Notes fromOne Minute for
MyselfSpencer Johnson
I treat myself the way I would like others to treat me
In one minute I can change my attitude And in that minute I can change my
entire day
When I take Good care of myself I feel less angry – toward myself and others
And when I am Happier I work better
and I treat others better.
When I clearly see what is best for me, I usually do it
Our commitment is not to run away from ourselves, but for each of us to
take good care of ourselves and to take good care of one another.
We can Help ourselves and each other by asking “Have you Hugged YOURSELF
today?”
When every person in the world takes better care of themselves, Everyone in the world will feel better taken care of and then we may finally being to care
more about each other.
One thing I do when I get rushed, feel overwhelmed, and lose my perspective
is to ask myself another simple question: “ten years from now, how
much difference is this going to make?”
So when I make a decision – I ask ‘is this a love-filled decision or a fearful
decision?’ Decisions I make based on fear, whether I am aware of it or not, do
not turn out very well for me. When I make a decision based on love (the absence of fear), I feel good – even
before I know the outcome.
One of the best ways I can help other people is to encourage them to take
better care of themselves. And to reward them when they do
When other people take good care of themselves they are happier with
themselves – and with me!
I show you best by example just how good it is for me and for people around me when I stop to take better care of
myself.
Even more important than my being loved is my being loving.
We may have some small conflict now, but we avoid much larger and more
serious conflicts later, when each of us takes better care of ourselves.
