1. It is okay to make mistakes. Mistakes and failures are there to teach us. If you learn from them and correct your path, better things will result from it.
2. You create your own reality. You have the power to break mental patterns that no longer serve you and to consciously choose thoughts that empower. It’s only a matter of breaking old habits & creating new ones.
3. Finding validation & seeking love from another person through relationships is a self-destructive path. Those types of relationships never last. And when they end, they burn in heartache. You must love and respect yourself first. When u wholeheartedly love who you are, the world will fall in love with you, and the right relationship will fall into place. Until you fully accept, love and respect yourself, you will continue to attract those relationships rooted in fear, insecurities & disempowerment.
4. Take a few moments every day
A few moments of silence each day will broaden your horizon, strengthen your self-awareness and heighten your inner clarity. With clarity, you can do anything.
5. You will never be ready for what you want to do
The trick is to just start it anyway and to develop the discipline to work at it consistently. Taking bold steps in the direction you want to go means that you will eventually get there.
6. Life is short
Live it the way that will make you happy.
7. Change creates resistance
We don’t like change and we will always gravitate towards what is familiar because familiarity keeps us feeling safe. But sometimes, change is good for us. In fact, change is inevitable. It is the only thing that is certain. Embrace it.
8. Don’t be afraid to dream
Dreams create the vision that governs the story of our lives. Our dreams create our future. Dream big, but remember #6…life is short.
9. Money is a renewable resource
If you lose some money, don’t sweat it. You can always make more. However, if you spend valuable time stressing over money, or lost the opportunity, you’ll never get that time back. Time is more valuable than money.
10. Fear comes from the uncertainty of the unknown
It happens to all of us. It is part of the natural mechanisms for our survival. Its job is to keep us safe. You can never suppress fear, nor ignore fear, nor cure fear. The trick is to fully embrace fear by simply acting despite the feeling of fear. When you’ve fully faced fear and experienced it, the fear will subside.
11. Self-doubt, like fear, seeks everyone.
You are no exception. Just do it anyway.
12. Time
This is the most important resource in the world. It is the only non-renewable resource in your life. Choose wisely how you spend time, and with whom you spend it.
13. Less is more
Say less, listen more. Own fewer things, and you’ll experience more freedom.
14. Your allies
The people with whom you spend time influence you in unconscious ways, both positive and negative. Your income is the average of the three people with whom you spend the most time. Your potential to achieve greatness can be limited by the negative influence of the opinions of the people around you. Similarly, if all your friends were living self-empowered and awesome lives, wouldn’t that rub off on you to live extraordinarily? Choose your friends carefully.
15. We really don’t need very much (stuff) to be happy.
16. Love yourself
This is the most important thing you can do. By making self-love a priority, everyone and everything you care about will be better because of it. You become better parents, employees, lovers, friends and contributing members of society.
17. Learn to let go
Surrender to what is happening right now. Fully embrace and experience this moment, regardless of what this moment holds. Like all moments, this moment too shall pass.
18. People are really kind and helpful if you give them a chance.
Be open to receiving without feeling the need to “pay them back.” Let others know what they’ve provided for you, and how much you appreciate their help. Fully receiving what someone else has to offer is a gift in itself.
19. You are stronger and more resilient than you think we are
20. The most damaging influence in your life is the limiting belief you hold about yourself.
It’s the unexamined limiting beliefs that cause us to sabotage our success, sell ourselves short, and limit our own potential to living extraordinary lives. If you are not achieving the kinds of results you want in your life, sit down with a journal and examine your beliefs.
21. Complaining, criticizing and gossiping is a waste of time and saps your energy.
22. Being a victim is a lot easier than being a leader.
Leaders take responsibility and own up to their part in the doing. Leaders take action to change themselves and overcome setbacks. Victims refuse to take responsibility for their own actions and emotions. Victims would rather sit back passively and give their power away by placing blame on an external trigger. Be the leader of your life. You are the only one capable of the job. Take responsibility for your emotions.
23. Forgiving someone is a lot easier than we think.
When we forgive, we are setting ourselves free. Forgiveness is not about other people; it’s about letting the pain go in our own minds.
24. It is easy to find fault in others–much easier than seeing fault in ourselves.
How we view the world is a reflection of how we view ourselves, and this gives us insight into our internal thought patterns. Next time you catch yourself complaining about some fault in others, ask yourself, “What is it about myself, in relation to this topic, that I don’t like? ”
25. Naps are good.
It’s okay to sleep in, sometimes. We need rest to recharge. Staying up late into the night is bad for our bodies, and we pay the price with our health.
26. There is always a silent and graceful solution to every problem.
When feeling nervous, stressed or anxious, stop everything and take three deep breaths. Or better yet, close your eyes, and focus on your breathing. Try the mantra “I am safe. All is well”
27. Master creations in the arts (writing, drawing, music, dance, even software programming) are the result of someone’s love of the process of creation. Masterpieces are never created as a result of someone trying to be brilliant. Get out of your head and get into your heart. Stop over thinking! Just relax, start creating and fall into the flow. Focus on what you are doing without being concerned with what other people will think. Create for the sake of creation. Create out of love for the process, and you just might find that your resulting creation turns out to be a masterpiece.
28. When you passionately and genuinely believe in something, it will change you.
You will symbolize the energy of your passion, and the world will notice the light that you shine. When you believe in yourself, others will believe in you, too.
29. Learn to say no.
If you don’t want to do something—go to a party, accept an obligation, meet someone—just say “ no, thank you .” You don’t owe anyone an excuse or explanation.
30. Don’t give unsolicited Advice
Giving unsolicited advice to others—regardless of how much you feel that they need it—is a waste of time and energy. Unless your advice was specifically requested, what you say will not be heard or appreciated. Unsolicited advice is perceived as annoying. Don’t do it.
31. Self-reflect
Slowing down to self-reflect, to contemplate, to sit quietly, to journal, to breathe, or to clear your mind will actually make you more productive than if you worked until you collapsed. Slowing down has more benefits than just a clear mind; one side effect is a happier life
32. Always be ready for divine guidance
33. Rely on God.
