Every individual has a place to fill in the world and is important in some respect, whether he chooses to be so or not.

Set trouble aside

Set all the troubles aside for a moment. Remind yourself that those troubles do not define you.

The problems are real, present, persistent. Yet no matter how messy, complicated, dangerous, or numerous the problems may be, they do not have to overwhelm you.

Difficulties may run deep. Fortunately you are deeper, by orders of magnitude.

Living in you is great and diverse substance, ability, wisdom, reason, experience, creativity and so much more. You are dynamic, adaptable, passionate, fueled by love and driven by purpose.

View life from the perspective of all you are. If anything seems overwhelming, it’s because you’ve temporarily forgotten what you’re capable of doing.

So now, let yourself remember all the good you can do. Now, step forward, face the world with justified confidence, and get it done.

— Ralph Marston
