Shine Consciously
Quotes by Orsolya Riszt
Commentary by Peter Shepherd

“Every single negative feeling is the non-acceptance of what is.” ~ Orsolya Riszt
Resistance is of the mind, of the ego, and leads to frustration, anger, fear, depression. Acceptance of what is, on the other hand, takes you immediately into a peaceful, timeless state of simply being.
“The only way to get back your self-esteem is to give it back to yourself. Bit by bit.” ~ Orsolya Riszt
As Nathaniel Branden says, "People of high self-esteem are not driven to make themselves superior to others: they do not seek to prove their value by measuring themselves against a comparative standard. Their joy is being who they are, not in being better than someone else." We just have to be more and more our true selves, to recognize our inherent value.
“The moment we are open to feel our feelings, freedom is knocking on our door.” ~ Orsolya Riszt
You cannot find your joy without also being open to your sorrow. The door you open to give love to yourself is the very one through which love arrives.
“As long as you want to control, your ego controls you.” ~ Orsolya Riszt
Feeling the need to control others is far from communication, understanding and empathy - traveling down the path of egotism, it ends to take you over.
“When you talk from your heart, your ego has a rest.” ~ Orsolya Riszt
The other side of the coin: give the ego a rest and our spirit gets a chance to shine - and really communicate!

Here’s some further reading on this theme...

Orsolya Riszt has lived a very intense and varied life. She taught at the Technical University of Budapest and then moved to Italy with her family. After experiencing some significant downturns in her life, she discovered the value and power of personal development and in the past few years she has developed the version of Trans4mind in Hungarian language and moved to France, living next door now to Peter Shepherd. By learning to be focused, to live in the moment, to take responsibility for her actions and reactions, to handle and direct her thoughts and emotions - in short, through personal development - she dared to be herself again. And she is deeply convinced that anybody can make such a transformation.
