1—Take a breath, calm your thoughts, then THINK about this quote…
 

“As a musician and a songwriter, it is an act of the ego to believe that other people might be interested in your point of view. But it is usually an empathetic nature that gets you going in the first place. Music keeps the heart porous in many ways.” ~ Bono

  Or this scripture passage…

“God is our merciful Father and the source of all comfort.  He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others.  When they are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us.” 1 Corinthians 1:3, 4 (NLT) 

2—Now, add to your Values List*…

Choose the best word that comes closest to what you value most. Write it on your list…

Quality • Rare • Physical Risk • Respect

3—Write this in your own hand—large & bold. Fold neatly/wad into a ball. Touch/squeeze it every time you get anxious. Tonight, file away for later.
 

I Am…
Fully and Completely Unique
 

AWARENESS: My life flows into your life like waves on the sea of change. Empathy is my source of connection and happiness.

God Bless,
