How to Motivate Yourself

1.  Read something positive every day.
2.  Remember your uniqueness and real worth.
3.  Try to "give yourself away" each day.  It's difficult to stay "down" if you are trying to "lift" someone else
4.  Make a habit of associating with winners and avoiding losers.
5.  Avoid gossip.  It's entertainment for vacant minds and is a loser's game.
6.  When you begin to feel overwhelmed or depressed, take a step in the direction of changing something.
7.  Learn to accept people and trust them.
8.  Make a habit of studying for growth.  If you don't like to study, do it until you do.  It's only a habit and you can cultivate it.
9.  Put your "mission ahead of your commission."
10.  Develop the habit of keeping promises to yourself.  Every time you do, you get stronger.
11.  You are the one who determines what your reaction is going to be.  To Anything.
12.  Make a decision only when you feel positve because the decision must be based on "Is it right?" not "Is it convenient?"
13.  If you accept people with empathy, with understanding, with high regard and without judging them, you are then in a position to begin to communicate.
