What I should keep in mind:
Everybody doesn’t have to love me. I don’t necessarily like everybody I know, so why should everybody else like me? I enjoy being liked and being loved, but if someone doesn’t like me, I will still be okay and still feel like I am an okay person. 1.. I don’t need approval all the time. If someone does not approve of me, I will still be okay.
I don’t have to control things. I will survive if things are different than what I want them to be. I can accept things the way they are, accept people the way they are, and accept myself the way I am. There is no reason to get upset if I can’t change things to fit my idea of how they ought to be. There is no reason why I have to like everything. 2..
I am responsible for my day. I am responsible for how I feel and what I do. Nobody can make me feel anything. If I have a rotten day, I am the one who allowed it to be that way. If I have a great day, I am the one who deserves credit for being positive. It is not the responsibility of other people to change so that I can feel better. 3..
It is important to try. I can. Even though I may be faced with difficult tasks, it is better to try than to avoid them. Avoiding a task does not give me any opportunities for success or joy, but trying does. 4.. I might not be able to do everything, but I can do something.
I can be flexible. 5.. More than one person has good ideas that will work. Everybody has ideas that are worthwhile. Some may make more sense to me than others, but everyone’s ideas are worthwhile, and everyone has something worthwhile to contribute.
A. I can get along well with them.
B. Even if I don’t like it, I can live with it.
C. I can deal with it when things go wrong.
D. I am the one who is in charge of my life.
E. Things worth having are worth the effort.
F. There is more than one way to do something.
G. I cannot make somebody like me just like someone cannot get me to like them.
