Reminding myself of my 10 Commandments..
This was from a self esteem course i took back in 2008..
Very fitting for the journey i've recently taken on..

MY TEN COMMANDMENTS

1/ Thou shalt not worry, for worry is the most unproductive of all human activities.
2/ Thou shalt not be fearful, for most of the things we fear never come to pass..
3/ Thou shalt not cross bridges before you get to them, for no one yet has succeeded in accomplishing this.
4/ Thou shalt face each problem as it comes. You can handle only one at a time anyway.
5/ Thou shalt not take problems to bed with you for they make very poor bedfellows.
6/ Thou shalt not borrow other people's problems. They can take better care of them than you can.
7/ Thou shalt not try to relive yesterday for good or ill - it is gone. Concentrate on what is happening in your life today.
8/ Thou shalt count thy blessings, never overlooking the small ones, for a lot of small blessings add up to a big one.
9/ Thou shalt be a good listener, for only when you listen do you hear ideas different from your own. It's very hard to learn something new when you're talking.
10/ Thou shalt not become bogged down by frustration, for 90 percent of it is rooted in self-pity and it will only interfere with positive action.
