文档简介
Personal Forgiveness
Taking responsibility for mistakes is a positive step, but don't beat yourself up about them. To err (犯错) is human. __1__ You can use the following writing exercise to help you do this.
In a journal or on a piece of paper, put the heading “Personal strengths.” __2__ Are you caring Creative Generous A good listener Fun to be around They don't have to be world changing, just aspects of your personality that you're proud of.
At the top of a second page, put the heading “Acts of kindness.” On this one, list all the positive things you've done for others. It might be the time when you helped a friend with their homework, when you did the ironing without being asked, or when you baked cookies after the family had had a tiring day. __3__
You could ask a friend or family member to help add to your list. __4__ That way, you could exchange thoughts on what makes each of you special and the aspects of your personality that shine through. In fact, don't wait until you've made a mistake to try this—it's a great way to boost self confidence at any time.
It's something of a cliché (陈词滥调) that most people learn not from their successes but their mistakes. The thing is, it's true. __5__ We're all changing and learning all the time and mistakes are a positive way to develop and grow.

Getting stuck in a rut (刻板乏味的生活) means you're not sure how to go forward or backward. If you think this sounds like you, then you're not alone. The great news is that you can turn things around and get yourself back up in no time. Take a look at the following tips.
Make a Change
The first step to get out of the situation is to identify what it is about the circumstances that is getting you down. __2__. In that case, you should move somewhere else. In other cases, you may hate your job. Rather than simply accepting it as your fate, start looking for new jobs. The idea is to start taking action instead of just being a spectator of your life.
Accept Things as They Are
Once you start taking action to change the situation, then it becomes much easier to accept things as they are. Acceptance doesn't mean you accept that things never change. __3__. Stop allowing yourself to live in denial (否认). Things will be much easier to improve if you acknowledge things as they truly are. You're in a rut, and that's perfectly okay!
Treat Your Body Well
All too often, people don't realize the connection between mind and body. If you're feeling less than being stellar (杰出的) in your mind, then it may have something to do with how you're treating your body. __4__. You may achieve it by doing things like eating well or engaging in more exercise. Treat your body well, and your mind will follow.
__5__
Don't forget the importance of allowing yourself to have some breathing room and a break once in a while. Practice self care by doing things like spending time with friends or having your hair cut.
