An Act of Self Love

It is an act of self love to refuse to see anyone who you know will break your heart.  It is an act of self love to not knowingly allow anyone into your life who does not consider your needs and desires to be important to them.  It is an act of self love to allow only people into your life who have your best interest at heart and will treat you will love and respect.

Otherwise, you have to think seriously about letting them go for you do not want to spend your life surrounded by people who cannot love you because they don’t have their own self love.

The Resolve Has to Come From Within

“I don’t want people to feel sorry for me because of what I went through as a child.  That serves no purpose and it would not make me feel good.  Instead, I hope people will admire me and use my resolve as a role model for what I was determined to overcome. The resolve has to come from within, and I chose to use it to benefit me instead of inhibit me. I want people to know that my difficult past shaped my wonderful future to be what it is today. I want people to know that I came out the other end a better person”

This is ME…Like it or Not…

Some days you just have to go against what everyone else is doing, do what is in your heart, be yourself and do what you want.  You tell the world…”This is ME, like it or not”

“When it seems that everything you do is wrong and everyone is against you, it is the most opportune time to wear your I-don’t-give-a-damn tutu and glide gleefully on the dance floor of “this is my life”

Our Deepest Fear

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.  Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.  It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us.  We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?  Actually who are we not to be? When we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others” Marianne Williamson

What’s Important is My Opinion

” Life is too short to waste any amount of time on wondering what other people think about you. In the first place, if they had better things going on in their lives, they wouldn’t have the time to sit around and talk about you. What’s important to me is not others’ opinions of me, but what’s important to me is my opinion of myself”

Beautiful People do not Just Happen

“The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.”
Dr.Elisabeth Kübler-Ross

Decisions Shape Our Destiny

The decisions you make shape your destiny.  Decision is actually 80% of the equation and action is 20%. Your mind is your computer and determines those decisions. Therefore, clarity, purpose and attitude make all the difference. But because most people are stuck in lack of confidence, they don’t see how amazing they are.  They pay more attention to distractions than dedication and dreams.  However, all people have the same potential. What determines their destiny is what they do with their potential.

Someting to Always Remember

You’ll never get something in your life unless you believe you deserve it.  You have to believe in yourself, your worth, your value.  Dr. Phil

First Love Yourself

“You cannot be any good for anyone else until you are first good to yourself.  I also think it is impossible to really love anyone else unless you first love yourself.  How can you give another person your best if you do not believe you have anything wonderful to offer”

Larry Winget
