Without confidence, especially when things are not in your favour, you will not be in a position to direct your thoughts, words, and deeds to achieve the next big goal after a downfall. (Commandment 8: Emotionally Draining Distractions)

Your existence should give comfort and peace to everyone. Meeting you should be like a festival- a celebration, a moment to rejoice. (Commandment 8: Emotionally Draining Distractions)
