The Four Agreements
Introduction to The Four Agreements by Ruiz:
"Everything we do is based on agreements we have made - agreements with ourselves, with other people, with God, with life. But the most important agreements are the ones we make with ourselves. In these agreements we tell ourselves who we are, how to behave, what is possible, what is impossible. One single agreement is not such a problem, but we have many agreements that come from fear, deplete our energy and diminish our self-worth."
-Miguel Ruiz

The 7 As in Self Esteem
Change your heart by changing your self esteem. You can lead a better life if you change your self esteem. Look at life positively. See the goodness in all that you do. Love and appreciate people. They are the greatest resources that we have.
Self love : self-esteem
In the British dictionary of definitions, self-love is described as "the instinct or tendency to seek one's own well-being or to further one's own interest.” Self-love is the foundation on which everything else is built on, and it should be solid to be able to live a good life where things will fall into place.
Self Love
We live in an unreal world where everything is either perfectly wonderful or absolutely terrible. Each person is unique and powerful in their own way. Self love is the greatest love. It is something that is never taught to us in schools and colleges but it plays an important role in shaping the personality of an individual.The whole of this idea is a matter of maturing. Accepting and embracing ourselves leads us to a wonderful journey of success and happiness. If we do not respect our own wishes, no one else will. Amidst all the chaos and commotion of life, we often forget to realize our own worth. Before anyone else's acceptance, we need to first accept ourselves.Nowadays, everyone is under the constant pressure of being the best and standing out in the competition that it leads to low self esteem and brings emptiness in our lives. Therefore, by practicing self love we can uplift and nourish our soul and provide way for bringing immense happiness and contentment into our lives. We need to realize the significance of loving ourselves and inculcate the essence of self love in our daily life to lead a better and happier life with more zest and enthusiasm. This is extremely uplifting and liberating for all the human beings.

Relator Relator describes your attitude toward your relation.docx
Relator
Relator describes your attitude toward your relationships. In simple terms, the Relator theme pulls you toward people you already know. You do not necessarily shy away from meeting new people—in fact, you may have other themes that cause you to enjoy the thrill of turning strangers into friends—but you do derive a great deal of pleasure and strength from being around your close friends. You are comfortable with intimacy. Once the initial connection has been made, you deliberately encourage a deepening of the relationship. You want to understand their feelings, their goals, their fears, and their dreams; and you want them to understand yours. You know that this kind of closeness implies a certain amount of risk—you might be taken advantage of—but you are willing to accept that risk. For you a relationship has value only if it is genuine. And the only way to know that is to entrust yourself to the other person. The more you share with each other, the more you risk together. The more you risk together, the more each of you proves your caring is genuine. These are your steps toward real friendship, and you take them willingly.
Individualization
Your Individualization theme leads you to be intrigued by the unique qualities of each person. You are impatient with generalizations or “types” because you don’t want to obscure what is special and distinct about each person. Instead, you focus on the differences between individuals. You instinctively observe each person’s style, each person’s motivation, how each thinks, and how each builds relationships. You hear the one-of-a-kind stories in each person’s life. This theme explains why you pick your friends just the right birthday gift, why you know that one person prefers praise in public and another detests it, and why you tailor your teaching style to accommodate one person’s need to be shown and another’s desire to “figure it out as I go.” Because you are such a keen observer of other people’s strengths, you can draw out the best in each person. This Individualization theme also helps you build productive teams. While some search around for the perfect team “structure” or “process,” you know instinctively that the secret to great teams is casting by individual strengths so that everyone can do a lot of what they do well.
Deliberative
You are careful. You are vigilant. You are a private person. You know that the world is an unpredictable place. Everything may seem in order, but beneath the surface you sense the many risks. Rather than denying these risks, you draw each one out into the open. Then each risk can be identified, assessed, and ultimately reduced. Thus, you are a fairly serious person who approaches life with a certain reserve. For example, you like to plan ahead so as to anticipate what might go wrong. You select your friends cautiously and keep your own counsel when the conversation turns to personal matters. You are careful not to give too much praise and recognition, l ...
Steps on How to Fall IN LOVE

2 reasons why you have a difficult time creating your own lifestyle
This document discusses two main reasons why people have difficulty creating their own lifestyle and trusting themselves. The first is following the crowd - believing that their decisions must match others' in order to be correct. The second is an inability to control two basic human needs - the need to feel accepted by others through similarities, and the need to live a meaningful life through one's own beliefs. When trying to develop an independent lifestyle, people suffer from not meeting their need for acceptance, and from not meeting their need for a meaningful life when blending in with others instead. This causes an internal struggle between the two competing needs.

Confidence! w dversion
This document discusses ways to boost self-confidence that don't involve just bombarding oneself with positive messages. It suggests understanding that one does not need to be "on" and perfect all the time, and avoiding absolutes when criticizing oneself.

One should treat oneself as a best friend rather than worst enemy, and find genuine happiness in others' successes instead of feeling competitive. True self-confidence comes from improving for oneself, not for others, and accepting different definitions of success.
