These life lessons have gone viral over that past decade.
Written by Regina Brett on her 50th
birthday these universal lessons are relatable to anyone who needs a little
reminder of what’s important in life.
1. Life isn’t fair, but it’s still
good.
2. When in doubt, just take the next
small step.
3. Life is too short to waste time
hating anyone.
4. Don’t take yourself so seriously.
No one else does.
5. Pay off your credit cards every
month.
6. You don’t have to win every
argument. Agree to disagree.
7. Cry with someone. It’s more
healing than crying alone.
8. It’s OK to get angry with God. He
can take it.
9. Save for retirement starting with
your first paycheck.
10. When it comes to chocolate,
resistance is futile.
11. Make peace with your past so it
won’t screw up the present.
12. It’s OK to let your children see
you cry.
13. Don’t compare your life to
others’. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
14. If a relationship has to be a
secret, you shouldn’t be in it.
15. Everything can change in the
blink of an eye. But don’t worry; God never blinks.
16. Life is too short for long pity
parties. Get busy living, or get busy dying.
17. You can get through anything if
you stay put in today.
18. A writer writes. If you want to
be a writer, write.
19. It’s never too late to have a
happy childhood. But the second one is up to you and no one else.
20. When it comes to going after
what you love in life, don’t take no for an answer.
21. Burn the candles, use the nice
sheets, wear the fancy lingerie. Don’t save it for a special occasion. Today is
special.
22. Overprepare, then go with the
flow.
23. Be eccentric now. Don’t wait for old age to
wear purple.
24. The most important sex organ is
the brain.
25. No one is in charge of your
happiness except you.
26. Frame every so-called disaster
with these words: “In five years, will this matter?”
27. Always choose life.
28. Forgive everyone everything.
29. What other people think of you
is none of your business.
30. Time heals almost everything.
Give time time.
31. However good or bad a situation
is, it will change.
32. Your job won’t take care of you
when you are sick. Your friends will. Stay in touch.
33. Believe in miracles.
34. God loves you because of who God
is, not because of anything you did or didn’t do.
35. Whatever doesn’t kill you really
does make you stronger.
36. Growing old beats the
alternative – dying young.
37. Your children get only one
childhood. Make it memorable.
38. Read the Psalms. They cover
every human emotion.
39. Get outside every day. Miracles
are waiting everywhere.
40. If we all threw our problems in
a pile and saw everyone else’s, we’d grab ours back.
41. Don’t audit life. Show up and
make the most of it now.
42. Get rid of anything that isn’t
useful, beautiful or joyful.
43. All that truly matters in the
end is that you loved.
44. Envy is a waste of time. You
already have all you need.
45. The best is yet to come.
46. No matter how you feel, get up,
dress up and show up.
47. Take a deep breath. It calms the
mind.
48. If you don’t ask, you don’t get.
49. Yield.
50. Life isn’t tied with a bow, but
it’s still a gift.
