Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not out darkness, that frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightening about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you We are all meant to shine as children do. It's not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let out own light shine, we subconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
