When we have begun to take charge of our lives, to own ourselves, there is no longer any need to ask permission of someone. ~ George O'Neil
Take Charge quotes by George O'Neil
I liked that you have to sometimes get into a situation that might not be a comfortable one - so, overcome your fear and good things will happen - if you want someone to know something, or you have to really take charge and do it yourself and go for it. With the Boxtrolls, they want people to know they're not mean guys, but they're too scared to show anyone. They have to eventually work up the courage to show that and gain the confidence. ~ Elle Fanning
Take Charge quotes by Elle Fanning
The power to change is in my hands. ~ Helen M. Ryan
Take Charge quotes by Helen M. Ryan
Do not create opportunities for beasts and evils to take charge of your life. ~ Sean F. Hogan
Take Charge quotes by Sean F. Hogan
Burke had little notion of the conditions in which the monarchy he mourned had left us to face our new masters.
The administration of the Ancien Régime had deprived the French in advance of both the ability and the desire to help one another. When the Revolution came, one would have searched in vain in most of France for ten men accustomed to acting together in a disciplined way and defending themselves. The central government alone was supposed to
take charge of defending them all, so that when the royal administration lost control of that central government to a sovereign and unaccountable assembly, and this once complacent body turned terrifying, nothing could stop it or even slow it for a moment. The same cause that had brought the monarchy down so easily made everything possible after its fall. ~ Alexis De Tocqueville
Take Charge quotes by Alexis De Tocqueville
And so to those who suggest that we are somehow 'harming' young women by encouraging them to take charge of their health we say this: We are not harming young women by educating them. We are arming them with information that they will carry with them throughout their lives. ~ Debbie Wasserman Schultz
Take Charge quotes by Debbie Wasserman Schultz
A Person spends a whole day, five days a week or more, working hard to make money, but few ever think beyond this fact. They live from pay cheque to pay cheque, drifting through life, and only realize too late that what they have been doing was not wise at all.
As individuals it is now time we take charge of our money and plan for it, otherwise it will plan for you. ~ Neala Okuromade
Take Charge quotes by Neala Okuromade
It was time for a strong-minded woman to take charge. Abdullah was quite glad that Sophie was one. ~ Diana Wynne Jones
Take Charge quotes by Diana Wynne Jones
Alphahole?' Rex asked.
'It's one of those things in the blogs I read,' Gemma said. 'Shorthand for an a****le alpha male who tries to take charge of everything and acts like a d***. ~ Liza Street
Take Charge quotes by Liza Street
It was time for me to take charge and live my life instead of letting something that had happened to me lead it for me. So many people had told me the same thing, hundreds of times. It was something I had to learn for myself. ~ Chelsea M. Cameron
Take Charge quotes by Chelsea M. Cameron
Why do we make gardens? The act seems so extravagant, so illogical. Don't we have enough hard work in our lives already? Are we looking for more? Why on earth do we bother?
It takes a kind of courage. You have to learn to cherish. You have to dare, to take the risk, to bother, to care. To make a garden, you have to be able to love and to see yourself as capable of nurturing.
It takes patience, too. If the garden is to thrive you must commit yourself to it for years, for the creation of a garden takes place over time. Like a child, a garden has needs that have to be met, whether we feel like it or not, day after day.
You have to have confidence. You have to take charge and be responsible. You have to act upon the garden.
And you have to let it act upon you. Because it will act upon you. And will knit you together with the rest of the world. It will not let you stand apart.
The challenge is hard, but it is irresistible. To get dirty, to get involved. To act and be acted upon. That is life. If we stop accepting that challenge, we stop living. ~ Simone Martel
Take Charge quotes by Simone Martel
Aside from helping people with their homework, or anything else they needed, she really didn't know how to meet people. She didn't feel like she was a shy person. She thought of herself as a take-charge sort of girl. And yet, somehow, if there wasn't some request along the lines of "I can't remember how to do long division" then it was just too awkward to go up to someone and say ... what? She'd never been able to figure out what. And there didn't seem to be a standard information sheet, which was ridiculous. The whole business of meeting people had never seemed sensible to her. Why did she have to take all the responsibility herself when there were two people involved? Why didn't adults ever help? She wished some other girl would just walk up to her and say, "Hermione, the teacher told me to be friends with you". ~ Eliezer Yudkowsky
Take Charge quotes by Eliezer Yudkowsky
Five thousand dollars? For a kiss?"

"That's what I said."

"With tongue?"

"It's not really a kiss without it.
Just say yes, pet. You obviously need the money."

I gasp before I can stop myself. I didn't think five words from a stranger could hurt so much. What a dick.

"For fuck's sake, Nicholas," Simon says.

But he just looks at me, waiting, those arrogant green eyes alight with anticipation. So I give him what he's waiting for.

"Hands under the table," I order.

He smiles wider, puts his flask in his pocket, and does what he's told.

"Close your eyes."

"I like a woman who's not afraid to take charge."

"No more talking." He's said more than enough.

I lean in, keeping my eyes open the whole time, memorizing every angle of that face, feeling his warm breath against my cheek. This close, I can see the shadow of stubble on his chin and for just a second, I let myself wonder what it would feel like scratching against my stomach, my thighs - everywhere.

Then in one move, I pick up his plate - and smash the apple pie in his stupid, handsome face.

"Kiss this, asshole. ~ Emma Chase
Take Charge quotes by Emma Chase
There are no makeovers in my books. The ugly duckling does not become a beautiful swan. She becomes a confident duck able to take charge of her own life and problems. ~ Maeve Binchy
Take Charge quotes by Maeve Binchy
In a family it is normal to take charge of those who need help. Do not be afraid of frailty! ~ Pope Francis
Take Charge quotes by Pope Francis
None of my mental activities for the past twenty-four hours might be called thinking. I had allowed my body to take charge. It knew far more about escaping and healing than I did. ~ Geoffrey Household
Take Charge quotes by Geoffrey Household
The police are there to do the job, not to think about it,' was the line used by critics, the harshest of which were often other police. But police officers see and hear at first hand the things that ail a society, and along the way they gain trememdous insight into how to fix problems or processes, even if they can't change people's behaviours or attitudes. With the right systems and resources, their personal capacity for creating a safer society is far more powerful than the guns they carry. This would be the thinking driving my direction when I later came to Victoria to take charge of its police force. ~ Christine Nixon
Take Charge quotes by Christine Nixon
Kaori didn't want to admit it, but she liked having Gen as her second-in-command, which meant she was always first-in-command, which meant she needed to be in charge. But Just Renee seemed to be a natural take-charge person--she was leading the way, even though she had no idea what they were supposed to be looking for. Kaori would bet money she was a Leo. ~ Erin Entrada Kelly
Take Charge quotes by Erin Entrada Kelly
If you believe the world will be a better place because you have both the desire and the means to take charge, that's the time for you to jump in. It doesn't matter if you rise up to take the lead only once or twice in your entire working life or if you do it daily. There are so many moments when you can make a difference--by enriching an outcome, saving a great idea, defending the beleaguered or downtrodden, and not least, expressing your own gifts and wisdom. ~ Charlotte Beers
Take Charge quotes by Charlotte Beers
I am too intelligent, too demanding, and too resourceful for anyone to be able to take charge of me entirely. No one knows me or loves me completely. I have only myself ~ Simone De Beauvoir
Take Charge quotes by Simone De Beauvoir
We can let circumstances rule us, or we can take charge and rule our lives from within. ~ Earl Nightingale
Take Charge quotes by Earl Nightingale
Truth be told, I sort of liked his demanding, take charge side. I knew it was a part of him when we met, but it normally didn't present itself in angry glares and hickeys. ~ Elisa Archer
Take Charge quotes by Elisa Archer
You may feel powerless as a child, but the world will one day be yours. And you're responsible for it. So, seize the day and take charge of it. ~ Harvey Fierstein
Take Charge quotes by Harvey Fierstein
The truth that you are in charge of your life will set you free only after it really irritates you. ~ Sky St. John
Take Charge quotes by Sky St. John
It seems so impossible to believe that your best time in life exists at no other time and in no other place than the present. But this is another vital part of your strategy that you must have in order to rebuild a better life: You must let go of what's happened, forget about what could happen, and take charge of your present. There is only one moment in which you can experience anything, and that moment is "now," so don't throw away your time by dwelling on past or future experiences, by living in moments other than the current ones. ~ Art E. Berg
Take Charge quotes by Art E. Berg
So enjoy the exhilaration when it comes. Take the ride to the heights when you get the opportunity. But don't get hooked on the thrill of the moment. Take charge of your emotions. And when it comes time to do the right thing, don't let your feelings lead you to compromise. That is the way to live a happier, more successful life and one that is more pleasing to God. ~ James C. Dobson
Take Charge quotes by James C. Dobson
I've found that often the quality you see in successful people is knowing when to take the initiative, and being quick about it. I've never sat around, waiting for someone to tell me to take charge. I just do it. ~ R.K. Lilley
Take Charge quotes by R.K. Lilley
One reason why I recommend the abandonment of religious beliefs is because I think those beliefs are wrong. There is no evidence that our world was created by divine intention, that a god intercedes in human affairs, or that there is life after death. Religion is a hangover from humankind's timorous infancy; it's time for us to walk upright and unafraid, and to take charge of our own lives. ~ Simon LeVay
Take Charge quotes by Simon LeVay
Try to go a whole seven days without having to control everything, without stressing when things don't work out as you thought they would or should. As you do this, any time you feel the need to take charge, try to relax out of it, just to see what happens. Look for the good that happened precisely because things didn't work out the way you thought they would or should.

And take your time. There really is no desperate hurry. When we constantly pursue perfection, our life speeds up. We make hasty decisions and snap judgments. Wabi sabi offers an opportunity to pause, reflect, check in with yourself and move from there. You'll likely feel relived, and make better choices. ~ Beth Kempton
Take Charge quotes by Beth Kempton
[I]f you continue to rely on others for that security, you will never find it. You're a Prime, a woman, and a mother. Make yourself secure. Take charge of yourself. My circlework my be shaky and crooked, by it's mine. I taught myself how to do it by studying books and now I'm using it. I didn't ask Rogan to draw it for me, because I didn't have to. ~ Ilona Andrews
Take Charge quotes by Ilona Andrews
It's really better if you let God take charge. I find that when I try to be in control, I lose control. ~ Tracie Peterson
Take Charge quotes by Tracie Peterson
After a plane or train crash, the National Transportation Safety Board dispatches its experts within two hours. The investigators in their familiar jackets take charge of the scene, secure evidence, follow leads. ~ Bill Dedman
Take Charge quotes by Bill Dedman
Take Charge and Move Out (TACAMO) planes would quickly get off the ground, climb steeply, and send an emergency war order on a very-low-frequency radio, using an antenna five miles long. SAC began to develop a Post Attack Command and Control System. It would rely on airborne command posts, a command post on a train, a command post at the bottom of an abandoned gold mine in Cripple Creek, Colorado, and a command post, known as The Notch, inside Bare Mountain, near Amherst, Massachusetts. The ~ Eric Schlosser
Take Charge quotes by Eric Schlosser
November 11, 2018 ...(2+0+1+8= 11)

11:11:11

When you see 11:11, it is a spiritual message to remind you that you are the creator of your own reality and you need to take responsibility for it. Your current situation is the result of your past thoughts and actions. By taking a proactive approach, you can become aware of what you think, what you say, and what you do in order to completely take charge of your life. ~ Kianu Starr
Take Charge quotes by Kianu Starr
You're gonna have to learn to get out there in front of those cameras and hold your head up. Take charge when you're singing. ~ Patsy Cline
Take Charge quotes by Patsy Cline
Africans ... their tired. They're tired of being the subject of everybody's charity and care. We are grateful, but we know that we can take charge of our own destinies if we have the will to reform. ~ Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala
Take Charge quotes by Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala
You get comfortable, even when you're unhappy, don't you think? Sometimes, it's really hard to take charge of your own unhappiness ~ Cat Porter
Take Charge quotes by Cat Porter
Your journey is completely yours. It is unique. Others may try to steal part of it, tell it in their words or shape it to suit them. Reality is no one can live it or own it but you. Take charge of your journey, it's yours and yours alone! ~ Kemi Sogunle
Take Charge quotes by Kemi Sogunle
She reflects on the girl she had been in this place, and the things she had to do in order to survive. For a long time, she'd had to live her child- hood backward, forced to step up and take charge of things that were thrust into her hands. ~ Susan Wiggs
Take Charge quotes by Susan Wiggs
When institutions are endowed to train women for all departments connected with the family state, domestic labor, now so shunned and disgraced, will become honorable, will gain liberal compensation, and will enable every woman to secure an independence in employments suited to her sex. And when this is attained, there will be few or none who wish to enter the professions of men or take charge of civil government. ~ Catharine Beecher
Take Charge quotes by Catharine Beecher
Make your book of life a musical. Never abandon obligations, but have fun leaving behind a colorful legacy. Never allow anybody to be the composer of your own destiny. Take control of your life, and don't allow limitations implanted by society tell you how your music is supposed to sound - or how your book is supposed to be written. ~ Suzy Kassem
Take Charge quotes by Suzy Kassem
Start shaping your own day. Start walking your own walk. This journey is yours, take charge of it. Stop giving other people the power to shape your life. ~ Steve Maraboli
Take Charge quotes by Steve Maraboli
When placed in command, take charge. ~ Norman Schwarzkopf
Take Charge quotes by Norman Schwarzkopf
I do not believe that there is any secret or single formula for success, but there are common threads of thought and action that characterize the successful people that I have been fortunate enough to know and observe. I do know, from my own experience, that our chance of succeeding is much greater when we organize and take charge of our lives. When we are willing to make decisions, we aggressively pursue those things in life that are important to us. ~ Merlin Olsen
Take Charge quotes by Merlin Olsen
At a time when the current and two former US presidents have admittedly indulged, as have politicians of all stripes from Al Gore to Newt Gingrich and Sarah Palin and over 50% of the adult US population, the credibility tipping point of the War on Drugs propaganda has long been passed. All that appears to be missing is the political courage to admit failure and move on to more realistic and efficient policies. What will it take for decision makers to display the wisdom and garner the courage to end the disastrous War on Drugs and responsibly take charge of drug production and trade instead of leaving it in the hands of extremely dangerous and powerful international criminal organizations? ~ Jeffrey Dhywood
Take Charge quotes by Jeffrey Dhywood
Reproductive freedom is critical to a whole range of issues. If we can't take charge of this most personal aspect of our lives, we can't take care of anything. It should not be seen as a privilege or as a benefit, but a fundamental human right. ~ Faye Wattleton
Take Charge quotes by Faye Wattleton
The thing about film-making is I give it everything, that's why I work so hard. I always tell young actors to take charge. It's not that hard. Sign your own cheques, be responsible. ~ Tom Cruise
Take Charge quotes by Tom Cruise
Take charge of your mind and begin to fill it with
healthy, positive, and courageous thoughts. ~ Norman Vincent Peale
Take Charge quotes by Norman Vincent Peale
As a woman, you are always empowering others and helping people out of their situations. The time has come, and the time is now, for you to take charge of your own journey. It doesn't matter how young or how old you are. It is time for you to freefall into giving yourself a chance at love, and the first person you should fall in love with is yourself. ~ Charlena E. Jackson
Take Charge quotes by Charlena E.  Jackson
I didn't know until I licked the mocha buttercream from my third devil's food cupcake that this was the flavor of starting over- dark chocolate with that take-charge undercurrent of coffee.
I could actually taste it, feel it. And now I craved it. ~ Judith Fertig
Take Charge quotes by Judith Fertig
When it gets complicated, that's usually because the world is complicated - or because we're complicated. When we shy away from it because it seems too difficult (or because we've been taught so poorly), we surrender the ability to take charge of our future. We are disenfranchised. Our self-confidence erodes. ~ Carl Sagan
Take Charge quotes by Carl Sagan
With every step I expected a poltergeist to sail down from the ceiling and take charge of my body or find a zombie hunkered in a corner eating Jerry's flesh. ~ Elle Klass
Take Charge quotes by Elle Klass
I figured out that there are occasions where you have to get pumped up and take charge, situations where you have to have fun and situations where you need to settle down. ~ Chase Utley
Take Charge quotes by Chase Utley
My biggest Buff Orpinton rooster is on the small corral fence letting the world know he is in charge, all puffed up and sassy. There is nothing more silly than a rooster taking over the world, but every day he things he can. I wonder if we are just a little part of the world, like that rooster, and that the real things go on around us while we strut in our own yards trying to take charge of things. ~ Nancy E. Turner
Take Charge quotes by Nancy E. Turner
What if I say that in my view about the least Christian thing you could do is what the Republican party are trying to doing again now, which is try to take charge of the richest country in the world and then deny the people of that country free access to free healthcare and free education and start more wars. ~ Robert Montgomery
Take Charge quotes by Robert Montgomery
Lose control, baby. Just for a weekend. Let me take charge. I'll take good care of you, I promise. ~ Mia Sheridan
Take Charge quotes by Mia Sheridan
Take charge of your thoughts. You can do what you will with them ~ Plato
Take Charge quotes by Plato
Not at all; I rather like it when you take charge."
"You do?"
"Of course; just as long as you only do it when I let you," he clarified, giving me his wicked grin. ~ Andrea Smith
Take Charge quotes by Andrea  Smith
There are only three kinds of people. LEADERS. Those who take charge, build, inspire, and create. FOLLOWERS. Those who support leaders and work to achieve mutually beneficial goals ... [and] DESTROYERS. Destroyers cannot find it within themselves to follow anyone, their hatred and insecurity is too pure to see strength in any OTHER being. The utterly lack the ability to inspire or create, so they do the only thing left to them
they tear down all they come in contact with. ~ Rick Remender
Take Charge quotes by Rick Remender
When you can truly understand how others experience your behavior, without defending or judging, you then have the ability to produce a breakthrough in your leadership and team. Everything starts with your self-awareness. You cannot take charge without taking accountability, and you cannot take accountability without understanding how you avoid it. ~ Loretta Malandro
Take Charge quotes by Loretta Malandro
Be stimulated to become significant. This might be your back-slap moment. New-born babies born with weak signs of life are given a slap on the back to "stimulate" them. It is a knock to wake them up to the reality that they must now take charge. In this world, they have to do their own breathing and their own eating otherwise they will not survive. It's the same in your adulthood and your quest for success, you must take charge because no one will wake up every day to do things for you and make a success out of a life of excuses and laziness. ~ Archibald Marwizi
Take Charge quotes by Archibald Marwizi
Novels do take charge of the writer, and the writer is basically a kind of sheepdog just trying to keep things on track. ~ John Gregory Dunne
Take Charge quotes by John Gregory Dunne
Today's Darwinists will tell you that the task of humanity is to take charge of evolution. But 'humanity' is only a name for a ragtag animal with no capacity to take charge of anything. By destabilizing the climate, it is making the planet less hospitable to human life. By developing new technologies of mass communication and warfare, it has set in motion processes of evolution that may end up displacing it. ~ John N. Gray
Take Charge quotes by John N. Gray
Who, then, will govern? The answer must be, Man - for we have no angels in the shape of men, as yet, who are willing to take charge of our political affairs. ~ Andrew Johnson
Take Charge quotes by Andrew Johnson
Dear Black Women… Save, Invest, and Spend Less. Save because you just never know what will come up. This will save you from having to borrow from friends, family, or going to get a payday loan. Invest so that you'll have something of value to show for. Investing also helps in building WEALTH. Spend less so that you're not broke, living paycheck to paycheck, and/or in a lot of debt. Don't allow money to control you. Take charge! Keep, and/or get your finances in order. Value your money and be mindful of how and what you're spending. ~ Stephanie Lahart
Take Charge quotes by Stephanie Lahart
I rather like it when you take charge."
"You do?"
"Of course; just as long as you only do it when I let you ~ Andrea Smith
Take Charge quotes by Andrea Smith
In my heart, I am American, and I believe I have a free will and can take charge of my own destiny. ~ Ruth Ozeki
Take Charge quotes by Ruth Ozeki
ONE WHO WRAPS HIMSELF

God called the Prophet Muhammad Muzzammil,
"The One Who Wraps Himself,"

and said,
"Come out from under your cloak, you so fond
of hiding and running away.

Don't cover your face.
The world is a reeling, drunken body, and you are its intelligent head.

Don't hide the candle
of your clarity. Stand up and burn
through the night, my prince.

Without your light
a great lion is held captive by a rabbit!

Be the captain of the ship,
Mustafa, my chosen one,
my expert guide.

Look how the caravan of civilization
has been ambushed.
Fools are everywhere in charge.
Do not practice solitude like Jesus. Be in the assembly,
and take charge of it.

As the bearded griffin, the Humay, lives on Mt. Qaf because he's native to it,
so you should live most naturally out in public
and be a communal teacher of souls. ~ Jalaluddin Rumi
Take Charge quotes by Jalaluddin Rumi
If your characters write your story, rather than you writing your characters, it's like your dog taking YOU for a walk. Don't let them control you. Take charge and train them to listen to their master. ~ Jessica Bell
Take Charge quotes by Jessica Bell
Baghdad fell on April 9, 2003, Hussein and his regime were brought down, we declared "Mission Accomplished" and celebrated victory ... and chaos erupted. We did not assert control and authority over the country, especially Baghdad. We did not bring with us the capacity to impose our will. We did not take charge. And Iraq did not in a few weeks magically transform itself into a stable nation with democratic leaders. Instead a raging insurgency engulfed the country. ~ Colin Powell
Take Charge quotes by Colin Powell
When you meditate, you take charge of your life. You bring your conscious awareness to a new high point, where the vista is beyond any horizon. ~ Frederick Lenz
Take Charge quotes by Frederick Lenz
Take Charge
'Grab a bull by the horns' is shitty advice
that will only lead to being gored
and a lengthy hospitalization. ~ Beryl Dov
Take Charge quotes by Beryl Dov
Men often think submission indicates weakness, that letting someone else take charge betrays a character deficit. But we all submit to strangers who drill into our teeth as long as we can see the parchment on their wall which reads Dentist. ~ Edmond Manning
Take Charge quotes by Edmond Manning
Gonzo stares after the Rolls-Royce. He has heroismus interruptus. He was ready, right then, to coordinate four or five hundred terrified civvies, lay down his life, kill for them, make a legend of disinterested soldiering. It's not that he resents what has happened, but he's having trouble changing gear. He was expecting to take charge. Instead he is struggling to keep up with a sexagenarian Mystery Man with an Errol Flynn grin who commands a legion of pirate-monk rally drivers and sweeps formidable older women from their feet in a could of cologne and Asian-Monarchic style. ~ Nick Harkaway
Take Charge quotes by Nick Harkaway
I had, toward the last, been shut off from all visitors, and so when the lawyer, Peter A. Hendricks, came and told me that friends of mine were willing to take charge of me if I would rather be with them than in the asylum, I was only too glad to give my consent. ~ Nellie Bly
Take Charge quotes by Nellie Bly
Money should not dictate how I live my life..
I must take charge and become the master of money, so that I decide what I want to do with my time. ~ Manoj Arora
Take Charge quotes by Manoj Arora
If he wouldn't take charge of this, she would. "Take off your clothes. ~ Savannah Stuart
Take Charge quotes by Savannah Stuart
Was he curious about her?
That was putting it mildly. He was curious about the noises she might make if he kissed her properly and the colour of her nipples and what she tasted like between her legs and the extent of her tattoo and how she'd sounded as she came. He was curious about where she liked to be touched and whether she'd let him take charge and if she liked giving head. He was curious about the long curve of her spine and the dip of her hip and how she'd looked straddled atop of him, her hair loose, her breasts bouncing as he pushed her over the edge.
Or curled up beside him in bed, naked, her body branded by his. ~ Amy Andrews
Take Charge quotes by Amy Andrews
Isn't it odd that in most societies in the world today, women generally cannot propose marriage? Marriage is such a major step in your life, and yet you cannot take charge of it; it depends on a man asking you. ~ Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
Take Charge quotes by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
There is a certain terror that goes along with saying "My life is up to me." It is scary to realize there's no magic, you can't just wait around, no one can really rescue you, and you have to do something. Not knowing what you want to do with your life - or not at least having some ideas about what to do next - is a defense against that terror. It is a resistance to admitting that the possibilities are not endless. It is a way of pretending that now doesn't matter. Being confused about choices is nothing more than hoping that maybe there is a way to get through life without taking charge. Rather than take charge, ~ Meg Jay
Take Charge quotes by Meg Jay
I'm not averse to being tied up in silk scarves. I like a man to take charge. There's something very sexy about being submissive. ~ Eva Longoria
Take Charge quotes by Eva Longoria
Second by second you lose the opportunity to become the person you want to be. Take charge of your life. ~ Greg Plitt
Take Charge quotes by Greg Plitt
Too many people base their worth and value on what other people think of them. They worry if others like them, approve of them, or think of them as important. Because of such insecurities, they are constantly playing up to others, trying to win their favor and to meet others' every expectation.
When you do that, you set yourself up to be controlled and manipulated. You allow others to put you in a box. Some people do not follow their dreams because they are so concerned about falling from the good grace of others. You may lose the approval of others if you follow your own dreams. But if your friends approve of you only when you meet their expectations, they aren't true friends. They are manipulators. They are controllers.
There is a real freedom when you realize you don't need the approval of others. You have almighty God's approval. Don't try to keep everyone around you happy. Some people don't even want to be happy. You've got to be secure enough to say, "I love you, but I won't allow you to control me. You may not give me your blessing, but that's okay. I have God's blessing. And I'm not a people pleaser; I'm a God pleaser."
Take charge of your life. If you're being manipulated and pressured into being someone you are not, it's not the other person's fault, it's your own fault. You control your destiny. You can be nice. You can be respectful. But do not allow anyone to make you feel guilty for being your own person.
Life is too short to spend it trying ~ Joel Osteen
Take Charge quotes by Joel Osteen
Unless the people, through unified action, arise and take charge of their government, they will find that their government has taken charge of them. Independence and liberty will be gone, and the general public will find itself in a condition of servitude to an aggregation of organized and selfish interest. ~ Calvin Coolidge
Take Charge quotes by Calvin Coolidge
Your identity, self-esteem, and awareness of your ego lay the groundwork for your life. How you conduct yourself with others, and whether you have the strength to make your way without needing to ask for another's permission, depends on how well you succeed at the many challenges that awaken your need to take charge of who you are. ~ Caroline Myss
Take Charge quotes by Caroline Myss
No one can express who you are and what you stand for more than you do. Don't leave that to chance or others. If you do so, the likelihood of other people misgauging you is high. Take charge! ~ Assegid Habtewold Habtewold
Take Charge quotes by Assegid Habtewold Habtewold
My husband is a natural-born leader. I quickly learned that I had to find a way of honoring his take-charge personality and not get frustrated about his desire to have the final decision on just about everything. I am not a passive person, but I chose to fall into a more submissive role in our relationship because I wanted to do everything in my power to make my marriage and family work. ~ Candace Cameron
Take Charge quotes by Candace Cameron
"Sabbath is not primarily about us or how it benefits us; it is about God, and how God forms us. It is not, in the first place, about what we do or don't do; it is about God - completing and resting and blessing and sanctifying. These are all things that we don't know much about ... But it does mean stopping and being quiet long enough to see - open-mouthed - with wonder - resurrection wonder ... we cultivate the "fear of the Lord". Our souls are formed by what we cannot work up or take charge of. We respond and enter into what the resurrection of Jesus continues to do." ~ Eugene H. Peterson
Take Charge quotes by Eugene H. Peterson
When we let go of our reactions and detach from other people's moods, actions, and words, we take back our power. Instead of reactors, we become self-determined actors in our lives. We take charge of ourselves and decide how we act in that moment and every moment, skyrocketing our self-esteem ~ Darlene Lancer
Take Charge quotes by Darlene Lancer
As for wife beating, one survey found support for it from 62 percent of Indian village women themselves. And no group systematically abuses young women more cruelly than mothers-in-law, who serve as household matriarchs in much of the world and take charge of disciplining the younger women. ~ Nicholas D. Kristof

Take Charge quotes by Steven Pressfield
You are the driver of your mind, so take charge and keep it busy with your instructions by telling it where you want it to go. Your mind only takes off on its own if you are not telling it what to do. ~ Rhonda Byrne
Take Charge quotes by Rhonda Byrne
We're strong, Cole. You just have to stop believing that all your strengths are wrong. Fight back. Stop waiting. Stop looking for someone else to save us. We're enough, right now, just as we are. ~ K.A. Wiggins
Take Charge quotes by K.A. Wiggins
There is a spirit greater than you, always within reach of you, but he only comes to take charge when your own spirit is lost, and cries out in his own tongue, which you cannot know but only feel, and it is in feeling that you will have orders. Yet not even in feeling, for I felt nothing, only surprise that I was going forward. ~ Richard Llewellyn
Take Charge quotes by Richard Llewellyn

How to be Like RBG:
Work for what you believe in, but pick your battles, and don't burn your bridges. Don't be afraid to take charge, think about what you want, then do the work, but then enjoy what makes you happy, bring along your crew, have a sense of humor.

Take Charge quotes by Ruth Bader Ginsburg
Who else, when we stepped to the line in Torino, was going to be so mentally tough? Who else would have proven to himself that he could do anything he set out to do? In a sport that was always one tick away from being entirely out of control, who else would have done everything he could to take charge of the things he could-and should- control to put himself in position to excel? ~ Apolo Ohno

Take Charge quotes by Gordon B. Hinckley
God has to work in the soul in secret and in darkness because if we fully knew what was happening, and what Mystery, transformation, God and Grace will eventually ask of us, we would either try to take charge or stop the whole process. ~ San Juan De La Cruz
