We have a lot of limiting beliefs that we're not even conscious of. Maybe your family taught you you weren't good enough or you weren't smart enough. Perhaps we're taught that this religion is good and all other religions are bad. It's endless.

Write down how you really feel, not how you wish you felt or how you think you should feel, but how you really feel. Don't try to change it. Honor it: "This is how I feel." Express it, and then it's not suppressed and stored somewhere in your liver or somewhere else.

We all have various ways of dropping in and getting connected to ourselves. For one person it might be playing basketball. It's a good way to get in touch with how they feel. For somebody else, it might be taking a walk.

The worst lies of all are the ones we tell ourselves. They are the most damaging.

We all need time to enjoy being alive without an agenda of getting something done.

That's like buying asparagus and then leaving it at the checkout. Why would you do that?

The truth is, you are your own “special someone,” and loving yourself is the first step to finding love outside yourself.
