Be Free With Your Praise
Be free with your praise, and watch people grow. Praise them not only
for their achievements, but also for their behavior.
Learn More From Failure
Reminding yourself you learn more from failure than success is a good way to reassure yourself after a disappointment. It is true, that when something doesn't work out well for you, you ultimately learn from you r mistakes better than you ever would otherwise. Reminding yourself to always embrace failures as a learning experience is an important life lesson.
Our Ultimate Possessions
Material possessions are fine and well, but our ultimate possessions are
our minds and hearts – something no-one can take away from us, and that is why
we should feed both, opening our minds to positive thoughts and our hearts to
love.
Self-Command
No one can make you feel inferior without your consent. In fact, no one can make you feel ANYTHING without your consent. What mattered was not what happens to you, but how you handle it. Self-Command is required . . . because for the most part, the self is the only thing that we can command, we have no control, ultimately, over what other people do or think. What we can influence is our understanding of these circumstances and how we respond to them.

See The Faults
If you see yourself as a caring, competent, confident person, you are on
your way to being one. If you only see the faults you have they will plague
your mind and prevent you from moving forward.
Friendship or Love
Friendship or Love . . . it’s really hard to choose, though sometimes friendship ends in love. If romance ends, it’s hard to return to friendship.
Living Your Life Right Now
Surround yourself with positive messages, and be thankful for the moment
– whatever that moment may bring. Keep your goals in mind but do not let them
detract from living your life right now, right here, with gratitude for all the
smiles, surprises, insights, memories, challenges, and opportunities that make
your life yours. No one else can live your life and no one else has the chance
to be you. Embrace the ride and be thankful for everything that comes with it.

Never Let Anyone Tell You Otherwise
Beautiful is who you are, powerful is what you’ve become and loving is
what you are. Never let anyone tell you otherwise.
After All The Heartbreak
The fact that you can still smile after all the heartbreak
that you’ve been through shows how strong you are.
Forgiving Someone For Hurting You
Forgiving someone for hurting you does not mean
you are weak. It simply means you are wise enough to know when to move on and
not invest the time and energy in something that doesn't benefit you.
You're Not Boring, Nerdy or Weird
Don’t let them get inside your head. You’re not boring, nerdy or weird. You’re complex, creative and far too intelligent for their small words. And for the record, you are also infinitely more attractive than you give yourself credit for.

Make A Real Decision
You must make change a must. I knew that I wanted
to change my life for the longest time. I knew I was unhappy, unsatisfied, and
unfulfilled. I knew I didn’t have freedom. Not real freedom. The problem was
that I knew these things intellectually
but not emotionally.
I didn’t have the feeling in my gut that things must change. I knew they should change, but the change wasn’t a must for me, and thus it didn’t happen.
Anthony Robbins has a good aphorism to describe all these shoulds in your life: he says “after a while
you end up shoulding all over yourself.” But once you understand these things
on an emotional level you are able to turn your shoulds into musts. I believe that that is the
pivotal point, that is when you get leverage, that is when you are compelled to
take action. Thus, a decision is not a real decision until it is a must for you, until you feel it on your
nerve-endings, until you are compelled to take action. Once your shoulds have turned into musts, then you have made a real decision.
The Best Medicine
Time heals almost every pain you can feel. But it’s also the hardest medicine to take. There is always a medicine for every pain you feel. But sometimes you just have to give it time to cure your pain. It’s true that there are some pains time can’t heal like emotional wounds. Because if you ignore it, your mind will just suppress the pain. But this pain will visit you again sooner or later. But still time is the best medicine for almost all the pain.
Do You Expect To Fall In Love
You must have a strong relationship with yourself
before you connect yourself with others. You must love yourself more than you
want someone to love you. Love yourself the way you are. Accept yourself and
believe that you are perfectly suitable to be loved by someone. If you are
confident about yourself, only then you can look into other eyes confidently.
When you don’t need someone’s approval to feel good about yourself, you can
live your best life. How do you expect to fall in love with someone if you
haven’t even fallen in love with yourself?
People Who Deserve Your Silence
Don’t waste words with people who deserve your silence. Sometimes the most powerful thing you can say is nothing at all.

Inner Talk
Be careful of your inner talk. Those words have as much power of
creating your reality as if they were spoken.
Gifts Given
Celebrate smiles, tears, laughter, and sadness . . . they are all gifts given to us. Only we don’t always see them this way.
Be Grateful
Instead of focusing on what you don’t have, be
grateful for the amazing gifts you've been given: of loved ones and simple
pleasures, of health and sight and the gift of music and books, of nature and
beauty and the ability to create, and everything in between.
