Resistance

Today when I encounter my own resistance, I will not turn back or be
hard on myself. Instead I will see it as a sign that I am beginning to
change. If I did not encounter my own resistance, I would not really be
working or taking seriously what I am doing. Resistance is a sign that
something is happening. When I am asking myself to change the way I see
things and adopt a more positive, constructive attitude, a lot of old
tapes kick in and tell me that it ca... Read More

Love

Today I accept that love is not a sentiment but an energy. When I see
love in a sentimental context, I wait for the situation to appear before

myself physically, mentally and spiritual... Read More

July 1: Minding My Own Business

Today I will mind my own business. Interfering in other people's lives
doesn't help them or me. Sometimes I get fascinated by another person's
problems as a way of getting away from my own insides. Sometimes I am
