Carlin: take your average person… half the world is dumber than that. (Or something to that effect)
do what’s right for you, it might hurt in the short term, but it will be worth it in the long term (this goes for most things…FOMO, parties, relations, job offers, school offers)
Don’t smoke. my father is dying…it’s not cool.
Eat right, exercise regularly. It takes time, your fitness won’t appear overnight (it takes months).
Brush your teeth and more importantly, floss/use picksters. Don’t eat sweet things 2 hours before bed.
Everyone’s different (so take what I say with a pinch of salt, the above might not be for you)
Some mistakes can screw up the rest of day. Some mistakes can screw up the rest of your life. Try to avoid making the former, but avoid making the latter at all costs. Hard drugs, an extramarital affair, drinking and driving.Think the consequences through before you do these things.
Copying one of my favourite (and last saved) comments from Reddit:
The most precious commodity we have is our time on this planet, and we have far less of it than we realise. The time we choose to spend together is a gift we give to each other.
Appreciate the gift of their precious commodity that they give you, don’t expect more than they are willing to give, but don’t squander your precious resource with someone who doesn’t appreciate your gift.
