Heal Yourself-01

I am so tired of all the negativity around me! Are you? This world

is toxic and it is sick. I hate watching the news, reading the

newspaper or even interacting with my neighbors. I don’t want to

appear antisocial. I genuinely love people. But this world has

made us cold and cruel.

The result is a society of unhappy people. Well over 50% of all

marriages end in divorce. Well over 50% of all young adults do

not even believe in marriage. We need to get back to the days

where it was easy to talk to strangers and it was unnatural not to

be polite.

Back to the days where people actually believed in love and

looked out for their neighbors. We need to start loving ourselves

again. We each need to be the change we wish to see in the

world. We need to heal ourselves and start loving ourselves

again.

Happy people are successful people. This is simply because

being happy makes it easy to stay motivated to reaching your

goals. Your thoughts have a very significant impact on the life you

lead and the quality of the relationships you will have with family

members, friends, and significant others. Some even reason that

our thoughts and beliefs can have an even stronger effect on our

health than modern medicine. Consider these examples:

• A middle-aged man dies a day after his Doctor diagnosed

him with Cancer, even though his autopsy revealed he was

misdiagnosed.

• Many women who are desperate to have a child will begin to

have real symptoms of a pregnancy such as cravings and an

increase in the size of their breasts, despite the fact that they are

not actually pregnant.

• People who suffer from Depression who participate in clinical

trials for new antidepressants start experiencing an improvement

in their moods although they were given the placebo and not the

actual drug.

That being said, it has been scientifically proven that you can

improve your health, career and relationships simply by improving

the way you think about yourself and the world around you. This

is a lot cheaper than paying for sessions with a therapist or paying

a Divorce Lawyer.

This book is intended to help you heal yourself of all the scars and

the influence of all the negativity around. I guarantee that learning

to rid yourself of the pain of this world will drastically improve the

quality of your life from this point forward.

Chapter 1 – Know Thy Self

“The more you know yourself, the more patience you have for

what you see in others.” - Erik Erikson

Knowing who you are is a very crucial aspect of healing yourself.

How can you avoid a disaster if you are simply floating through

life with no clear sense of what you stand for, and what you refuse

to tolerate?

There is a reason why the small town girl with big dreams, who

gets to the big city, often ends up in some miserable and dare I

say, compromising, situation.

Think too of the unhappy Doctor who is only a Doctor because his

parents decided that he needed to become the first Doctor in their

family. What about the hen picked mama’s boy who dates a girl

he cannot stand because it makes his mother happy? These

three have a lot in common.

Their problem can be explained in the old saying that points out

that if we do not know where we are going, any road will be the

right one. And better yet, ‘if we do not stand for something, we will

fall for anything.' In other words, if we do not understand

ourselves, this includes our hopes, dreams, and aspirations, it will

be easy for just about anyone to push us into a decision we will

regret for the rest of our lives. Living down a choice you regret,

especially if you have to face its consequences on a daily basis, is

going to be one of the hardest things you have ever had to do.

Living with the burden of these choices is part of the reason many

people are so bitter and unkind. This is not the way I want you to

navigate through your life.

When we take the time to understand who we truly are, the

intricacies of our own personalities, we will have the keys to

unlock our true potential. You cannot become your best self if you

do not know what that entails. When you understand yourself, you

are more likely to end up choosing a career that you love. And it is

quite easy to be passionately driven to achieve great things when

you are pursuing a career that you love.

Additionally, when you are at the top of your game, you will seek

out the kind of partners and friends that will make you happy and

thus bring out the best in you. They will understand the way you

think and may very well think the same way you do too. These are

the kind of people who will not laugh at your dreams or be jealous

of your success. Being surrounded by loving, supportive people,

will make you a kinder, happier and dare I say, more successful

person.

Individuals who have a deep understanding of themselves, are

often more decisive and optimistic. That is because these

individuals are in full control of their life choices and they chose
