Plenty.

So often, we label others (loved ones included) and ourselves as good or not so good. Whether we actually use judging words or these are mental judgments, these labels build walls and separate us.

If we are judging and condeming ourselves, we only create more of the same if we keep that negative thought going.

If we are judging and condeming others, we only draw more of this negativity to us and the situation only seems to get worse.

So what has to happen when we feel judgment bubbling up in our minds?

What we've discovered is that if judgment comes up, it's a sign that we need to love ourselves at a deeper level. When we do, the situation begins to smooth out and there's a greater ease either with ourselves or with the other person.

We've been entranced by Joe Vitale's new book "Zero Limits: The Secret Hawaiian System for Wealth, Health, Peace, and More." We can highly recommend it because we know that the concept works.

Although we can't begin to explain it here (we invite you to check out the book), it's suffice to say that when we truly start loving ourselves, our lives begin to change for the better. When we try to go it alone and keep ourselves separate from others, we suffer. When we allow others in and open to their love, our lives improve.

Sounds simple but sometimes it isn't.

Today, we suggest that you stop when you start judging yourself or others and open to loving and understanding instead. This doesn't mean that you are a door-mat. Quite the contrary. When you act from love, either for yourself or for others, you are contributing to the love in the world instead of to hate and misery.

We invite you to choose love today.
