Lesson no. 13

• Our thoughts are created based on past experiences, the information we take in and most important our belief systems.
• Other's appreciation and acceptance has become the foundation of our esteem, and so we are always dependent on their acceptance to feel good about ourselves.
• In interactions, when we get hurt, we are unable to see the perspective of the other, and hence are unable to understand others we need to remain stable.
• People who accept us today and make us feel good, may not be able to do it tomorrow, and then we feel low with the same people.
• Its important to take charge of how we feel, instead of being dependent on others. To be INDEPENDENT means to be dependent only on the inside.
• Let us be ourselves and not keep changing our behavior according to the way others behave with us.
