#4 Know Your Ancestry
Whether it’s a family tree or DNA, your family history is important. It’s the anchor of your ship… the chemical composition of your existence.
#6 Stop Being Defensive
When you feel your body tightening, that’s the moment you know it’s imperative that you step back. Take a deep breath. Count to five.
#8 Make Decisions
Take time to imagine each of the options; or at least the top three. Try to visualize how each of the decisions may play out in your life. Notice which option feels more intrinsic.
#10 Know ‘Your’ Colors
The idea was that you could have your skin tone assessed and that would direct the color of your makeup, lipstick, and wardrobe colors; because when you wear the ‘right’ colors – it highlights your natural beauty.
#12 Argue Effectively
Remembering that we each come into a relationship with different experiences, worldviews, expectations, and methods will go a long way.
#14 Practice Self Discipline
Research has demonstrated that our belief about our ability to practice self discipline will ultimately determine how successful we are.
#16 Create a “Make Me Happy” List
I am suggesting that you make a list and tape it all over the house… on the mirrors in the bathrooms. On the back of the bedroom doors.
#18 Sit With Yourself
It’s quiet time; sitting and being. It’s for introspection, creative thinking, and thoughtfulness. It’s for mental planning, self nourishment, and emotional recharging.
#19 Realign Yourself
Just like you do when the steering wheel starts to wobble… step back every once in awhile and take stock of your values – matching them against your actions & behavior.
