Words of wisdom

... to make our daily life easier. These are not famous quotations (other than the first one), but stuff I realized myself...

1. "Know thyself "- if you don't, then try to. Because if you yourself don't know what you can do, and what you cannot, don't expect others to do that for you.

2. People around you are not thought readers. So, if you want them to know something about you, you have to take the pain to tell them, explicitly.

3. If you don't know something, ask. We are not supposed to know everything. So question if you are in doubt or need clarification. That solves a lot of problems.

4. Admit it when you are wrong. We are not supposed to do everything correctly all the time, so it's not bad to goof up once in a while. Admit and be done with it. Argue and you drag being goofy.

5. Sit back and relax. Don't be so hard on yourself all the time. It's ok...
Stay happy

6. Forgive. This is the same as letting others have their way once in a while too. The man you just swore at for driving like crazy this morning might be in an emergency. Who knows?

7. Don't judge others. A continuation of the last one. You don't know what's going on with others. So don't judge them according to what you think is right. It just doesn't make any sense.

8. Take a break. From what you are doing and think of happy thoughts. I know it works wonders!

9. Talk to people. Lack of communication causes a lot of misunderstanding. So talk and get your thoughts clear and well understood.

10. Smile. It puts everything straight and surrounds you with an aura of brightness and cheer :)

Very good advices and we all need practising them ourseves including YOU. By the way, the first one ctually means to know exactly 'who you are'.

Who you are - would include everything about one's own self :) Including what his/her strengths and weaknesses are.
