1. Mental
health is an ongoing process of dedication to reality at all costs.
2. Your
conditions for self-acceptance are entirely up to you.
3. “There
are three musts that hold us back: I must do well. You must treat me well. And
the world must be easy.” —Albert Ellis
4. If you
are abused, you have a choice about what to tell yourself about the abuse.
5. Resist
overgeneralization, black and white, either/or thinking. Once you stop doing
such things, your mind will open up to a world of possibilities.
6. True
love is not a feeling by which we are overwhelmed. It is a committed,
thoughtful decision.
7. You will
have to work at keeping the threshold of tolerating frustration high so that
the world doesn’t swallow you whole.
8. I DEFINE
IT. IT DOES NOT DEFINE ME. Something does not bring value to your life. You
assign value to it.
9. Mutual
loving confrontation is a significant part of all successful and human
relationships. Without it the relationship is either unsuccessful or shallow.
