgiveness isn't colored with expectations that the other person apologize or change. Don't worry whether or not they finally understand you. Love them and release them. Life feeds back truth to people in its own way and time.
~Sara Paddison
Always forgive your enemies - nothing annoys them so much.
~Oscar Wilde
When a deep injury is done us, we never recover until we forgive.
~Alan Paton
Life is an adventure in forgiveness.
~Norman Cousins
Forgiveness is the giving, and so the receiving, of life.
~George MacDonald
Forgiveness is the economy of the heart... forgiveness saves the expense of anger, the cost of hatred, the waste of spirits.
~Hannah Moore
People find it far easier to forgive others for being wrong than for being right.
~JK Rowling
Most of us can forgive and forget; we just don't want the other person to forget that we forgave.
~Ivern Ball
Forgiveness means that you've decided not to let it keep festering inside even if it only comes up once in awhile.
~Doc Childre and Howard Martin
Never forget the three powerful resources you always have available to you: love, prayer, and forgiveness.
~ H. Jackson Brown, Jr.
Forgiveness does not change the past, but it does enlarge the future.
~Paul Boese
Forgiveness means letting go of the past.
~Gerald Jampolsky
Without forgiveness, there's no future.
~Desmond Tutu
True forgiveness is not an action after the fact, it is an attitude with which you enter each moment.
~David Ridge
Forgiveness is a funny thing. It warms the heart and cools the sting.
~William Arthur Ward
We are full of weakness and errors; let us mutually pardon each other our follies.
~Voltaire
Anger makes us smaller, while forgiveness forces you to grow beyond what you were.
~Cherie Carter Scott
He who cannot forgive breaks the bridge over which he himself must pass.

~George Herbert
Forgiveness is me giving up my right to hurt you for hurting me.

Buddah
"Self-worth comes from one thing ... thinking that you are worthy."

Sasha Azevedo

Nathaniel Hawthorn
“When your self-worth goes up, your net worth goes up with it.”
Mark Victor Hanson

Dr. Joyce Brothers
"There's only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that's your own self. So you have to begin there, not outside, not on other people."
Aldous Huxley
"After a while you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul and you learn that love doesn't mean security and you begin to learn that kisses aren't contracts and presents aren't promises you begin to accept your defeats with your head up and your eyes open, with the grace of a woman, not the grief of a child and you learn to build your roads on today because tomorrow's ground is too uncertain and futures have a way of falling down in mid-flight after a while you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much so, you plant your own garden and decorate your own soul instead of waiting for someone else to bring you flowers and you learn you really can endure that you really are strong you really do have worth and you learn and you learn with every good-bye you learn."
