When you become detached mentally from yourself and concentrate on helping other people with their difficulties, you will be able to cope with your own more effectively. Somehow, the act of self-giving is a personal power-releasing factor. |

| Quote: |
Don't be a cynic, and bewail and bemoan. Omit the negative propositions. Don't waste yourself in rejection, nor bark against the bad, but chant the beauty of the good. Set down nothing that will not help somebody. |

| Quote: |
No matter how frustrated you may feel, there is always a way out. In every situation that arise, we choose to be powerful or powerless. It may not always feel like it, but it is a choice. And there are consequences for these choices in terms of the results we get, and the subsequent increase or decrease in our power and influence. If we choose powerlessness, it is often because we doubt there is any other option. |

| Quote: |
Isolating yourself is not healthy spiritually, mentally, or physically, and it is certainly not the way to achieve a better life.
I believe nobody makes it alone... always keep in mind your relationships. Nurture them, build them, and lean on them when you
need to. Do not be afraid to ask for help or encouragement along the way. Remember also that just as you need a and now and then,
so do those coming behind you. |
