A little bit of flirting is good for you
 
 
Accept that it's "just their nature"
 
 
Accept with the same grace that you give with
 
 
Aim for further than you wish to go
 
 
Always thank people
 
 
Always trust your instincts
 
 
Answer the question that you know is being asked
 
 
Appreciate what you have rather than worry about what you don't have
 
 
Ask yourself what the reasoning is behind what you are doing
 
 
Be honest
 
 
Be more impulsive
 
 
Be open to criticism
 
 
Be spontaneous every now and then
 
 
Concentrating on the positives helps their impact to grow
 
 
Counteract routine dictating your actions
 
 
Don't accept your weaknesses - address them
 
 
Don't dwell too long on failure
 
 
Don't let annoyances fester - understand and address them instead
 
 
Don't believe all that you hear
 
 
Don't expect more from others than you give of yourself
 
 
Don't fear making yourself vulnerable
 
 
Don't manipulate through words or actions
 
 
Don't mock the dreams of others
 
 
Don't put others down to further yourself
 
 
Don't stay in attitudes or places that aren't positive
 
 
Encourage people
 
 
Even if you don't get your own way, be gracious
 
 
Everyone is worth meeting at least once
 
 
If people don't appreciate you or what you do, then walk away from them
 
 
If people don't respect you, it may be because you have done nothing to earn their respect
 
 
If somebody chooses who to be nice to, then they are not nice
 
 
If somebody doesn't like you, it may be their issue
 
 
If you are doing things to impress others, then you are doing them for the wrong reason
 
 
If you don't like somebody, you don't have to mention it
 
 
If you don't know where you are going, at least enjoy the journey until you find out
 
 
If you find something annoying in somebody, look at yourself for the same characteristics
 
 
If you have a task that you don't like, then get it out of the way
 
 
If you lose your temper, then you also lose your focus
 
 
Intolerance comes from arrogance
 
 
Invite experience and embrace adventure
 
 
It doesn't matter if you fail, as long as you tried
 
 
Judge on merits - not against your own laws
 
 
Just because you expect something, doesn't mean that it should happen
 
 
Just because you want something, doesn't mean that you deserve it
 
 
Justice is not your responsibility
 
 
Keep confidences
 
 
Keep your head up and look around
 
 
Know where fact ends and fiction begins
 
 
Life always starts from now
 
 
Look at what you are being criticised for before putting too much value into it
 
 
Look into people's eyes
 
 
Make extra time to do the things that make you happy
 
 
Many things are none of your business - recognise them
 
 
Motive is more important than the outcome
 
 
Patience, patience, patience
 
 
Pay attention to your surroundings
 
 
Pretending to be something doesn't make it so
 
 
Remember names
 
 
Respect yourself and others
 
 
Revenge doesn't address the issue
 
 
Saving something for a special occasion limits the potential of now
 
 
Say what you mean
 
 
Share your enthusiasm
 
 
Show what you are feeling
 
 
Smile and enjoy the reaction that it returns
 
 
Stay 5 minutes longer than you want to
 
 
The world moves at it's own pace, so don't get frustrated because it's pace is different to yours
 
 
There are many injustices in the world - minimise their impact
 
 
Try not to react whilst emotional
 
 
We decide whether something is good or bad. Make it good
 
 
What is happening to you is only happening to you
 
 
You are only number one on your own list of priorities
 
 
You aren't reacting to others - you are reacting to how others react to you
 
 
You can listen without giving an opinion, answer or resolution
 
 
You can't fight every battle, so choose them wisely
 
 
You can't always control what happens to you, but you can control how you react to it
 
 
You don't have answers - you have opinions based upon what you know up to this time
 
 
You have no idea what somebody else is going through
 
 
Your value to others is their calculation
