9 PRINCIPLES TO LIVE BY

1. Thou shalt not worry, for worry is the most unproductive of
all human activities.
2. Thou shalt not be fearful, for most of the things we fear
never come to pass.
3. Thou shalt not cross bridges before you get to them, for no
one yet has succeeded in accomplishing this. Deal with each problem as it
comes…you can handle only one at a time anyway.
4. Thou shalt not take problems to bed with you for they make
very poor bedfellows.
5. Thou shalt not borrow other people's problems. They can take
better care of them than you can.
6. Thou shalt not try to relive yesterday for good or bad… it
has already gone! Concentrate on what is happening in your life today.
7. Thou shalt be a good listener, for only when you listen do
you hear ideas different from your own. It is very hard to learn something
new
when you are talking.
8. Thou shalt not become bogged down by frustration, for 90
percent of it is rooted in self-pity, and it will only interfere with
positive
action.
9. Thou shalt count thy blessings, never overlooking the small
ones, for a lot of small blessings add up to a big one!
