Quote by Marianne Williamson

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 darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you NOT to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us, it is in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest

Summary

This quote, often attributed to Marianne Williamson, explores the idea that our fear does not stem from inadequacy, but from our untapped potential and power. It suggests that we are often afraid to embrace our brilliance and talents, questioning our right to be extraordinary. However, this fear holds us back from making a positive impact on the world. By shining our unique light, we inspire others to do the same, allowing them to break free from their own insecurities. Ultimately, by overcoming our fears, we empower and liberate both ourselves and those around us.
