DAY 10


This was emailed to me today. I really enjoyed it, so I thought I would pass it along. It is important to keep a good balance in life.

HANDBOOK 2011

Health
: 

1.       Drink plenty of water. 
2.       Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a beggar. 
3.       Eat more foods that grow on trees and plants and eat less food that is manufactured in plants. 
4.       Live with the 3 E's -- Energy, Enthusiasm and Empathy. 
5.       Make time to pray. 
6.       Play more games. 
7.       Read more books than you did in 2
010. 
8.       Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day and just think.
9.       Sleep for 7 hours. 
10.     Take a 10-30 minutes walk daily. And while you walk, smile. 

Personality
: 

11.    Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about. 
12.    Don't have negative thoughts or things you cannot control. Instead invest your energy in the positive present moment. 
13.    Don't over do. Keep your limits. 
14.    Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does. 
15.    Don't waste your precious energy on gossip. 
16.    Dream more while you are awake. 
17.    Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.. 
18.    Forget issues of the past. Don't remind your partner of his/her mistakes from the past. That will ruin your   present happiness. 
19.    Life is too short to waste time hating anyone. Don't hate others. 
20.    Make peace with your past so it won't spoil the present. 
21.    No one is in charge of your happiness except you. 
22.    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. 
23.    Smile and laugh more. 
24.    You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree...

29.    Try to make at least three people smile each day. 
30.    What other people think of you is none of your business. 
31.    Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends will. Stay in touch.

33.    Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful. 
34.    GOD heals everything. 
35.    However good or bad a situation is, it will change..
