About Me

“The moment inbetween what you once were, and who you are now becoming, is where the dance of life really takes place.” ~ Barbara De Angelis "Nothing happens without personal transformation." I decided one day I wanted to change. I wanted more from life. I realized that if you want more, YOU have to make it happen. You have to go to it and create it. The most powerful weapon against a mediocre life is practice. And just like a fire, the human spirit needs to be lit again each day.

12 Rules for Building Self-Confidence

So I am reading a new book. 
The 12 rules are:
1. Focus on your potential instead of your limitations.
2.  Determine to know the truth about yourself.
3.  Distinguish between who you are and what you do. 
4.  Find something you like to do and do well, and go do it over and over. 
5.  Replace self-criticism with regular, positive self-talk. 
6.  Replace fear of failure with clear pictures of yourself functioning successfully and happily. 
7.  Dare to be a little eccentric. 
8.  Make the best possible peace with your parents.
9.  Determine to integrate the body and spirit. 
10.  Determine to live above neurotic guilt. 
11.  Cultivate people who help you grow.
12.  Refuse to allow rejection to keep you from taking the initiative with people.

Anyway, so I'm ready for what this book has to offer and how i can learn from it.
