Sometimes being overwhelmed by emotions can leave you speechless but even then it is important to identify the correct emotion.

When people seem angry, sometimes they are simply upset and hurting. Asking the right questions helps them to work through it.

How we make people feel shapes how they feel about us.

Be you, be true to your word, don't sell yourself short and don't waste your life worrying.

It is easy to respond with anger it is more empowering and spiritually elevating to respond with compassion.

Jealousy of another means you need to work on making you proud of yourself.

We have to allow ourselves to feel it in order to heal it.

Being your authentic self reassures the people you meet.

We build confidence by daring to step outside our comfort zone in small increments.

Your eyes will contradict your words if your words contradict your thoughts and feelings.

Building confidence comes from overcoming the voice in your head that says you are not capable silence the noise and then prove it wrong.

Feeling your way to knowledge rather than thinking your way, often results in better learning.

In a world of increasing fakery, genuine people are the sexiest.

When you become aggressive in arguments, you force the other person to become defensive which means they__l either get ready to fight you or ready to flee from you.

An external locus of identity is unhealthy and yet the very thing that social media encourages in those with low self-esteem.

When you lack self-esteem, people you encounter can feel it like an invisible barrier separating them from you; conversely, confidence helps people to feel connected to you.

Jealousy is when their reflection in the mirror that is your progress, is attacked rather than appreciated, begrudged rather than understood.

How we care for ourselves gives our brain messages that shape our self-worth so we must care for ourselves in every way, every day.
