Rules of Life
Each new day is a blank page in the diary of
our
life.
The secret of success is in turning that diary into the best story we possibly can.
ACCEPT YOURSELF
Life is for living, enjoying the sunshine. Decisions determine destiny, create your own sunshine. Fall in
love with taking care of yourself.
SMILE
A smile is an inexpensive way to improve your looks.
Everyone you meet deserves to be greeted with a smile. The most beautiful smile belongs to those who make others smile.
BE HAPPY
There is no beauty without
happiness. Allow yourself to enjoy each happy moment in your life.
BE KIND
You have the power to
make people feel good. Be kind to unkind people.
Being a good person is a little like expecting the bull not to attack you because you are a vegetarian.
BE STRONG
If you want to fly, give up everything that weights you down. A bird sitting on a tree is never afraid of the branch breaking, because her trust is not the branch but on her own wings.
DON'T GIVE UP
If opportunity doesn't knock, build a door. If it doesn't work the
first time, find another way. If you can't find a way, make one. Never back
down. If you get tired, learn to rest,
not to quit.
DON'T COMPARE
Everyone's on a different
journey. A flower does not think of competing to the flower next to it. It just blooms. When a flower doesn't bloom, you fix the environment in which it grows, not the flower. If the grass is greener on the other side it's probably getting better care.
AVOID NEGATIVITY
Never go to a doctor whose office plants have died. Negative feelings come from negative thoughts. A negative mind will never give you a positive life;
you can't live a positive life with
a negative mind. Avoid negative thoughts,
situations and people. Live life to the fullest and focus on the
positive.
ATTITUDE
Start each day with a grateful heart. Develop and maintain a good positive attitude. Mental toughness is essential to success. A bad attitude is like a flat tire. You can't go any where until you change
it.
BITE YOUR TONGUE
If you can’t say anything nice,
don’t say anything at all. The tongue
has no bones, but is strong enough
to break a heart.
COURAGE TO
CHANGE
If you do not step forward, you will always be in the same place. If you continue to carry the bricks from your past, you will end up building the same house.
PEACE WITH THE PAST
Don't let yesterday take up too much
of today. Focus on being present
and creating a better future. Make
peace with your past -- so it won't
spoil the present.
HALT
Hungry - Angry - Lonely -
Tired
Take time off. The world will not fall apart without you.
STAY HEALTHY
The best health care plan is a self-care plan. Eat your FOOD as your medicines; otherwise, you have to eat your MEDICINES as your food.
REMEMBER TO TOUCH BASE
Base is where you belong. Base is where you feel comfortable, secure, loved, restored and trusted.
Life is a
DNA software system; a
do-it-yourself project. Life is a lively process of becoming; it is not about finding
yourself; it is about
creating yourself. Character develops itself in the stream of life. Each day is the scholar of yesterday, and can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.
That is what we make it, always has been, always will be.
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated. If the road is beautiful, then worry about destination, but if destination is beautiful, then worry about road. Honor your path
and trust your journey. We know and understand that we have a limited time on earth - and that we have no way of knowing when our time is up, we will then begin to live each day to the fullest.
Brighten up your day, you don’t own all the problems in the world. We are here for
a short visit, and be sure to smell the flowers along the way.
