7. Accept no "should" or "ought" other than your own.
  We must assume responsibility for our rules, mores
and behaviors.

yyyyou should be more positiveeee

8. Take full responsibility for your actions,
feelings and thoughts.
  This is the essence of maturity in Gestalt thought.
We must stop blaming other people and situations.
We must take full advantage of our autonomy and
the choices that exist in a given situation.

IIII choose to blame society   
     for making me wear a maskkkk

9. Surrender to being you as you are.
   Accept yourself for who you are and what you are.
Not for what you and others think you "should" be.

yyyyou should just beeee

cccchange comes about when you become what you are, not when you try to become what you are notttt
