1. “I have important talents and gifts.”
2. “I want to (and will) find ways that I can use myself in service of others.”
3. “I know what I’m intrinsically worth, and I use that knowledge to buoy me, despite what’s presented in the moment.”

5. “I know I’m not perfect, and that’s ok.”
6. “I course-correct when I become negative, despairing, and lose hope.”
