Here are a few that stand out for me.
1. I have learnt that Pride is a fickle thing and can steal precious time, so always take a moment to say sorry and to reflect on the past so you can appreciate the present. 2. Money is like water, there will be spells of drought and times of floods. So spend it wisely and NEVER let it become your ruler.
3. Don’t rush to get to your destination because you may just miss the views and lessons on the road. In the detours i have learnt some of my greatest lessons yet.
4. Take the time to fall in love, its value is greater than we give it credit for and in it lies many lessons about life, sacrifice and devotion that cannot be taught in books.
5. Scream when you must, cry when you have too and laugh as much as you can because the older we get the more we realise how serious we once were.
6. As cliché as it may sound, the moment is all there is. The worries, lists and plans for the future are all distraction that hinders us from fully living. So throw them out and cease the moment, you might be amazed at where it leads you.
7. Be comfortable in your own skin; it’s the only one you have so embrace the curves, love what you have and the rest shall follow.
8. Regardless of what behavioural science say you can’t motivate people, the best you can hope for is to inspire them to act based on your actions.
9. There are great joys of this world that do not cost a cent so don’t take them for granted; to me they are reading a good book, taking a long walk, having an engaging conversation, getting lost in the smell of the ocean or a breathtaking sight and of course a good hug.
10. Failures are the stepping stones to success, without them their will have been no trials so do not let your fears stop you from trying.
I know that life has many more lessons to teach me and I look forward to embracing them all, one day at a time.
