Let us live so that when we come to die even the undertaker will be sorry.

1. Approve of yourself. — A man cannot be comfortable without his own approval.

2. Your limitations may just be in your mind. — Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter.

3. Lighten up and have some fun. — Humor is mankind’s greatest blessing.

4. Let go of anger. — Anger is an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which it is poured.

5. Release yourself from entitlement. — Don’t go around saying the world owes you a living. The world owes you nothing. It was here first.

6. If you’re taking a different path, prepare for reactions. — A person with a new idea is a crank until the idea succeeds.

7. Keep your focus steadily on what you want. — Drag your thoughts away from your troubles… by the ears, by the heels, or any other way you can manage.

8. Don’t focus so much on making yourself feel good. — The best way to cheer yourself up is to try to cheer somebody else up.

9. Do what you want to do. — Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did so. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
