    Life tips.

    Just stumbled upon this. Thought I would share it with everyone.

    Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully.

    Memorize your favorite poems.

    Don't believe all you hear, spend all you have or sleep all you want.

    When you say, "I love you", mean it.

    When you say, "I'm sorry", look the person in the eye.

    Be engaged at least six months before you get married.

    Believe in love at first sight.

    Never laugh at anyone's dreams.

    Love deeply and passionately. You might get hurt but it's the only way to live life completely.

    In disagreements, fight fairly. No name calling.

    Don't judge people by their relatives.

    Talk slow but think quick.

    When someone asks you a question you don't want to answer, smile and ask, "Why do you want to know?"

    Remember that great love and great achievements involve great risk.

    Call your mom.

    Say "bless you" when you hear someone sneeze.

    When you lose, don't lose the lesson.

    Remember the three R's:

    ----Respect for self,

    ----Respect for others,

    ----Responsibility for all your actions.

    Don't let a little dispute injure a great friendship.

    When you realize you've made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it.

    Smile when picking up the phone. The caller will hear it in your voice.

    Marry a partner you love to talk to. As you get older, the conversational skill will be as important as any other.

    Spend some time alone.

    Open your arms to change, but don't let go of your values.

    Silence is sometimes the best answer.

    Read more books, watch less TV.

    Live a good, honorable life. Then when you get older and think back, you'll get to enjoy it a second time.

    Trust in God but lock your car.

    A loving atmosphere in your home is important.

    Do all you can to create a tranquil harmonious home.

    In disagreements with loved ones, deal with the current situation. Don't bring up the past.

    Read between the lines.

    Share your knowledge. It's a way to achieve immortality.

    Be gentle with the earth.

    Pray. There's immeasurable power in it.

    Never interrupt when you are being flattered.

    Mind your own business.

    Close the eyes when you get a kiss.

    Once a year, go someplace you've never been before.

    If you make a lot of money, put it to use helping others while you are living. That is wealth's greatest satisfaction.

    Not getting what you want is sometimes a stroke of luck.

    Learn the rules, then break some.

    In a good relationship is the love for each other greater than the need for each other.

    Judge your success by what you had to give up in order to get it.

    Your character is your destiny.

    Approach love and cooking with reckless abandon.

    "Judge your success by what you had to give up in order to get it."

    By far the most profound line in there.

    With coarse rice to eat, with water to drink, and my bended arm for a pillow - I have still joy in the midst of these things. Riches and honors acquired by unrighteousness are to me as a floating cloud.
