We crawl before we walk…
• We learn arithmetic before algebra• We sink before we swim• We must fix ourselves before we can fix
others.If you want to make a change in your life, the place to begin is with yourself, not your parents, or your bf or gf, or your teacher. All change begins with you. It’s inside out. Not outside in.

When I was young and free and myImagination had no limits, I dreamed of
Changing the world;As I grew older and wiser I realized the
World would not change.And I decided to shorten my sights
Somewhat and change only my country.But it too seemed immovable.
As I entered my twilight years, in one last Desperate attempt, I sought to change Only my family, those closest to me, but
Alas they would have not of it.

And now here I lie on my death bed and Realize (perhaps for the first time) that if
Only I’d changed myself first, then by example I may have influenced my
Family and with their encouragementAnd support I may have bettered myCountry, and who knows, I may have
Changed the world.An Anglican Bishop

The real tragedy is the tragedy of the man who never in his life braces himself for his one supreme effort…he never stretches to his full capacity, never stands up to his full stature.Arnold Bennet

This is what the 7 Habits is all about.
• Changing from the inside out, starting with the boy or girl in the mirror.

Your Personal Bank Account• How you feel about yourself is like a bank
account.• Just like a checking or savings account at a
bank, you can make deposits into and take withdrawals from your personal bank account.
Ex: When I keep a promise to myself, I feel in control and add to my PBA. When I break a promise to myself, I feel disappointed and make a withdrawal.

Possible Symptoms of a Poor PBA

you.• You act arrogant to help hide your insecurities.• You self-destruct by getting heavily into drugs,
vandalism or gangs.• You get jealous easily, especially when someone
close to you succeeds.

Let’s clarify a few things…
• Treat commitments you make to yourself as seriously as those we make to the most important people in your life.
• If you ever feel depressed, the best thing to do is to do something for someone else. It gets you focused outward, not inward. It’s hard to be depressed while serving others.

Be gentle with yourself…
• Don’t expect yourself to be perfect by tomorrow morning. Be patient and give yourself time to grow.
• Learn to laugh at the stupid things you do.• Forgive yourself• Truly learn to love yourself

Renew yourself…

yourself?
