Recognize your strengths |
|
Acknowledge your areas for development |
|
Forgive yourself for past errors and omissions; permanently bury all negative tapes. The past continues to live in your memory only with your permission. |
|
Guilt and shame are destructive to your health and well being - don't indulge! |
|
Eliminate self-abusive words from you vocabulary - "should," "can't ... .. have to" and replace with "want," "will" and "need." |
|
Don't accept others' criticism of you as a person; only your behaviours are up for evaluation. |
|
Don't tolerate situations that make you feel inadequate - if you cannot change them, change your reactions to them - if that doesn't work, remove yourself. Life is too short to waste on negatives. |
|
Keep in touch with yourself. Take the time to relax, to meditate, to listen to yourself, to enjoy activities you are able to do on your own. |
|
You are not an object to which bad things happen. You are the culmination of millions of years of evolution of our species. You're a person who is able to make things happen. You are able to change the direction of your entire life anytime you decide to do so. With confidence in yourself, obstacles turn into challenges and challenges into accomplishments. |
