Self-help

"Bad habits are like having a sumo wrestler in the back of your canoe rowing the opposite direction."

"When this low self-worth is hidden, one can understand why the person becomes hypersensitive to the opinions of others and has a great deal of difficulty accepting criticism no matter how warranted or gently said."

"I’m creating a self help show called Self Talk. I’ll insult myself for an hour then open phone lines to a fitness coach & my mother-in-law."

"A woman in love with herself is magnetic."

"People build defenses around a weakness, not around strength. Where self-esteem is strong, a defense is unnecessary."

"It is very difficult to develop a proper sense of self-esteem in a dysfunctional family. Having very little self-worth, looking at one’s own character defects becomes so overwhelming there is no room for inward focus. People so afflicted think: “I need to keep you from knowing me. I have already rejected me, but if you knew how flawed I am, you would also reject me…and since this is all I have, I could not stand any more rejection. I am not worthy of someone understanding me so you will not get the chance...so I must judge, reject, attack, and/or find fault with you. I don’t accept me so how can I accept you?"

"There is no one more capable of helping you than yourself."

"Smile: Happiness Is Right Under Your Nose!"

"Each of us have been born with the potential for greatness. We are equals. That doesn't mean we are born into equal circumstances, or have equal skills. What we do have in common, though, is the ability to apply ourselves to achieving that which we desire."

"Stop waiting for creative inspiration. Start creating and inspire yourself along the way."

"A leader helps others to reach their full leadership potential."

"Use the darkness of your past to propel you to a brighter future."

"With strong self-esteem you can climb any mountain and weather any storm."

"What you make of yourself and your future is entirely up to you."

"In most cases, our thoughts about experiences that have happened to us cause greater grief than the events themselves. Understanding it may be difficult and require some effort, but remind yourself as often as you need to, that past and future exist only as stories in our minds."

"May Love, Joy and Abundance Rain on Every Being in the World."

"You have to look in the mirror and do one of two things; love or hate who you see. So, be good to yourself - it's all the esteem you have."

"Through my pain and sorrow, God has prepared me to share His word with others in a way that was made just for me."

"Remember that this is YOUR LIFE, and nothing is more important than YOU."

"My life got happier when I trusted my gut to tell me when to open the door or close the door. There is joy to be found in keeping away from people & situations which could harm my self-respect my peace my worth."
