* Stop pretending. To care, if you don’t. To be happy, if you aren’t. Stop.

* Find something you love doing and do it, every day. No matter what.

* Give. Give. Give. Don’t think about getting back. As soon as you stop thinking about what’s in it for you, you’ll be showered with everything you ever wanted.

* Some people aren’t worth it. You’ll know the ones. Create lasting bonds with people who are worth it and fleeting moments with people who aren’t. It’ll change your life.

* We are not all born equal. Use that to your advantage.

* Helping yourself is by far the easiest and most efficient way to help others.

* Move on. Get over it. Build your bridge. Don’t forget. Hell, don’t even forgive. Just move on.

* If you constantly accept ridicule - from a workmate, a “friend”, anyone - then you most probably deserve it. If you constantly turn the other cheek then you deserve to be slapped. Grow some balls (whether you are a man or a woman) and stick up for yourself.

* Inspiration is something you create. You don’t have to wait for a moment to strike. Stop stalling. Start creating.

* Excuses are the tiny threads that keep many things going for much longer than what they need to - careers, friendships, conversations, plans, goals - if it’s not happening, it’s never going to. Wake up. Put your effort into something else.

* Try and pinpoint exactly why it is that you want to impress people that don’t give two hoots about you. Impress the people that care about you. That love you. F#@k the strangers.

* Don’t be afraid to stop. Breathe. Meander. Stroll. Cruise. Fiddle. What’s the rush?

* Some people won’t ever understand you. Either because they can’t wrap their minds around you, or they aren’t willing to. Their loss.

* We all have our own way of doing things. No one person has the best method. Be patient. It’s the key.

* Allow yourself to get swept up in things - no matter how silly or daggy or dorky they may seem. Don’t think you are too cool for anything. You’re not.

* The more you do, the more you’ll want to do. Choose to do things that have merit. Motivation is a powerful side-effect of ‘more you do = more you want to do’. Addiction is a hop, step and a jump away. Watch that line.

* Try and learn something every day. It’s surprising how many people don’t.

* You actually don’t have to accept people for who they are. Some people aren’t wonderful or lovely or nice or friendly, so why accept them?

* Choosing sides is never easy, but it’s much better than always sitting on the fence.

* If you aren’t always honest with others, it’s a shame. If you aren’t always honest with yourself, it’s a tragedy.

* You may not always be able to change your situation, but you can always change your attitude.

* Self-indulgence is the bed that many, many great things were consummated in. That doesn’t mean you get to act like a dick. Be self-indulgent. Use it. But don’t let it take over you.
* You are, by far, the most powerful person in your life. Think about it.
