VALUES
Ask yourself: if there were no rewards or punishments, who would I want to be?
Values are not goals that you check off; they are qualities of living that give meaning to every day. Think of them as directions on a compass. You never “arrive,” but you can always orient yourself toward them. Pay attention to moments that make you feel proud, alive, or deeply connected, because your values are often hiding there.

HAPPY MONDAY!

If you wait to feel ready, you’ll be waiting a long time. Courage means moving even when you doubt yourself. And here’s the trick: every small step you take builds trust in your own ability. Confidence grows out of doing, not the other way around.

Values-guided action feels good each step. This creates confidence.
Daily self-compassion also changes the way we feel about ourselves

Your thoughts often show up dressed as facts, and they sound convincing. But most of the time they’re just stories—some useful, some not. The skill is learning not to buy every sales pitch your mind offers. You can hold them lightly instead.

I like to call these old, unhelpful thoughts, "REPEAT OFFENDERS," or "THE CLASSICS."
Some stories have played over and over in my head for years - especially the famous story so many share, "I'm not good enough."
There is no way I want to treat myself that way.

ACT THERAPY moves you in the direction of living a VALUES-GUIDED LIFE

Both anxiety and excitement make your chest tighten and your heart race. The only real difference is the story your mind tells about it. What if that same feeling of dread could be read as anticipation? Sometimes a shift in perspective is all it takes.
