  21. #009: The Philosophy of Being "Cool" & "Attractive"

    Let's get real and get our facts straight for a second.

If you really want to...

  22. #008: The Power of Letting Go

  25. #005: Respect Your Uniqueness

    Perfectionism is cool and all but the thing about it is that you don't gain anything positive about it nor will you ever feel comfortable living with perfectionism.
