- Take time to know yourself. "Know thyself" said Aristotle. When you know who you are, you can be wise about your goals, your dreams, your standards, your convictions.
- A narrow focus brings big results. The number one reason people give up so fast is because they tend to look at how far they still have to go instead of how far they have come.
- Show up fully. Don't dwell on the past, and don't daydream about the future, but concentrate on showing up fully in the present moment.

Feb 19, 2023 · We asked experts what life advice they keep on steady rotation. Here are 10 tried-and-true tips from therapists, career coaches and writers.
- “Reject your sense of injury, and the injury itself disappears.” If you refuse to accept that someone has injured or offended you, the injury itself ceases to exist (except perhaps in the minds of others).
- “No one but you gets to decide how much you can handle.” No one else can tell you how much energy you have or how much more you should be doing with the energy you have.
- “Those who pass judgment on you reveal more about themselves than about you.” Some people will look for reasons to hate you or to write you off as a bad person or unworthy.
- “Accept whatever comes to you woven in the pattern of your destiny, for what could more aptly fit your needs?” Truly happy people aren’t those who never experience pain or suffering.
- Your life is your responsibility. Please read this carefully, taking in each and every word: There is one person and one person alone over whom you have control in this life—and that is yourself.
- The way someone treats you is a reflection of how they feel about themselves. That cross look? Not about you. That snide comment? That temper tantrum?
- Life is all about managing expectations—most of all your own. The world will expect many things from you. And you will expect many things in return. The key is to manage its expectations of you—and yours of it.
- When you know better, do better. Maya Angelou once said, “Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better.” Frequently cited by Oprah as some of the best advice she’s ever received, this quote serves as a reminder of a simple truth: We’re all figuring out this thing called life as we grow through it.
- You have the opportunity to make a difference in the world and in yourself. Make the day meaningful. Waking up Every morning you are given another chance to think about your purpose in life.
- Breathe your way to a calmer, healthier, happier life. Breathing. You do it all day but unless you’re a regular meditator, yogi, or tri-athlete, you probably don’t pay much attention to your breath.
- Start the chain reaction of positive tasking. Make your bed. If you’re a neat person, making the bed is something that’s easy for you. But if you are the type of person who rushes out the door at the last minute, making the bed is the last thing you think about.
- Most things are not as bad as you think they are. Washing the dishes. Did you know it takes only one minute to wash a pan, two knives, one fork, a cutting board and a bowl?
