The Path Made Clear: Discovering Your Life's Direction and Purpose

by Oprah Winfrey

I define myself by my ability to give. I define myself by my ability to understand. I define myself by my ethics and by my truth.

We had something that sometimes you don’t have when you have too much. And that is the ability to focus on the human beings around you.

I allowed myself to fall into trust. And that’s when we learned that the opposite of more is enough.

Because you have created the situation based upon the way you’ve handled or managed your life.

All spiritual knowledge is not cognition. It’s recognition.

I have thought very deliberately and intentionally about my life, and why certain things happen and what they mean. I learned that the goal is to be whole. To reside inside your skin.

The Universe doesn’t look in terms of good, bad, better, worse, success, or failure. It looks in terms of limitation and opportunity. The more the loving parts of your personality are the ones you’re cultivating, the more opportunity you have. The more fear is controlling you, the more limitation you have.

How am I making things more difficult than they need to be?
