Your Ability To Love

Your love of yourself (or lack thereof) creates the window through which you view the whole world, and it's inhabitants. If you have a healthy opinion of yourself, you will tend to see the good in others. If however, your love of self is severely lacking, so will your ability to love others be lacking.

Celebrate What You've Accomplished

Celebrate what you've accomplished, but raise the bar a little higher each time you succeed.

Confidence Is A Learn-able Skill

Practice handling criticism from a place of self-confidence instead of insecurity. Even if you’re not a self-confident person, you can borrow that feeling of self-confidence and paste it on to the criticism. Confidence is a learn-able skill, not a personality trait.

Obstacles In Your Path

See all obstacles in your path from a new perspective, a new mindset. Instead of seeing them as a stop sign, see them as an opportunity to show how badly you want something.

Resistance To Change

Sometimes, no matter how positive or encouraging your advice is, people aren’t ready to hear it. Accept this and don’t see someone’s resistance to change as a reflection on you.

Miscommunication

Realize that everyone is acting from their own reality, and that their assumptions might not match up with yours. This is the root of most miscommunications, and knowing it gives you the ability to fix things when they go wrong.

Who Can Solve Our Problems

We are the only ones who can solve our own problems. We are the only ones who can change ourselves. We are the only ones who can choose to see the good, to see the hope, to pick ourselves up, and to accept help. We must rely upon and trust ourselves.
