Something to think about... (from chubby cheesecake)

  1. Take a 10-30 minute walk everyday, and while you walk, smile.
  2. Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes a day.
  3. When you wake up in the morning, complete this statement: “My purpose is to _______ today.”
  4. Live with the 3 E’s: Energy, Enthusiasm, Empathy; and the 3 F’s: Faith, Family, Friends.
  5. Dream more while you are awake.
  6. Try to make at least three people smile each day.
  7. Realize that life is a school and you are here to learn, pass all your tests.
  8. Problems are simply part of the curriculum that appear and fade away like algebra class but the lessons you learn will last a lifetime.
  9. Smile and laugh more. It will keep the energy vampires away.
  10. Life isn’t fair, but it is still good.
  11. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone. (ITS WORTH IT!)
  12. Don’t take yourself so seriously. No one else does.
  13. You don’t have to win every argument. Agree to disagreements.
  14. Make peace with your past, so it won’t mess up the present. (DAMAGE HAS BEEN DONE)
  15. Don’t compare your life to others’. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
  16. Burn the candles, use the nice sheets. Don’t save it for special occasion. Today is special.
  17. No one is in-charge of your happiness except you.
  18. Forgive everyone for everything. (YEA, EXCEPT HER!)
  19. What other people think of you is none of your business.
  20. Time (PLUS APOLOGY) heals almost everything. Give time, time.
  21. However good or bad the situation is, it will change.
  22. Your job won’t take care of you when you are sick. Your friends will. Stay in touch.
  23. Get rid of anything that isn’t useful, beautiful or joyful.
  24. The best is yet to come.
  25. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up. (TELL THIS TO HER,LOL)
  26. Do the right thing.
  27. Call your family often.
  28. Each night before you go to bed, complete the following statements: “I am thankful for….” “Today I accomplished…”
  29. Remember that you are too blessed to be stressed.
  30. Enjoy the ride. Remember that this is not Disney World and you certainly don’t want a fast pass. Make the most of it and enjoy the ride.
