Building Self-Confidence with Encouraging Words

Self-Help / Personal Growth / ParentingWords can be deadly weapons or protective layers of love. They can bruise and batter a person, no matter how old, in the heart and spirit just like physical blows can cause damage to the outside of the body. Because these bruises to the spirit are not readily apparent, many think that the damage is easily repaired. However, while verbal abuse may be long forgotten or dismissed by the offender, the words and memory are lodged in the cells and memory of the child or person who was emotionally assaulted.The fear of rejection stops many very talented and skilled people from achieving their full potential in life.

Many times, our actions and reactions in life are felt by people we will never meet, but we plant the seeds of kindness anyway.You will enjoy Judy's approachable manner, wonderful storytelling and common-sense solutions gleaned from working with hundreds of families and organizations just like yours.
