Relationships are decided by us. We decide who is in our lives and how they treat us. Many times we feel that this aspect is out of our hands. We allow people to treat us good or bad. When we give up the control of how others will treat us, we often lose ourselves because we rely on their every word. We must have respect for ourselves and not allow people to treat us wrong. Decide to have great relationships and you will have great relationships. 

In life, we will all be met with difficult times. It is up to us to determine how long those times will last. What I do know is that if we focus on taking action to get out of the difficult times they will pass quickly. We need to focus on the positive outlook on life and face negativity head-on. You are made to pass through difficulty and you will. 

It is time to stop seeking validation from others. You must find it from within. You are truly better than you think. Stop focusing on negative thoughts and find the positives you have. No matter what belief you have in your self you have to tell yourself that you are good enough for you. 

Complacency is a bad place to be. When we get comfortable with the success we are having often times we lose sight of our goals. We need to continue to challenge ourselves daily. We do not want to put on blinders and lose focus of our big picture goals.

Decisions are what creates the life around us. We have the choice to decide what we want life to be. Many time we look at decisions as good or bad. What we need to do is not judge our decisions until we have realized the true outcome of them. Sometimes the bad decisions we thought we made turn out to be the best ones. So don't be so quick to judge and enjoy the journey. 

Where has all of the compassion gone? We need to stand up as a society and love one another. We are so focused on the negative things that we have gotten a little out of touch with reality. It is important for us to understand one another and become a better person out of it.

We have to know that the challenges we have faced have only made us stronger. When we doubt ourselves we need to remind ourselves that we are powerful. You are capable of uncovering the greatest you by standing up to the challenge of life. Get what you want out of life and use the lessons life has given you as strengths.

Visualization is a big reason for success and failure. Many of us are not taught how to visualize what we want in life. If we visualize what we want, we can make it come to life. You have to have a belief that you already have these things and act as though it is already yours. Take time to learn about visualization and you will find great success. 

In life, it is easy to become distracted. We have to focus on the things that we want in life. In today's world, we are flooded with information and distraction. You get notifications every few minutes on your phone. You have to be able to set yourself up for success. Take time to set up your day so you can prepare to minimize distraction. 

Teamwork is essential to growth. Success is often based whether we can communicate effectively. We must decide that we can join and bring the best of us to all teams. When we are all in on a team, we will find great success because we have bought into the ideas.
