You Are the Mature You Planned by Them

This is where maturity goes wrong for most people.

Most people make crappy parents.

Most people do not shed off the negatives passed down to them by the parents and peers.

Back to the cake bake: it would be like throwing chile peppers and wine into the cake mix.

Let's bake the new you, without those negatives so when we get HERE, to this stage of development, we are not slowed down by emotional garbage, fears, insecurities, lies, whatever has ever weighed you down.

You were TRAINED BY YOUR PARENTS to be like them.

Select the "good" attributes of your parents that you want to emulate and keep them within you BY CHOICE.

Select the "bad" attributes of your parents that you dislike and FILE THEM AWAY WITHOUT EMOTION.

Remember, as long as there is no emotion attached to the memory, it will stay quiet in the file cabinet forever.
