Take on life

· Enjoy the here and now of each day. Try not to look back and cling to the past. Nostalgia is acceptable but not living in the past!
· Regard each day as the last day of your life and live it to the fullest. Make sure you are doing what you enjoy doing, with no reservations, inhibitions or regrets!
· Don’t put off what you want or need to do…procrastination may be thy name, but hey you might not have a tomorrow to procrastinate towards!
· Don’t wait for opportunities to come to you and don’t let go of them when they do reach you! Search, Grab, Experience and then take a Decision!
· Never lose touch with people who have touched your life in a positive way. Friends, family, acquaintances, mentors… Lose touch with them and you find that you gradually lose touch with yourself.
· Always take on as much as you can do. Added pressure might work as a positive stimulant under some circumstances, but if you feel overwhelmed and over-stressed by what lies ahead, it might be an indicator that you need to slow down or find alternatives to help you out.
· Always listen to people. Listen to what they say as well as to what they don’t. The latter might actually be more significant!
· Communicate! Referring to the previous, your unsaid may not always be heard!
· Do not take anybody for granted. Everybody has something to contribute.
· If you believe strongly in positive and negative vibes, better to stay away from the negative vibes rather than attempting to handle them!
· Find your areas of interest, and don’t wait any longer to finding the means to pursue them!
· Misunderstandings and fights, necessary evils of any relationship…just make sure they don’t fray the fabric of the relationship! Always try and target fights towards the problem itself and not towards the other person!
· Take good care of yourself. Gorge at times, but mostly eat right! Find your favourite means of exercising your body and relaxing your mind. You would want to still be able to walk, eat and think when you are older right!
· Don’t take things too seriously…find humour in everything you come across. Helps to have somebody who thinks that way too, with whom you can laugh your head off!
· Love and respect yourself and you will find that others love you a little more! However, there could be that thin line between loving oneself and self-obsession!
