- Make up your
mind to be happy.
- Learn to find
pleasure in simple things.
|
- Make the best
of your circumstances.
No one has everything and
everyone has something of sorrow intermingled with the
gladness of life. The trick is to make the laughter
outweigh the tears. Don't take yourself too seriously.
|
- You can't
please everybody; don't let criticism worry you.
|
- Don't let your neighbours set your standards.
|
- Do the things
you enjoy doing, but stay out of debt.
|
- Don't borrow
trouble.
Imaginary things are harder to bear than the actual ones.
|
- Since hate
poisons the soul, do not cherish enmities and grudges.
|
- Don't hold post-mortems.
Don't spend your life brooding over
sorrows and mistakes. Don't be one who never gets over
things.
|
- Do what you
can for those less fortunate than yourself.
|
- Keep busy at
something.
A very busy person never has time to be unhappy.
