With all the memories we have of those who have moved on due to war, conflict, terrorism, it is more important than ever to teach and experience peace in our families, schools, and government. It can start with just one person; it could start with you. Here are just a few tips to ignite the flame of self-esteem. If we have peace within our own heart, it can spread to others, person to person, nation to nation, spirit to spirit.
1. Praise - it is the magic word - find the good in someone and give them praise. It is so easy to find the negative and evil in life. Look for the good and Praise it.
2. Appreciation - Create the habit of appreciation - acknowledge the action when you see it. Write a personal note to someone who is in your life telling them how you appreciate them. Tell your children you appreciate their efforts and good behavior.
3. Respect - Listen when someone speaks to you. Give them the respect you would like when you speak. Slow down and pay attention to those around you. Listen without judgment or opinion. Think of that Golden Rule and really put it into play. Treat others as you want to be treated.
Praise, Appreciation, Respect: New tools to raise self-esteem in yourself and others in order to generate a new level of peace in our world. Watch this movie now. It is inspirational and worth your time.
