  1. Have a clear personal and professional vision. If you know where you are heading, you are more likely to arrive there and achieve what you want to.
  2. Spend less time worrying about what other people think of you and more time on ensuring your self-talk is positive and encouraging.
  3. Remember that the past is there as your teacher not something to torture you. Live your life in the present moment.
  4. Stop comparing your performance to others, measure your progress against your own targets and standards.
  5. Be kind to yourself and others. Do a little bit every day to help make the world a better place.
  6. Avoid negative people and environments that drag you down, drain your energy and make you feel low.

  18. Never take life for granted or forget that every day is a gift.
