“The single greatest thing you can do to win the trust of those around you is to tell the truth, whether it puts you in a good light or a bad light.” – Simon Sinek
“Take responsibility for your actions at the time you perform your actions, not at the time you get caught. Tell the truth, good or bad.” – Simon Sinek
Your life is valuable. It is the greatest asset you own. It holds potential for great things. Don’t let it slip into mediocrity by choosing to live it just like everyone else.
You either teach people to treat you with dignity and respect, or you don’t. You shape others’ behaviour when you teach them what they can get away with and what they cannot.
Stop asking why they keep doing it and start asking why you keep allowing it. Take responsibility for how you allow others to treat you.
The overwhelming feelings you can experience as a teenager can either get easier as you get older, or you learn to control and deal with them better.
Don’t dismiss childrens’ feelings. Listen to them and support them; be open and honest. You’ll be able to discuss feelings, and they won’t be afraid to speak out about anything that is happening to them.
“Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it.” – Charles R Swindoll
Let go of the comparisons that keep you feeling inferior.
“We have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past, or that people will act in a certain way. But we are in charge of our own attitudes.” – Charles R Swindoll
