Doing More Of What Doesn't Work Doesn't

If We Do Have Realistic Confidence In Our Mind And Value, If We Feel Secure Within Ourselves, We Tend To Experience The World As Open To Us And To Respond Appropriately To Challenges And Opportunities.

No One Is Coming To Save You.

Live With Integrity, Respect The Rights Of Other People, And Follow Your Own Bliss.

If You Overcome Your Fear To Ask Someone For A Date, A Raise, Or Help With A Project, That Is An Act Of Self-assertiveness. You Are Moving Out Into Life Rather Than Contracting And Withdrawing.

It Is Easy Enough To Say, Be True To Your Values. But What If Your Values Are Irrational? Or What If The Virtues You Have Committed Yourself To Are So Much Against Human Nature That They Cannot Be Practiced Consistently? Be Careful Of What You Accept As Your Code Of Morality. Think Carefully About Whether Its Tenets Serve Your Life And Well Being. Exercise Critical Judgment. Realize How Much Is At Stake-your Life, Your Happiness, Your Self-esteem.
