Words of Wisdom

Always round up when you leave a tip.

When you find yourself doing more to solve someone else's problem than they are doing to solve it, it might be time for you to take a step back.

Forgiveness doesn't mean condoning someone's bad behavior, it just means you aren't going to let the hurt and anger you feel about it take over your life.

Be interested in other people. (This is not the same as being nosey).

Be nice to yourself.

What about you? Any words of wisdom to share?

  1. Yes on taking a step back! Words of wisdom, I like what you said above about being nice to yourself. It sounds so simple but it's very difficult. Pema Chodron's message is the same: unlimited kindness toward yourself. I'm just doubling up on your own words :)

    1. So true. We always put ourselves last and that's not always wise.
