“If you found out, realized, or learned something today that totally changes how you would have acted, or decisions you made in the past, don’t beat yourself up for not knowing it before. Think instead of how much your life will change from this day forward, now that you know it, and how much better and wiser your decisions will be in the future. Be grateful that you learned it today, and not ten years from now.  “Doe Zantamata 

“It’s never a good time for bad news, but it’s always the right time for the truth. The longer a lie is held, the more difficult it becomes to reveal the truth. If it’s held a long time, two truths must be told: the original lie, and the reason it was held and covered so many times for so long. One becomes a thousand, and one is easier to forgive, and maintain trust, than many. Revealing is painful, but sooner is always easier, less painful, and better than later. “Doe Zantamata 

“If someone asks you to do more and you have a big reaction inside, it may be a sign that you’re already doing too much. Even strong, independent, hard-working people have limits and deserve to rest. Doing your best is a wonderful thing, but doing all you possibly can for as long as you possibly can will eventually lead to burning out and feeling unappreciated by the people around you. “Doe Zantamata 

“The more you see your own worth, the less you care about the opinions of people who don’t value you much, and the more you are able to appreciate those who do. “Doe Zantamata 

“Building, or rebuilding, self-worth after the break up of a damaging relationship starts with stopping the negative thoughts of the one who is no longer there, and thinking positive thoughts of the one who still is…you. “Doe Zantamata
