Found a very interesting book called

It's Never Too Late

by Patrick Lindsay

to know your worth

Nobody knows us like we do

Allow others to assess your worth.

But only if you respect them and their ability.

Back your own judgement.

Take a dispassionate look at yourself

Don't ignore the down sides.

But don't mark yourself too hard.

Don't underestimate yourself.

or be cowed into discounting yourself

Value yourself.

And others will do the same

To love your work

Sometimes it's inspiring.

Sometimes it's monotonous.

Usually it depends on our attitude.

Look for the positives.

Every job has its own nobility.

Give your work the respect it deserves.

And you'll gain respect in return.

To make plans

Looking ahead takes you out of the daily grind

Planning ahead brings hope

Small plans first,with realistic goals.

Build confidence.

Then make bigger plans with bigger goals.

Always have plans.

To make your own decisions

Take advice.

Seek information.

Draw on others' experience.

Confirm your views.

But make your own choices.

Set your own course.

Be responsible for your own life.
