The greatest gifts you can give your children are the roots of responsibility and the wings of independence.
Denis WaitleySelf-esteem is that deep-down inside the skin feeling you have of your own self-worth.
Denis WaitleyOne of the best ways to properly evaluate and adapt to the many environmental stresses of life is to simply view them as normal. The adversity and failures in our lives, if adapted to and viewed as normal corrective feedback to use to get back on target, serve to develop in us an immunity against anxiety, depression, and the adverse responses to stress. Instead of tackling the most important priorities that would make us successful and effective in life, we prefer the path of least resistance and do things simply that will relieve our tension, such as shuffling papers and majoring in minors.
