38 plus 1 - Tips for a happier life

July 18th, 2008

1. Take a 10-30 minute walk every day. And while
you walk, smile. It is the ultimate anti-depressant.

2. Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each
day. Buy a lock if you have to.

3. Buy a DVR and tape your late night shows and
get more sleep.

4. When you wake up in the morning complete the
following statement ‘My purpose is to __________
today.’

5. Live with the 3 E’s — Energy, Enthusiasm, and
Empathy.

6. Play more games and read more books than you
did in 2007.

7. Make time to practice meditation, yoga, tai
chi, and prayer. They provide us with daily fuel for
our busy lives.

8. Spend time with people over the age of 70 and
under the age of 6.

9. Dream more while you are awake.

10. Eat more foods that grow on trees and plants
and eat less food that is manufactured in plants.

blueberries, wild Alaskan salmon, broccoli, almonds &
walnuts.

12. Try to make at least three people smile each
day.

13. Clear clutter from your house, your car, your
desk and let new and flowing energy into your life.

14. Don’t waste your precious energy on gossip,
energy vampires, issues of the past, negative thoughts
or things you cannot control. Instead invest your
energy in the positive present moment.

15. 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.

16. Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince
and dinner like a college kid with a maxed out charge
card.

17. Smile and laugh more. It will keep the energy
vampires away.

18. Life isn’t fair, but it’s still good.

19. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.

20. Don’t take yourself so seriously. No one else
does.

21. You don’t have to win every argument. Agree to
disagree .

22. Make peace with your past so it won’t spoil
the present.

23. Don’t compare your life to others’. You have
no idea what their journey is all about.

24. No one is in charge of your happiness except
you.

25. Frame every so-called disaster with these
words: ‘In five years, will this matter?’

26. Forgive everyone for everything.

27. What other people think of you is none of your
business.

28. GOD heals almost everything.

29. However good or bad a situation is, it will
change.

30. Your job won’t take care of you when you are
sick. Your friends will. Stay in touch.

31. Get rid of anything that isn’t useful,
beautiful or joyful.

32. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all
you need.

33. The best is yet to come.

34. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and
show up.

35. Do the right thing!

36. Call your family often (or email them to
death!!!) Hey I’m think’n of ya!

37. Each night before you go to bed complete the
following statements: I am thankful for __________.
Today I accomplished _________.

38. Remember that you are too blessed to be
stressed.

39. Enjoy the ride. Remember this is not Disney
World and you certainly don’t want a fast pass. You
only have one ride through life so make the most of it
and enjoy the ride.
