6. Take Care of Yourself

7. Create Abundance in All Areas of your Life

Create reserves in you finances, relationships, family, and work life. Living with the belief that there is always enough creates abundance and eliminates scarcity thinking and lack.

If people know what to expect from you and you from them, there are no hurt feelings and you won't have to play the blame game.

9. Rid Yourself of the Attitudes of Others

10. Recognize and Respect your Intuition
