"To have high self-esteem, you also need to love your bad qualities - it's fake to love only the good ones. Only by totally loving yourself can you hope to love anyone else and their bad qualities."

I have learnt from living with low self-esteem that only loving yourself sets you free.
"If you don't get everything you want, think of the things you don't get that you don't want."
Oscar Wilde --- Submitted by Munmun Panda --- India
If I could but hold myself in this capsule of time
I would never hear a description of myself as
Too old, too young, too easy, too hard, too strong , too weak
I would move along eternally blissful that my growth is always in full bloom
My years are not important because who I am inside is fathoms deep.

"Sometimes words are not enough to heal the past... but they are always, always, more than plenty to help you build a future."

"What is really behind someone's motive? We all want to find someone that likes us for who we are, not for what they can get; to have someone that enjoys our heart, compassion & love for life.Someone wanting to share with you, to enjoy you, to laugh... together, smile & make memories. You wouldn't want someone who is in for all the wrong reasons. There are people out there who are allfor themselves and only look to see what they can get from a person. Those are the ones who do not have your best interest. Never settle for what you don't deserve."

"Let it go, let it go, let it go......, let it go, let it go, let it go-oh."
Written in 2011 by Robert Burrell --- Australia
When my mind keeps returning to something unpleasant that is not constructive or forward moving, then I sing a little song to myself. It is a slight alteration on the song "Here we go, here we go, herewe go" which is often chanted by football fans. I sing, "Let it go, let it go, let it go......, let it go, let it go, let it go-oh". This often works a treat.

"Success can't be attained if our heads & hearts don't speak the same language. In today's world, anyone can be successful; it's just that we need to learn how are hearts should feel and how are heads need to react."
Written in 2011 by Arun Krishnan --- India
Everyone is running behind success in every aspect of life. People think they can attain success in all their endeavors but forget to understand what they truly want once they are successful. So as a human being,only two things that can bear all the fruits are the head for using it and the heart for feeling it. However people still need to learn to balance it. So once you've mastered this art within yourself, there's nothingthat can stop you from doing what it takes to be successful.
