Strategies of Success; Valentine's Day

“If I could give you one gift, I would give you the ability to see yourself as I see you so that you could see how truly special you are.”

This entry is from a daily sheet I would give my students on Valentine's Day. I thought it was worth sharing with all of you since when it somes to romance, we're all kids at heart!

Some thoughts on Valentine’s Day
For those of you that have a special Valentine, be sure to use their best style to show them you care. If they’re visual – make sure you give them something they can see – a gift and a card. If they’re auditory – make sure you tell them how you feel about them. If they’re kinesthetic – make sure you hug them or hold their hand so they’ll feel how you care for them.

For those of you who don’t currently have a special someone, Valentine’s day can seem difficult. Just because you don’t currently have a special Valentine does not mean someone special doesn’t care about you. You might not have found out yet. Maybe they’re too shy to let you know.

This might be a good time to imagine what you want that special person to be like. Many people have found the person of their dreams by writing their vision. Maybe you could use this Valentine’s Day to describe in detail all the qualities you’d like and wouldn’t like in the person who will someday share your life.

Another thing to consider. It might be better being on your own than being in a bad relationship. Spend the day focusing on who you have in your life rather than who you don’t have.

This might be a good time to remember how strong we really are and how much we appreciate all the people in our lives, not just our sweetheart. Take a minute today to tell the people in your life how much you care about them and how lucky you are that they are in your life. This might include your parents, your brothers and sisters, your grandparents, your friends, maybe even your teachers?

How about the people in the military? Maybe it’s a good day to write a letter to soldier. Give it a try…I can promise you it will change your day in ways you can’t even imagine!

And have a wonderful Valentine’s Day!
