The beauty you see in me is a reflection you.

Look in the mirror. See that person looking back at you? That’s you. That will forever be you. During the times that you feel like you’re all alone in the universe, take a look into the mirror, and remember that that person staring back is with you. You will always have yourself.

Show respect to every person you meet in your life, even when they did nothing to receive it. It’s a reflection of good character.

If you are willing to look at another person’s behavior toward you as a reflection of the state of their relationship with themselves rather than a statement about your value as a person, then you will, over a period of time cease to react at all.
Memory Tips
- Study repeatedly - Overlearn. Take advantage of life’s little intervals (i.e.- riding the bus, walking, waiting in the grocery checkout line)
- Spend time actively thinking about material - Exercise weak memories with rehersal and critical reflection. No skimming!
- Make material personally meaningful - Write notes in your own words. Form as many cue associations (i.e.- images, experiences) as possible!
- Use mnemonic devices for lists - Associate items with peg words, create a vivid story involving the items, or chunk items into acronyms
- Refresh your memory by activating cues - Mentally re-create situations/moods where you orginally learned the material or physically return to the location
- Minimize interferences - Study about an hour before sleep. Don’t study similar subjects back-to-back (i.e.- Studying Spanish then French right after)
- Test your knowledge - Don’t be overconfident about recalling the material. Test yourself with the learning objectives. You can outline sections, define terms/concepts, create practice tests, or explain the topic to a friend without using your notes
Psychology: 8th Edition by David G. Myers, Chapter 9 - Memory
If you are willing to look at another person’s behavior toward you as a reflection of the state of their relationship with themselves rather than a statement about your value as a person, then you will, over a period of time cease to react at all.
Yogi Bhajan (via deeplifequotes)
والذي نفسه بغير جمال، لا يرى في الوجود شيئا جميلا
Who doesn’t see beauty in himself, verily won’t see beauty in the rest of the world.
(Elia Abu Madi)
