1. Live A Life of No Regrets - I know its not easy when you are face with many choices, but a life with no regrets is when you live it for yourself and not for others and not based on what others say.
Whatever choices we make in life there will be consequences. The good consequences will enrich us and help us grow, the bad consequences may destroy us and also hurt others. Choose your choices wisely. Don't do things that you may regret for the rest of your life.
2. Do Good Deeds - Do good and help people when you can because the person you helped might return your help when you need it the most one day. But not do good and expecting something out of it. Just do good without expectations and without wanting any returns and not because u hv to but because you want to.
3. Open Your Mind - We sometimes have a certain ways of doing things and sometimes we do not want change to come and upset our comfortable life. Do try to open your mind to new things and new ideas, etc. Only when we free our mind will we be able to experience new things and grow from the experiences.
4. Open Your Heart - Be real and genuine to people around you, treat people with respect and don't take people for granted. When you open up your heart to people, those who can see your good qualities and don't mind your bad qualities are those people you can call them friends. Even when you had been played out by your so call friends, dun be mad at them, because it is their lost not your lost.
5. Protect yourself - Do no harm to others, but you must also learn to protect yourself. Be it emotionally or physically. Learn from your failures as it will help you to be stronger. Protect yourself implies that you must know when to put up your guard and when to let it down and these are things which will come from good and bad experiences learned.
6. Look Inwards - Happy or sad it's just a state of mind. No one other than yourself can get yourself out of feeling down or bad. All it takes is for you to change your mindset. You will succeed in affecting change only when you want it bad enough.
7. Think Positively - Not everyday can be a happy day. So when things gets you down, don't take it out on others or on yourself. Let it go. Because tomorrow will be another day. Yesterday has gone. Your positivity will attracts positive things.
8. Manage Your Expectations - When you do something, always manage your expectations. If good things happens, its because of the effort you put in. Even if good things didn't happen, it's ok too. Just do better next time. The bigger the expectation, the greater the disappointment. Sometimes, its not the end result but the process that helps you to grow.
9. Manage your Emotions - We all have feelings, things which happened can affect us, but if you look at it from different perspectives, you will be surprised how it can help you see things in a different light and maybe even understand things better.
10. Learn from Experience - The more things we experience, the better we are when we do it the next time round and the wiser we will become with each experience learned.
11. Embrace Challenges - Don't run away from it or avoid it, embrace it. Sometimes, these challenges are there so that we can learn about our strengths and weaknesses. Once we had overcome the challenges, we can conquer our weakness. Even if we fail, it means we need to look at our weaknesses and put in more effort to be better next time round.
12. What Defines You - You are defined by who you are as a person and not by material things or your physical outlook. People like you because of your personality, character and all those internal traits, not your physical appearance nor your financial status. But that does not mean you neglect your external appearance, although they are of secondary importance.
13. Treat Yourself Well - Treat others good but also treat yourself better. I am not asking you to be selfish or self centered. What I am saying is don't be too hard on yourself when we fail sometimes, because failure is part and parcel of life. You owe it to yourself to treat yourself better and pick yourself up when you are down and move on from the failure.
14. Be Thankful and Count Your Blessing - Life have lots of ups and downs, there will be people whom will cross path which will change your life and or unpleasant things happened, but it helped you to grow to be a better person or effect you enough to be stronger and wiser. Always be thankful to those who helped you grow and always count your blessing that you are safe and healthy.
