If you're trying to achieve something or completing a task, something as simple as patting yourself on the back makes you feel a lot better. For example I try building a website and a lot of times I just don't want to do the work. If I setup a header or write a paragraph, I tell myself "great job for writing 1000 words" and I go off to pop open a can of sprite (my favorite soda). While I know this was about validating others, this is about how to validate yourself still so to those who are struggling, try validating yourself and treating /rewarding yourself for something in addition to what this video said (great video btw, very inspiring!), even if it's something "small" because something is ALWAYS better than nothing at all.

As they say, people become addicted to your attitude. If only we could stay happy with ourselves and remember that through it all, its all about being happy, truly happy. Hell, and if we can't, then at least we can make someone else sport a grin :) Great Video! As they say, people become addicted to your attitude.
