1 Never Ever Give UP!(see my one of my favorite poems/story on my weight loss blog)
2 Love God, yourself, and others (God is 1st, then ourselves, because it is difficult to show love to others when we are not happy with ourselves)
3 Serve others (losing our selves in service helps us to feel Gods love, for us and others.)
4 Forgive others and ourselves (If you don't you have already given up, and you will not be forgiven. Just think how much better it feels to be forgiven, and not to carry a grudge is a relief.)
5 Remember YOU ARE A CHILD OF GOD and he loves you.
6 Remember you are not, nor have ever been truly alone. You have the Lord to guide and help you. (Remember the old picture of the Savior knocking at the door with no door knob. We have to open the door by inviting him into our lives, or use the gift he gave you the "Holy Ghost".)
7 Learn to use the communication God has given. (Prayer takes sin away, and sin takes prayer away. It is not always easy, but can be done. Just think I Can, and I Will .)
8 Standing still on a downward escalator will not get you to God. You've got to move in the desired direction. (obedience, prayer, faith in Him, church attendance, all helps us get there.)
9 Be Happy! (Smile and enjoy your families)
10 Make someone else's day by saying something kind, and true about them. (Then enjoy the lighting up of their face, because you made theme feel special.)
Tag your it, it's your turn, whoever wants to participate.
