Excerpts from the book "Sex, Boys & You" by Joni Arredia

To Achieve Your Dreams, Remember your ABCs

Avoid negative sources, people, places, things and habits.
Believe in yourself.
Consider things from every angle.
Don't give up and don't give in.
Enjoy life today: yesterday is gone and tomorrow may never come.
Family and friends are hidden treasures: seek them and enjoy their riches.
Give more than you planned to.
Hang on to your dreams.
Ignore those who try to discourage you.
Just do it.
Keep trying, no matter how hard it seems.
Love yourself first and foremost.
Make room somewhere for letting others in.
Never lie, cheat, or steal: always strike a fair deal.
Open your ehart and you reyes will see things as they really are.
Practice makes perfect.
Quitters never win and winners never quit.
Read, study and learn about everything important in your life, and the world.
Stop procrastinating.
Take control of your own destiny.
Understand yourself in order to better understand others.
Visualize it with a picture perfect mind.
Want it more than anything.
Xcellerate your efforts.
You are unique of all God's creations: nothing can replace you.
Zero in on your target and go for it.
