Twelve Golden Rules To Enjoy Life

Twelve Golden Rules To Enjoy Life

Someone sent this to me via email and I thought that I should post it here.


1) MAKE UP YOUR MIND TO BE HAPPY. LEARN TO FIND PLEASURE IN SIMPLE THINGS.

2) MAKE THE BEST OF YOUR CIRCUMSTANCES. NO ONE HAS EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE HAS SOMETHING.

OF SORROW INTERMINGLED WITH GLADNESS OF LIFE. THE TRICK IS TO MAKE THE LAUGHTER OUTWEIGH THE TEARS.

3) DON"T TAKE YOURSELF TOO SERIOUSLY. DON"T THINK THAT SOMEHOW YOU SHOULD BE PROTECTED FROM MISFORTUNE THAT BEFALLS OTHER PEOPLE.

4) YOU CAN"T PLEASE EVERYBODY. DON"T LET CRITICISM WORRY YOU.

5) DON"T LET YOUR NEIGHBOUR SET YOUR STANDARDS. BE YOURSELF.

6) DO THINGS YOU ENJOY BUT STAY OUT OF DEBT.

7) NEVER BORROW TROUBLE. IMAGINARY THINGS ARE HARDER TO BEAR THAN REAL ONES!

8) SINCE HATE POISONS THE SOUL, DO NOT CHERISH JEALOUSY,
AVOID PEOPLE WHO MAKE YOU UNHAPPY.

9) HAVE MANY INTERESTS. IF YOU CAN"T TRAVEL, READ ABOUT NEW PLACES.

10) DON"T HOLD POST MORTEMS.

DON"T SPEND TIME BROODING OVER SORROWS OR MISTAKES.

DON"T BE ONE WHO NEVER GETS OVER THINGS.

11) DO WHAT YOU CAN FOR THOSE LESS FORTUNATE THAN YOURSELF.

12) KEEP BUSY AT SOMETHING. A BUSY PERSON NEVER HAS TIME TO BE UNHAPPY.
