I have to respect other's opinions even if I don't agree with them.

Productive achievement is a consequence and an expression of health and self-esteem, not its cause.

The first step toward change is awareness. The second step is acceptance.

If you are terrified of making mistakes, you will be reluctant to acknowledge them when you do make them-and therefore you will not correct them.

The lies most devastating to our self-esteem are not so much the lies we tell as the lies we live.

If you have high self-esteem, you might still know times of emotional suffering, but less often and with faster recovery-your resilience is greater.

The greatest barrier to achievement and success is not lack of talent or ability but rather the feeling that achievement and success, above a certain level, are outside our self-concept-our image of who we are and what is appropriate to us.
