Do U Know The 7 Steps of Self Acceptance?

In 1994, a dear friend gave me a book titled "Secrets of Self Acceptance" and I thought it would be nice to share 7 of these 31 Secrets with the membership here at BNW.

The book is written by J. Donald Walters, published by Crystal Clear Publishers and here we go...

Step 1: The Secret to Self Acceptance is..."realizing your uniqueness in the entire universe. No one will ever have your song to sing. Through all eternity it will be yours alone. Your primary task in life is to learn to sing that song to perfection."

Step 2: The Secret to Self Acceptance is..."accepting others, first, as they are. Only then will you be able to accept yourself as you are."

Step 3: The Secret to Self Acceptance is..."not envying others their talents and accomplishments. It is better to even fail in one's own soul-appointed duty than to succeed in someone else's. Once you succeed in being wholly yourself, you will have achieved the most glorious success possible for any human being."

Step 4: The Secret to Self Acceptance is..."not resenting anyone: for by resentment we only belittle ourselves."

Step 5: The Secret to Self Acceptance is..."respecting everyone; for as we are, so do we imagine others to be; and as we view them, so do we oursleves become even more."

Step 6: The Secret to Self Acceptance is..."mixing with those who, in their own expansiveness, offer support to others. Shun the company of those who are cynical or insecure."

Step 7: The Secret to Self Acceptance is..."loving others, and not waiting for them first to love you."

And I'll sneek this one in, as it speaks highly of most members here at BNW...

Step 8: The Secret to Self Acceptance is..."serving others ever-more consciously as an instrument of a Higher Power."

If you like these thoughts, either encourage me to post more of them or invest in yourself by getting the book yourself. It's ISBN # is: 1-56589-043-4
