“Trust is as necessary to a happy, healthy relationship as air is to the lungs. With it, a relationship can survive almost anything. Without it, almost nothing. Living in a world without trust is truly painful. When a person says, “trust is something that needs to be earned,” it’s a big sign that this person’s trust was broken one too many times, and they got fed up. Without trust, stories are invented, and drama flows freely. With trust, a person can take people’s word at face value, not read into things negatively, and just be happier. It was not up to you to be lied to, but it is up to you to trust again. ”

“Others will treat you exactly as you treat yourself. Once you love yourself, you will not be able to tolerate poor treatment. You will be able to see that although they may call it love, it’s actually something else. “Do unto others as you’d have done to you” also means “do unto yourself as you would do to others.” If someone is treating you poorly, just don’t allow it. You would not do that to someone else. If they continue, remove yourself from that relationship. They may not even be capable of treating others well, but that you can’t fix. ” Doe Zantamata

“Conserving energy is a good thing. But this is also why belief is the root of all positive change. Unless you believe something better is possible, it makes no sense to devote the energy or effort into making it happen. So all those other things, determination, perseverance, courage….they can’t do their jobs until their leader, belief, steps upfront and center. Before you do anything, set your foundation firm in the belief that great things are very possible and that you are more than able to make them so. ” Doe Zantamata
