List some of your most important learning experiences and recognise that without those so called 'mistakes' you wouldn't be the terrific person you are today!

To change, you actually have to CHANGE!

Remember, EMERGE OUT OF EMERGENCY.
Refuse to do what you have always done!

- List your negative affirmations (negative beliefs/ worries). Then turn your negative affirmations into positive ones!
This is programming your subconscious mind for positivity!
- Make up 10 positive affirmations!
- Write a list of what you appreciate about yourselfl STOP PUTTING YOURSELF DOWN! Pat yourself on the shoulder!
- Close your eyes, and see pictures of people you love! Have you included yourself?
- How do you treat somebody you don't like? Badly? That's how you treat yourself, if you don't love yourself! Please change, there is only one of you!
- Change from win/lose to win/win, in yourself and towards others.
There is no need to argue, there is no right and wrong.
Find a resolution not a compromise, a compromise is a lose / lose situation.!
- If you are willing to change, change now and new things will happen. To change means to take a risk, to take a step into the darkness. You don't know what will be around the corner. The only way to find out is to go there. It may feel safer to stay tight, but it means you are stuck.
Allowing yourself to make mistakes, means allowing yourself to learn and expand.
