More on Enhancing Self-Esteem

When you give of yourself to another person, you are planting seeds. Some of the seeds you plant will bear fruit immediately, but others may not come to fruition for years. When you invest yourself in the life of another, sharing your riches - yourself - you can have an impact on that person for many years to come. In fact, you may change a life forever. Connecting person-to-person is one of the most powerful aspects of life we can experience.

Happiness is a conscious choice, not an automatic response. You are totally responsible for your well-being. Accept the ability to choose. You are the pilot of your life. You're the one flipping the switches, feeding the data, pressing the buttons, stewarding the emotions, and maintaining equilibrium. If you don't take the role as pilot you will become lost. You might end up where someone else wants you to be, but not necessarily where you want to be. When you're making decisions you should always consult your soul. This reinforces your use of internal locus of control, while at the same time enhancing the integrity of your decisions.
