The past

"The past is our definition. We may strive, with good reason, to escape it, or to escape what is bad in it, but we will escape it only by adding something better to it." - Wendell Berry

Kind words....

"Kind words do not cost much. Yet they accomplish much." - Blaise Pascal

You can never underestimate the positive effect a compliment or a couple of
nice words can have on someone. It can literally make their day or even
their week.

Go on, make someone's day! Either today or tomorrow go out of your way to
say something nice to a friend, work colleague or family member. See how
they react and also notice how good it feels.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Is there any better advise in life?

Six months....

If you only had six months to live, what would you do with it?

Think about what you would do in the next six months, if you thought you might not get another six months after it?

Who would you make up with?
Where would you go?
Who would you go and visit?
What would you start?
What would you finish?
Who would you say "I love you" to?

We each have 100% of the rest of our lives left. But the fact is, whilst we have 100% of our time, we don't know how much time there is.

What are you tolerating???

What are three things you are tolerating that you could eliminate this week?

We get what we settle for in life. By getting rid of what we don't want in our lives, we make way for things we do want. We free up time, energy and reduce frustration.

So what's getting on your nerves that you can sort out or and drop?

Why waste time tolerating things you don't have to???

Life is only so long after all!
