Someone sent this to me today and I thought with a few changes it could be a great handbook for the New Year !!! So I'm posting it to share and I will come back at the end of this year to see how I've done !!!
HANDBOOK 2010
Health:
1. Drink plenty of water, Sonic doesn't count !!!!!
2. Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a beggar.
3. Eat more foods that grow on trees and plants and eat less food that is
manufactured in plants.
4. Live with the 3 E's -- Energy, Enthusiasm and Empathy.
5. Don't stress about things you can't change.
6. Play more games with those you love.
7. Read more books than you did in 2009.
8. Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day.
9. Sleep for at least 7 hours.
10. Take a 10-30 minute walk daily. And while you walk, smile.
Personality:
11. Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is
all about.
12. Don't have negative thoughts. Instead invest your energy in the positive
present moment.
13. Don't over do. Know your limits.
14. Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.
15. Don't waste your precious energy on gossip.
16. Dream more while you are awake!!!
17. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.
18. Forget issues of the past. Don't remind your family members about their
mistakes of the past. That will ruin your present happiness.
19. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone. Don't hate others.
20. Make peace with your past so it won't spoil the present.
21. No one is in charge of your happiness except you, when you wake up every
day choose to be happy no matter the circumstance.

part of the curriculum that appear and fade away like algebra class but the
lessons you learn are forever.

37. The best is yet to come!!!!!!!

every blessing that is yours!!!!
