DO IT FOR YOURSELF

Needing validation 
An attaboy or two
You come across so needy
Need to change your attitude.

They’ll be plenty of naysayers
In the peanut gallery
Pay no attention to them
They don’t pay your salary. 

Let them talk and gossip
You’ve got better things to do
Become a better person
Take better care of you. 

Don’t need someone’s opinion
To make or break your day
Stand up and do things for yourself
Reject the things they say. 

Be confident, more self assured 
Take the initiative 
Don’t give in to self remorse
Don’t be so negative. 

Mental blocks and obstacles 
Banish from  your mind 
Cast aside all self doubt
Be positive this time. 

Stop looking for approval
Just hold  your head up high
Don’t need a pat on your back
Don’t let life pass you by. 

Use your inner strength and faith
No need to ask for help
You can make it on your own
Just do it for yourself.
