Dos and don’ts

Care about other people, not about what they think of you. Focus on doing what’s right, not on proving you’re right.

Let happiness be the fuel for your actions all along the way, rather than just a reward at the end. Allow joy to flow out from you instead of expecting it to be given to you.

Create value out of what you have instead of making excuses out of what you lack. Set your goals high but not so high that you fail to act.

Be dependable and reliable without being tedious and predictable. Live fully in the moment today while working to create an even better tomorrow.

Expect the very best while gracefully accepting and dealing with whatever life brings. Think before you act, but don’t let thinking take the place of actions.

Sing your own special song in harmony with all the other songs being sung. Make each moment you inhabit the best for all who are there.

— Ralph Marston
