These are words of Encouragement for all of you.

Stop Comparing Yourself With Others

by Jane

" Preserve your confidence. "

When you use others as your measuring stick, you usually come up short. You

convince yourself you're not as clever, beautiful, thin or talented.

Lasting satisfaction and confidence comes from appreciating yourself with all

that you have to offer. Equating yourself with others eats away at your

confidence and leaves you feeling inferior.

Remind yourself of these simple truths. You are a unique and special person,

exactly as you are. You're one-of-a-kind and you're irreplaceable.

With convictions such as these, you confidence is impermeable, just as it should

be.

Life is full of hills and valleys,

some of which would want us to

quit along the way.

It is during these times that we

need to check our focus and remember

that - the focus needs to be on the

finish, not the difficulties along the way.

Set your eye on the goals.

Do not be worried of the

difficulties on your way,

keep your focus on your goals.

Live your joy

It's not the troubles that trouble you. It's the way you react to them.

What if you could choose not to let the troubles get to you? What if you could

work your way through them while remaining positive and joyful?

Life's difficulties do not need your help. They are plenty difficult on their

own, without you adding to them.

So make the choice not to add to them. Acknowledge their reality, deal

effectively with them, but don't allow them to pull you down.

The way you feel is the way you choose to feel. Choose to feel powerful, choose

to feel in control, choose to feel purposeful, abundant and joyful because at

the heart of you, you are.

The living spirit in you is stronger than any trouble you'll ever encounter.

Remember that, feel its truth, and live your joy no matter what.

Ralph Marston

but that fall from your heart and cover your soul.'
