If old memories still make you cry

If old memories still make you cry, write them down carefully and completely. If you're obsessed with memories of the past (most of them negative), there are a lot of you stuck in the past. Many people have parts of them that are stuck in some traumatic experience. The world presents itself as a series of puzzles. Some of which you’re capable of solving and some of which you’re not. If you want to change the world, you start with yourself and work outward.

Listen to them hard enough so that they will share it with you. The sympathetic responses during a genuine conversation indicate that the teller is valued and that the story being told is important, serious, deserving of consideration, and understandable.

Do not do things that you hate

Watch yourself. If you see that you’re doing things that make you hate yourself, consider the cost of continuing.

When someone is giving you feedback, they’re doing you a favor. Even if you’re upset to hear about your mistakes, and even if you think they are wrong and you shouldn’t change your behavior, they’re giving you the gift of information you didn’t have before.

It’s up to you to save you

Replace your excuses with a consistent work ethic. Remove your fear of failure and trust the process. Replace your scarcity mindset with an abundance mindset.

Reading is the first step

Reading a book ≠ knowing it

Knowing it ≠ implementing it

Doing > Knowing > Reading 

However, Reading is the first step in this process so don’t miss it.

People gravitate toward those...

If you exude negative energy toward those around you, others will turn away. People gravitate toward those who are positive and move away from those who are negative, even if they don’t consciously realize it. You repel opportunities with negativity. Likewise, you can attract them with positivity.
