Our self image, strongly held, essentially determines what we become.

We are injured and hurt emotionally, Not so much by other people or what they say and don't say, But by our own attitude and our own response.

It is an old psychological axiom that constant exposure to the object of fear immunizes against the fear.

Life is a series of problems.

See yourself reacting to threats, not by running away or evading them, but by meeting them, dealing with them, grappling with them in an aggressive intelligent manner.

To change a habit, make a conscious decision, then act out the new behavior.

When we consciously and deliberately develop new and better habits, our self image tends to outgrow the old habits and grow into the new pattern.
