quality safe kind
Love will keep us safe when we commit to choosing the kind of qualities, characteristics, and relationships that we would recommend to someone we love.
heart successful land
Living exclusively in the land of the head or the heart will always be a limiting, limited experience. The most successful among us have dual citizenship.
people want behavior
When people feel criticized, they almost always defend the behavior you want them to change.
worry glucose weight
Worry, shame, and fear can't be the energy with which we deal with food and weight. It only spurs us to eat more food and produce more glucose/sugar which gets stored as fat.
issues quality important
Regardless of what is being discussed . . . the issue is never more important than the quality of the interaction.
order views influential
In order to become more influential with those who are resistant to our point of view, we must be willing to start with what is influencing them.
feel-good feelings feeling-bad
Fear of feeling bad rarely makes one feel good.
self-confidence keys knowing
The key to self-confidence is knowing that you would choose you... and why. In this way the chosen becomes the chooser, and love versus fear becomes the energy of choice.
practice old-habits way
Change isn't always easy, but with purposeful practice, any old habit can be replaced with a way of being we would recommend to those we love.
people mind aspect
To change any aspect of our life we must be willing to change our mind... Unfortunately, that is the one thing most people are the least willing to do.
past differences knowing
One key to success is knowing the difference between knowledge and wisdom. One is information from the past while the other is the key to the future.
worry brain make-sense
When our worries and fears just don't make sense, it's possible we are trusting the part of the brain that doesn't make sense... it just reacts.
art reflection persons
But if your work is your art, a personal reflection of who you are, the only person who can do that better than you, is a future you.
stress successful frustration
You can't use stress, anxiety, frustration, and worry to deal with your stress, anxiety, frustration, and worry. It's like pulling up to a burning building with a flame thrower. The energy of the problem can't be the energy behind a successful solution.
