*Not sure who forwarded this to me, but worth sharing CHEERS!*

Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day. Buy a lock if you have to.

Live with the 3 E's -- Energy, Enthusiasm, and Empathy.

Frame every so-called “disaster” with these words: "In five years, will this matter?"
(There is always a ‘cooling period’ for disasters, it’s the matter of time to let it go)
Forgive everyone for everything.
(Let’s practise this now!)What other people think of you is none of your business. (It’s their mouth and their thinking… be good, do good and everything will be good)

You only have one ride through life so make the most of it and enjoy the ride.
Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully.

Talk slowly but think quickly.
(I do both quickly ohh la laaaa)
When someone asks you a question you don't want to answer, smile and ask, 'Why do you want to know?'
(Can we say, “Pergi la lu!”)
