PERSONAL REFLECTIONS FROM THE EPISODE'S AUTHOR

  • We can't love ourselves if we don't take some time each day to get to know ourselves alone.

  • Sadness offers us the opportunity to reflect on everything that brought us fleeting joy.

  • If you want good advice for your daily life, ask the love that hopes all things, endures all things, believes all things, and suffers all things.

  • Those who live a life of fulfillment feel free from the fear and insecurity of not being accepted by those tormented by the envy they feel when they see in others the authenticity they themselves will never possess.

  • Don't let your family and so-called friends ever decide who you associate with.

  • We unnecessarily cling to the superficial and ephemeral aspects of life to fill our inner emptiness.

  • Living in the now should be our goal.

  • It is essential to understand life and its failures as a learning experience.

  • An attitude of judgment and criticism will overshadow an attitude of gratitude.

  • Breaking out of imposed molds can mean paying the price of social isolation to be fully free.

SELF-ASSESSMENT EXERCISES

  • Practice daily gratitude, starting with the small details of everyday life that we consider normal and to which we usually ignore.

  • Reflect on events in your past life about which you worried unnecessarily, without being able to change the course of events.

  • Do you consider it justifiable to give up associating with certain people in your work, social, or family life who may negatively influence your personal growth? And if so, would you be willing to give up the supposed benefits that these relationships could bring you in exchange for being true to your principles?
