Live beneath your means and within your seams Return everything you borrow Donate blood Stop blaming other people Admit it when you make a mistake Give all the clothes you haven't worn in the last three years to charity Every day do something nice and try not to get caught Listen more; talk less Every day take a 30-minute walk in your neighborhood Skip two meals a week and give the money to the homeless Strive for excellence Be on time Don't make excuses Don't argue Get organized Be kind to kind people Be even kinder to unkind people Let someone cut ahead of you in line Take time to be alone Reread a favorite book Cultivate good manners Be humble Understand and accept that life isn't always fair Know when to say something Know when to keep your mouth shut Don't criticize anyone for 24 hours Learn from the past, plan for the future, and live in the present Don't sweat the small stuff.
