There is nothing new
in what I am saying. Everything I have
said has been said before. The only
thing new is you deciding to change what needs to be changed, and to do it as soon as you
finish reading this page.
The decision to
change may arise out of your brokenness, your loss, your despair, your futility, or a sudden
realization this is what will save you.
Whatever it arises
out of, start living your life according to the laws of “who is better
to be around” and “who is not”, and you will have more company, more friends,
better relationships, and a more fulfilling life.
So where do you begin?
I advise beginning
here.
