Simple Formula For Living

I have been doing a lot of cleaning lately, actually it is one of my goal’s this year – clean out the clutter in my life.  While doing so, I came across this “Simple Formula For Living.”  I’m not sure how long I’ve had it, or where I originally got it, but it is worth sharing.

  • Live beneath your means.
  • Return everything you borrow.
  • Stop blaming other people.
  • Admit it when you make mistakes.
  • Give clothes not worn to charity.
  • Do something nice and try not to get caught.
  • Listen more; talk less.
  • Every day take a 30 min. walk.
  • Strive for excellence, not perfection.
  • Be on time.  Don’t make excuses.
  • Don’t argue.
  • Get organized.
  • Be kind to unkind people.
  • Let someone cut ahead of you in line.
  • Take time to be alone.
  • Cultivate good manners.
  • Be humble.
  • Realize and accept that life isn’t fair.
  • Know when to keep your mouth shut.
  • Go an entire day without criticizing anyone.
  • Learn from the past.  Plan for the future.
  • Live in the present.
  • Don’t sweat the small stuff.
  • It’s all small stuff.

Make it a great day!
