Does Self Esteem Lead to Success?
Recently I heard an opinion that it was the other way around - success leads to self esteem. That makes some sense of course. So does the idea that if you feel good about yourself you are more likely to pursue and achieve goals. But is there a key ingredient…
Forgiveness
Everybody has stuff that happened in the past. Some of us have relived it over and over and magnified its effects, and continue to carry it around. Full and unconditional forgiveness, of ourselves and others who did those things to us will liberate us, and make us lighter in…
Where fear lives
Where is fear? Is it a thing? Of course it's only in one place - your mind. You created what you're afraid of, and it only exists because you let it. You can dissolve your fear. It's a decision.
