    COT:

    Always Do Your Best – Your Best is Changing All the Time

    Your best will depend on whether you are refreshed in the morning or tired at night. Your best will be different when you are happy as opposed to upset, or healthy as opposed to sick. Under any circumstances, simply do your best , and you will avoid self-judgement, self-abuse, and regret.

    COT:

    We all hear about managing your time. Instead, we need to focus on managing ourselves.

    We all have the same amount of time.

    We don’t manage time, we manage what we do within time.

    YHC is trying to not use the “I’m busy” excuse, whether it’s true or not. Instead, YHC is working towards better managing what is done within the time.
