No one can walk the life path choosing for you, only you can do that. You cannot free yourself from a problem by shutting your eyes from it. You have to acknowledge it and face it with your eyes and heart open. – Author Unknown.
 
If we try to be the best that we can be in whatever the situation is that we find ourselves in each day, then we will surely be able to cope and enjoy life far better than if we wallow in self pity and miserable self defeating thoughts.

“Life is a bowl of cherries. Some cherries are rotten while others are good; its your job to throw out the rotten ones and forget about them while you enjoy eating the ones that are good! There are two kinds of people: those who choose to throw out the good cherries and wallow in all the rotten ones, and those who choose to throw out all the rotten ones and savor all the good ones.” – C. JoyBell C.

 Life is a product of your mindset, your attitude, your daily thoughts, your view of life and the future etc. First steps are always the hardest but until they are taken the notion of progress remains only a notion and not an achievement. – Aberjhani.

 Taking control of your life means seeing the value of a hopeful positive view for the future and then making it so with a change of attitude and a desire to go where your heart and soul guides you. “Remember, you have been criticizing yourself for years and it hasn’t worked. Try approving of yourself and see what happens.” – Louise L. Hay.

Remember there are two sides to every story.
If you are not willing to listen to both sides then please don’t be so quick to make your judgment of the person or situation on what little information that you have.
To find the truth then we must find out both sides of the story, and only then can we make a proper assessment of what is really going on.
 
 
When you want advice consider this.
Look at the person who offers you advice and ask yourself, “Does this person really have the answers I need?”, and consider this persons life, what is he or she like right now, are they in control of their life or floundering about trying to fix up the mess that they have got themselves into?
 
Because they will only give you advice that is worth who they are, meaning what they are is the advice you will get, so do you want to be like this person? If not, then get your advice off somebody who is more like who you want to be.
