1.  Remember that the past is just the past. You can't change the past, but you can do

     something about the present. Everyone has valley experiences. You must decide whether to

     remain in the valley or climb to the mountaintop. 

2.  Love yourself! Love yourself! If you truly love yourself, you will know that you are human

     and to err is human.

3.  View every mistake/poor choice as an opportunity to learn and grow. By growing, you will

     be able to handle similar challenges that you encounter.

4.  Remember, if you hold on to your past mistakes, it will affect your success in the present

     and the future.

5.  Even though you can't see it now, know that this too shall pass.

6.  Know that life is like a winding road. You will encounter twists and turns along the way.

     Know and accept this and choose to keep moving forward.
