LIFE BOOK 2009 =)

Sorry, I know this was a forwarded email, but I LOVED it & thought we could all use the reminder. =D Health:
  • Drink plenty of water
  • Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a beggar
  • Eat more foods that grow on trees and plants, and eat less food that is manufactured in plants & factories
  • Live with the 3 E's -- Energy, Enthusiasm, and Empathy
  • Make time for prayer
  • Play more games
  • Read more books than you did in 2008
  • Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day
  • Sleep for at least 7 hours
  • Take a 10-30 minute walk every day ---- and while you walk, SMILE !!
Personality:
  • Don't compare your life to others'. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
  • Don't have negative thoughts about things you cannot control. Instead invest your energy in the positive present moment.
  • Don't over do, keep your limits
  • Don't take yourself so seriously, no one else does
  • Don't waste your precious energy on gossip
  • Dream more while you are awake
  • Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need...
  • Forget issues of the past. Don't remind your partner with his/her mistakes of the past. That will ruin your present happiness.
  • Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.
  • Make peace with your past so it won't spoil the present
  • No one is in charge of your happiness except you
  • 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.
  • Smile and Laugh more
  • You don't have to win every argument.. Agree to disagree.
Community:
  • Call your family often
  • Each day give something good to others
  • Forgive everyone for everything
  • Spend time with people over the age of 70 & under the age of 6
  • Try to make at least three people smile each day
  • What other people think of you is none of your business
  • Your job won't take care of you when you are sick.. Your family and friends will. Stay in touch.
Life:
  • Do the right things
  • Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful
  • God heals everything
  • However good or bad a situation is, it will change
  • No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up!
  • The best is yet to come
  • When you awake alive in the morning, thank God for it
  • Your inner most child is always happy. So, be HAPPY!!!!!!!
