Believe in your self, and in what you can do.
Through the years as one of the only girls in my family, I struggled with confidence and self esteem issues. Many times being held to the standard of competing with boys instead of girls. However as far back as I can remember, Papa stood to be my constant safe place. As a child, I had NO idea the impact his continued support and guidance would have on my life. There was never a game he told me I couldn't win, and never a goal he didn't believe I could reach.
There is NOTHING worse than a coach who seems to only be capable of dictating, many of the lessons Papa taught me over the years were interactive and I had no idea I was being taught. No matter what the score board looked like or what the weather forecast said...my Granny and Papa were at every little league baseball game, graduation, and school event. And NOT just for me, but for all 26 grandchildren at that time.
Your support system is vital to success, hold close the values and morals that have been instilled in you throughout your life. No matter the tragedy remember those who have dedicated their lives to investing in your future.
Your relationship with your family, friends and significant others is too precious that you must not neglect it whatever happens. Go out and have fun with them. Do things together. Happiness will never fly from your side as long as the people who matter the most are close to you.
In the end, using people for self-empowerment means becoming a better and more lovable person. It's a win-win situation: the people know they can turn to you anytime and vice versa.
