and here are the life enhancing tips, summarised:
- Take a 10-30 minutes walk every day. And while you walk, smile.
- Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day. Sleep for 7 hours.
- Live with the 3 E's : Energy, Enthusiasm, and Empathy. Play more games.
- Read more books than you did last year. Drink plenty of water.
- Eat more foods that grow on trees and plants and eat less food that is manufactured in plants.Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a beggar.
- Make time to practice meditation, and prayer. They provide us with daily fuel for our busy lives. Dream more while you are awake.
- Smile and laugh more.
- Try to make at least three people smile each day. Don't waste your precious energy on gossip.
- Don't do negative thinking about things you cannot control. Instead invest your energy in the positive present moment. Spend time with people over the age of 70 & under the age of 6.
- Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.
- Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does. Forget issues of the past. Don't remind your partner with his/her mistakes of the past. This will ruin your present happiness.
- Realize that life is a school and you are here to learn. Problems are simply part of the curriculum that appear and fade away like algebra class, but the lessons you learn will last a lifetime. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.
- Don't compare your life to others'. You have no idea what their journey is all about. Make peace with your past so it won't spoil the present.
- Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends will. Stay in touch.
- Forgive everyone for everything. What other people think of you is none of your business.
- However good or bad a situation is, it will change. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.
- Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need. The best is yet to come.
- No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.
- Don't over do. Keep your limits.
- Your inner most is always happy. So be happy. Do the right thing!
- Call your family often. Each day give something good to others.
