From a Prevention suppliment called " A Happier Life Made Easy":
CHOICE: "Choice is the father of freedom and the voice of the heart. Having no choices or options leads to depression, anxiety, and the condition called learned helplessness. Anyone can choose the course of their life, but only happy people do it."
PERSONAL POWER: Personal power has two components: taking responsibility and taking action. It means realizing that your life belongs to you and you alone, then doing something about it.
LEADING WITH YOUR STRENGTHS: When you take the path of the intellect and spirit, you naturally begin to focus on your strengths (rather than weakness) and start to solve your situation.
