You allow people to treat you the way they do. Your energy, confidence and attitude is the currency that others will transact with.

Sometimes, things need to come undone for better things to come together.

People will become what you think of them. See them for their beauty and they will rise up. See them for their darkness, and they will fall.

There's a great difference between being positive and being delusional.

The "natural" instincts when someone is going through a breakup are counterintuitive to healing. For instance, many people stop eating or eat very unhealthy, and if your body is not fed the necessary nutrients during this trying time, it's extremely difficult for you to heal emotionally. So, first things first, force yourself to eat, even if that entails drinking green smoothies so you're getting nutrients in your body.

Have things to look forward to: Plan a trip, treat yourself to the spa, make plans in the future so that you can focus on what you're looking forward to versus how unbearable your present is. Understand that your brain is detaching. It's the same part of the brain that is activated as a cocaine user feening for their next fix. You're literally in withdrawal. Understand that it takes time for your brain and neural pathways to detach. You're not going crazy - it's just a process, and that process takes time.

Integrity is when your good intentions meet your actions - on a consistent basis.
