A Few Things I've Learned In 34 Years

3/1/2017

  • Have a firm handshake
  • Sometimes when one door closes, you hope it's in a panic room with a broken lock.
  • Watching Jerry Springer will immediately make you feel better about your life.
  • Don't hit people unless you are absolutely sure that you can run faster scared than they can mad.
  • Your heart never runs out of love, even if it breaks a few times.
  • A subscription  to Dictionary.com is worth it, it's free.
  • One step forward and one step back is also known as the Cha Cha.
  • It is just as easy to trip going up the stairs as it is going down them.
  • People will treat you the way you allow them to treat you.
  • Anything is possible with the right attitude and a sledgehammer.
  • Don't say hurtful things to or about yourself. You hear yourself more than you hear anyone else talk. If you wouldn't let someone else speak to you that way, why on earth would you do it to yourself!!
  • Always look for the silver lining. Life will test you in ways you haven't even imagined yet but no matter how bad it gets you can find one good thing if you try hard enough.
  • Spend your time with people you can be unapologetically yourself with. People who genuinely want to understand you, those that will always  give you the benefit of the doubt.
  • Make time for your friends, I haven't always been good at this and I have lost some really great friends because of it and once that connection is severed it is really hard to course correct.
  • Don't just fight to win. Fight if you have to defend yourself, fight to find common ground but fighting just to win is usually a losing battle regardless of the outcome.
  • When someone has a positive impact on your life, tell them about it. So often we are inspired or motivated by someone but how often do we let them  know how much of an influence they had on us?
