I think maintenance comes from a daily spiritual growth practice of some kind: prayer, meditation, affirmations. Something that keeps you in the consciousness of higher thoughts and energy. That's also how you make sure you don't do it again.

Letting yourself off the hook takes the stress away.

Your skin will get better, you're going to be more attractive, you're more likely to get a job - all the things you want, you will get as a result of being in a more calm place.

We're not going to stop trying to live big. It's about transforming your stress so that it doesn't take over. The first step is to realize that it is there and that you are trying to outrun your fear.

At some point all lies are brought to the surface and truth comes forth no matter how hard we try to hide it.

What makes me most happy is connecting with others. I love meeting new people, being social, and engaging in empowering discussions.

I recommend free writing in the morning and the evening as a type of mental shower.
