Comparisons steal our ability to be mindful in the present moment. When you are comparing, you are judging. Observing and describing differences doesn't mean you have to assign a status of better or worse. Enjoy the differences. www.oakheartcenter.com 630-570-0050

We look around for an adult, and sometimes no one is there, or we realize that we ARE the adult. Persist, continue to persist, even when things feel or seem hopeless. Choose to dare greatly. Reach out for help. www.oakheartcenter.com 630-570-0050
Sometimes, losing yourself happens a little at a time. Other times, it happens all at once after a significant life event. However it happens, that matters less than the action plan to get back on track with finding yourself again. Core value identification may be a good starting point. What are your values, and how do your behaviors align with those values? www.oakheartcenter.com 630-570-0050
