When asked to present 10 things that will change your life in 10 minutes at the annual Pink Party, I couldn't stop at 10. Here are 10 more!
When someone says you look nice, say, thank you. Stop talking. Let them ask you where you got your clothes and if they were on sale.
Just because you don't understand it doesn't make it not true. If someone loves cilantro and you think it tastes like soap, it doesn't make it less true for them. If someone is married to what seems like a lazy person, just because it doesn't work for you, doesn't mean it doesn't work for them.
Setbacks are actually setups. Trust that when you don't get what you want, there's a redirection that's better than what you had planned. Faith is worthless until it's tested. If you're being tested right now, it might just be a setupn for something better.
Where you come from has nothing to do with where you're going. You aren't your past. You didn't pick your parents or their choices. And you aren't responsible for them. Or the worst things that were done to them.
Be a human being not a human doing. Spend more of your time being you rather than doing for everyone else.
Your emotions are here to let you know something is bothering you. (Not to lead you around all day.) When an emotion comes up like anger, frustration, or embarrassment, try to thank the emotion for letting you know that something is bothering you. Then, instead of it leading you around all day spilling emotional residue all over everyone and everything you interact with, ask yourself why it bothered you, listen to the answer, and either set it aside to deal with later when you're alone or in the right headspace or get to the root. Don't let 15 minutes of a bad day ruin your whole day.
It's never about "the thing." It's not the thing that made you angry. Anger was already inside you, and "the thing" made it come out. That's when you stop to recognize and thank the anger. Things come out when the right trigger is applied.
You teach people how to treat you. If you don't like how someone is treating you, look at what you're doing to allow them to treat you that way. People can only hurt you at the level of what you think you are worthy of/deserve. Try to disappoint as many people as you can every single day - as long as you aren't disappointing yourself.
People aren't all good or all bad. Sometimes good people do bad things and bad people do good things. That's it. It's not all yes or no, black or white or even 50/50. It's a messy mix of all the things and it changes on a daily basis.
Fight for your flow. When you're in the flow, there's no better feeling. Do what you have to do in order to stay in the flow.
