"Expectations are barometers of success." As nice as it would be, you don't just wake up one day feeling confident. Lasting confidence is earned, through successes and accomplishments. We all place expectations on the outcome of our performance. It's important to remember that such expectations ultimately determine whether you consider yourself successful or not. If you're consistently not meeting your expectations, redefine them. Make sure they are realistic. And, most importantly, make sure they are your own. When you meet your own realistic expectations, when you measure success by your own barometer (not someone else's), you will feel successful and your confidence will rise. ©Jane Powell   Give people you dont know a fair chance. When you look at a person, any person, remember that everyone has a story. Everyone has gone through something that has changed them, and forced them to grow. Every passing face on the street represents a story every bit as compelling and complicated as yours. We meet no ordinary people in our lives. If you give them a chance, everyone has something amazing to offer. So appreciate the possibility of new relationships as you naturally let go of old ones that no longer work. Trust your judgment. Embrace new relationships, knowing that you are entering into unfamiliar territory. Be ready to learn, be ready for a challenge, and be ready to meet someone that might just change your life forever.   Uniquely valuable day This is a great day to be alive. This is a great day to be you. You can delight in the beauty of every little thing. You can experience the wonderful satisfaction of knowing you're making a positive difference. You can dream, and then enjoy working your way toward the fulfillment of that dream. You can learn and create, and love and share, and experience life's richness in your own unique way. This is an outstanding moment, because it is a culmination of all you've ever experienced. The paths you've chosen have led you right here, and now you can do something new and meaningful with it all. The fears and shortcomings of your past no longer have to hold you back. The genuine love that's within you has more longing and ability to be expressed than ever before. Look around you with thankful, loving eyes, and feel what a truly great day it is to be alive. The very best of life is here now for you, so live it to the fullest on this uniquely valuable day. Ralph Marston      Rose!
