28 Rules Of Life by tojahh(m): 8:06am On Nov 06, 2014
28 Rules of Life...
Rule #1. Life is not fair — get used to it!
Rule #2. Eat an elephant, but one bite at a time.
Rule #3. To better your lot, you have to be a lot better.
Rule #4. If you have a friend, learn to talk to each other instead of about each other.
Rule #5. True love isn’t Romeo and Juliet who died together, it’s Grandmom and Granddad who grew together.
Rule #6. Life is not a movie. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to work.
Rule #7. Be nice to nerds. Chances are you’ll end up working for one.
Rule #8. Never give up on something you really want. It’s difficult to wait, but more difficult to regret.
Rule #9. If you can’t get someone off your mind, they are probably supposed to be there.
Rule #10. Be yourself. No matter how hard you try; you will fail trying to please everyone.
Rule #11. Never be a prisoner of your past. Be the architect of your future.
Rule #12. Don’t wait for a perfect moment. Take the moment and make it perfect.
Rule #13. Recognize there is a huge difference between failing at something you do and being a failure as a person.
Rule #14. Worrying does not empty tomorrow of its troubles, it empties today of its strength.
Rule #15. If finding a perfect person is what will make you happy, then you will never be happy.
Rule #16. Never make a permanent decision on temporary feelings.
Rule #17. You can make the world better by making your life better. Remember, “we are the world”.
Rule #18. In life, there are some people you’ll have to lose in order to find yourself.
Rule #19. Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass… it’s about learning how to dance in the rain.
Rule #20. Be strong enough to stand alone, smart enough to know when you need help, and brave enough to ask for it.
Rule #21. To get ahead, take steps.
Rule #22. Build your own dreams, or someone else will hire you to build theirs.
Rule #23. Listen to people but never lose your voice.
Rule #24. Accept what you cannot change. Change what you cannot accept.
Rule #25. Don’t assume there are no crocodiles because the water is calm.
Rule #26. At times, things have to fall apart before they come together.
Rule #27. If you want to be broke, work for money.
Rule #28. To live a life of enduring significance, you must learn how to set your own rules and follow the course of your destiny.
