Choose an energizing or calming mantra to focus on as you wake up. Reframe challenges as opportunities: Look for ways your current situation, even if difficult, may be preparing you for future growth or enabling you to help others. Build strong relationships: Self-awareness and articulating one's priorities are fundamental in building strong relationships. Cultivate unconditional love: Express love without attaching conditions or reasons. Let others feel deeply valued for who they are, not just what they do Seek purpose in the everyday: Like hospital cleaners who see themselves as healers, find meaning by connecting your work to its positive impact, no matter how small.
