Yet there is a part of you that can find great value in every kind of feedback. Rather than being upset or giddy about any response you get, raise your focus to a higher level. Be curious. The surest way to learn is to do. That's especially true when it comes to learning how others will respond to you. Life at its highest level is about giving of your most authentic, original self. And that's an exercise where continual practice leads to rapid improvement. Give your best, and see what happens. Based on that, you'll figure out how to continue making your best even better. Today you have the chance to create a new world. For life is constantly changing, and in those changes there is always great opportunity. Think carefully about exactly how you would like your life and your world to be. Create a dream that is authentically you. Feel the reality of that dream in the depth of your spirit. Then feel the energy with which you will make it real. Change is always happening, so choose to make change your friend. Hold tightly to the steady values that have always meant so much to you, while finding new and fulfilling ways to express those values. Do not rely on others to change your life for the better, because you are the person who knows what you value most and who is best able to make it happen. Commit yourself to seeing the positive possibilities in every turn of events, and then do the work necessary to make those possibilities real. Life is filled with much goodness and you can make it even better.
