Make everyday your birthday party by unwrapping your own gifts. Most people have gifts they haven’t even discovered yet. You have talent, skills, intelligence and especially interests that you aren’t aware of. Start assuming you have abilities that you haven’t discovered, or given yourself credit for and start looking for them. Day after day, more research comes in proving that most people have much more intelligence than they use. Also, the new field of Emotional Intelligence, has shown the people have strengths in far more areas than just math or English. You have a much higher level of abilities than you imagined or give yourself credit for. Work from the assumption that you are smarter and better at things and stretch yourself into new areas and see what happens. Each time you will discover something, and I guarantee you will, you can say “happy birthday” to yourself and consider yourself lucky to have received a gift that will last the rest of your life.
