72 Name of the Week Hey Hey Hey 41. Self Esteem

Instead of yelling, I speak quietly. Instead of cursing, I compliment. Instead of taking, I give. Instead of worrying, I awaken certainty and take charge. Instead of fearing, I conjure up courage. Instead of seeking revenge, I offer forgiveness. Instead of blaming, I become accountable. Instead of playing the victim, I hold myself responsible. Instead of merely coping with a problem, I seek to cure it. Instead of complaining, I start appreciating. Instead of looking for the negative in a situation, I find the positive. Instead of judging others, I look for the good in them. Instead of gossiping and bad-mouthing others, I change the subject, or I simply walk away. Instead of listing reasons why life is so unfair, I start counting my blessings. Instead of calculating how something will benefit me, I figure out a way to ensure that the other party benefits. Instead of reacting to external situations, I resist and become proactive.
