To Criticize Others

Self-respect means that you consider it inappropriate to criticize others. You consider it cowardly to feel threatened by someone else. You view everyone as responsible for their own behavior.

Critical People

The natural reaction of critical people is to criticize, not praise. So if you talk to them about something in hopes they will respond in enthusiasm and encouragement, stop doing it. You have seen their critical behavior in action before, so it shouldn’t surprise you if they continue to dish out criticisms at what you say.

Every Piece of Energy

Who you meet has a bearing on who you ultimately become. Who you become has a bearing on your behavior and reputation. It is your reputation you must guard with every piece of energy you have in your life.

Life's Two Most Important Questions

Life’s two most important questions are "Why?" and "Why not?" The trick is knowing which one to ask. Understanding why we do certain things is the first step to change. Until we understand what motivates us, what we get from doing a particular behavior, there is no momentum to begin the change process. Likewise, by asking "Why not?" we begin assessing the risk versus reward aspect which can lead to bringing about productive change in our lives.

Accept in Life

If you don't set a baseline standard for what you'll accept in life, you'll find it's easy to slip into behaviors and attitudes or a quality of life that's far below what you deserve.


Tony Robbins
