- Check that your emotions and thoughts are balanced and logical because unsettled emotions and unrealistic thoughts pull you down.
- Mix with people who add value and meaning to your life.
- Avoid seeking acceptance and approval from others, you are wasting your time…approve YOU!
- Write down your strengths and focus on and think about these and never your weaknesses.
- Discover your talents and abilities and improve these in order to find your potential.
If you are a survivor, great! Now you can help others…
