Rules for Life

A month or so ago The Bloggess poster her “Rules for Life” and I thought it was a pretty interesting idea for a post. So today I’m going to share with all of you my Rules for Life!

1. Be nice to people. Be extra nice when you want them to help you. Rudeness doesn’t get you anywhere.

 

2. Dance every day.

3. Drink plenty of water.

4. Remember that it’s not always about you; we’re all usually caught up in our own worlds and it’s easy to mistake someone else’s off-putting behavior as a reflection of their feelings toward us, when in reality they may be dealing with something we know nothing about.

5. Say “Yes” to anything involving a costume. Everything is more fun in a costume.

6. Always save time and money for the little things that make you feel better, like new clothes, a pedicure, Starbucks, etc.

7. Smile when you don’t feel like it, eventually your mood will change too.

8. Although it can be hard to tell the difference, or hard to let go, be sure that the people in your life lift you up rather than bring you down.

9. Call your parents. Say thank you every once in a while.

 

10. Wash your face before bed.

11. Always take the risk. It’s better to feel silly, be disappointed or have your heart broken than regret not putting yourself out there.

 

12. Don’t care too much about what everyone else thinks of you. It’s your life, not theirs.

Your turn – add on! What are your rules for life?

  1. #4!! It’s so easy to get offended by little comments people make or someone else’s mood, but I’ve been working on trying to remember that they may just be having a really crappy day/week and it happens to us all. Let it go.

  2. Love the one about costumes…I may already have my Halloween costume picked out 😉

    Life rules:
    1. be polite – being rude accomplishes nothing.
    2. life is short. Eat dessert once in a while.
    3. take risks. Better to say you tried and failed then you didn’t try at all.

  3. Awesome post! The picture of Molly made me chuckle at my desk 🙂 That being said, my rules are:

    Pet as many puppies as possible.

    Remind yourself that even people you can’t stand are probably good at something even if you don’t know what it is.

  4. Loved this post and definitely agree with everything. Today has not gotten off to a good start for me and I needed a reminder to smile. Thanks for sharing.
