Some I've learned from my family and friends, some I've learned by experience.
*Don't let shiny things in the store make you forget all the perfectly good things you already have at home.
*If you're sorely tempted to buy something you know you don't absolutely need, just remind yourself, "I've lived without it this long. I can keep living without it!"
*If you know you can't resist the temptation to spend money, just don't go in the store.
*Never grocery shop when you're hungry if you can help it.
*Don't worry about being the best. There's always someone better than you and worse than you. The only person you should be competing against is yourself.
*Empty yogurt containers work far better than gladware. Put mismatched lids on top to remember which are leftovers and which is the actual yogurt. :-)
*Always assume the best about people. More often than not you'll be right.
*It's okay to have different opinions and beliefs. Just agree to disagree and we can all be friends.
*If you won't care about it in ten years, don't keep it.
*Starting a friendly conversation with your cashier can make a friend out of an errand.
*Always talk about people as if you wouldn't mind if they overheard what you said about them.
*Live with no regrets if you can.
*If you can make it, don't buy it.
*You can make a conscious decision to be happy no matter your circumstances.
*It takes two people to have an argument. All it takes to get along is one person who decides that the other person is more important than them being right.
