If I could give you two lists, they would be as follows.
Things to never worry over …
Don’t worry about …
Dust on your trophies. They’ll soon
be put away.
Winning. It will soon be forgotten.
Losing. It will soon be
forgotten.
Don’t worry about …
The past. It is past.
Popular opinion. It changes
daily.
Getting cut off on the freeway.
Don’t worry about …
Losing your hair
Not having tan lines
Pimples
Don’t worry about …
Losing your eyesight. Just keep your insight.
Always being right. Always be
kind instead.
Don’t worry about …
The weather. It will change soon.
Labels. They don’t become true
unless you believe them.
People getting ahead of you at work
Instead ... Think about these ...
Think about …
Leaving good footprints large and direct for others to follow
Leaving a good legacy
Relationships and their importance
Think about …
How to show more love
The words you speak and their impact on others
Think about …
How to make things better
Becoming a citizen of the world-focus outward
Making someone’s day brighter
Think about …
Calling your parent, grandparents, or siblings
Sending a note of appreciation
Think about …
Being kind to a retail sales person
Picking up a piece of trash without being asked
Think about …
Telling your grandchildren stories of your childhood
Showing up on time
Rubbing your mates back
Now that's enough advice to last us a lifetime
In closing, I’ll add this.
As Garrison Keillor is fond of saying on Farmer’s Almanac …
“Be well, do good work, and keep in
touch.”
