Yourself
Have You Stopped To Consider Yourself Lately?
- Have you adopted the attitude of an "egoist" or a "doormat?"
- Are you a "giver" or a "taker?"
- Are you one who "does" or one who "neglects?"
- Are you a "leader" or a "follower?"
You likely consider yourself somewhere in the middle of these extremes. But, no matter your stance, you need to take control. Find out who you are and build on your gifts and talents of self.
Listen to yourself. Reflect on what you say and do. Build on your experiences. Increase your knowledge through education and training. Grow from the adventures of others. Deep down, your convictions will be built on the opinion and beliefs of those you would emulate. Can you see or hear others in your thoughts, words, and emotions? Don't resist those responses. Be aware and choose to say and do the things you want to say and do ... yourself.
Know yourself. See that you are unique and special. No one else is exactly like you. Learn from your strengths and weaknesses. Trust yourself. Learn to rely on your abilities and desires. Let God work in your life.
Your service is needed right where you are today. Love yourself. You must take care of yourself to be there for your loved ones and those you meet along lifeâs pathway.
Give of self to those about you. Experience the fullness of life by being an example for others. But, most of all, be yourself. Learn how to put your best foot forward in all that you do. Your world, community, family, and loved ones rely on you to be true to yourself.
