4. Fast from low self-esteem, pessimism, and negativity. Be positive in your outlook on life.
5. Fast from discouragement.

7. Fast from lethargy. Have enthusiasm for life.
8. Fast from the problems that overwhelm your life and wear you down. Pray and ask Jesus for help.
9. Fast from complaining. When you're about to complain, try to appreciate all the moments of joy.
10. Fast from too much self-concern. Put yourself in the shoes of other people.
11. Fast from any resentments or bitterness.Forgive those who have hurt you.
12. Fast from conversations that are negative or filled with gossip. Encourage one another.
13. Fast from spending too much money. Reduce your spending by 10 percent and have your family give the savings to the poor.
14. Fast from too much of the world. In Lent, try togive extra time to Jesus.
