Simon Haigh: “Coming from a very dark place in my life, I realized that I didn't love myself. I treated myself like a vehicle. As I came out of that, I started to love and respect myself. If you can't be honest with yourself, you're not your own best friend. It's important to support yourself, as well as listen to yourself. Listen to your body and listen to your heart. It's not easy because our ego gets in the way. The mind starts whispering, ‘Simon, this is a load of rubbish! You don't need to be doing this stuff’. It's important to push that voice away, and be pure of thought. 

We can wash away resentment by focusing on the things we are grateful for.

There are many reasons why people fall into addiction. Typically, fear, anger, and resentment. For me it was resentment. Carrying resentment, that negative feeling about other people, is a complete and utter waste of time. It's feeding cancer in your body. We can wash away resentment by focusing on the things we are grateful for.

Find a common ground with people and build rapport. See the good in people. When you meet someone, do your best to make them feel better for having met you. 

Really put forth the effort and tell people you love them. And make sure you are doing the same for yourself.”
