Our minds possess the power to heal pain and stress, and to blossom into peace and joy, by loosening the clinging attitudes that Buddhists call "grasping at self." If we apply the mind's healing power, we can heal not only our mental and emotional afflictions, but physical problems also... Yet for healing, we don't have to be believers in any particular faith.

• Trust thyself. Every heart vibrates to that iron string. Your intuition is wiser than you think.
• Imitation is suicide. Don’t live someone else’s life. Your genius lies in being fully, originally you.
• Speak your truth boldly. What you believe deeply today may evolve—but don’t hold back for fear of judgment.
• Great people live from the inside out. They ignore applause or criticism—and follow what feels divinely true.
• Your consistency is courage. Be who you are—even when it’s hard. Especially when it’s hard.

• breath 6+2+7
• thought replacement (good instead of bad)
• focus on solutions
• start with one step to solution
• ready, fire, aim, don't wait

10-Minute Toughness by Jason Selk—a practical, performance-boosting guide that shows how to build mental toughness, confidence, and focus in just 10 minutes a day.

• Mental training is physical training for your mind.
  Just like the gym builds your body, daily reps build resilience.
• Confidence is earned through preparation.
  Self-trust grows when you rehearse success—not just hope for it.
• The “mental workout” works. Jason Selk’s 5-part routine
  (centering breath, identity statement, goal setting, visualization, and self-talk) delivers results.
• Control what you can. Focus on effort, attitude, and preparation—
  let go of what you can’t influence.
• Mental toughness is a habit.
  Build it proactively—not just when things get tough.
