God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; the courage to change the things I can; and the wisdom to know the difference.

Between what happens to us and our response to it…. …..is our freedom to choose our response

"We who lived in concentration camps can remember the men who walked through the huts comforting others, giving away their last piece of bread. They may have been few in number, but they offer sufficient proof that everything can be taken from a man but one thing : the last of human freedoms - to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstance - to choose one’s own way. Life holds a potential meaning under any conditions, even the most miserable ones.” Frankl, V.

Emotional Bank Account Understanding the individual Attending to the little things Keeping commitments Clarifying expectations Showing personal integrity Apologising sincerely when you make a withdrawal

“That which we persist in doing becomes easier - - not that the nature of the task has changed, but our ability to do has increased.” Ralph Waldo Emerson
