HOW TO MAKE THE MOST OUT OF YOUR LIFE

• Try to take the positive things in your life and use them to your advantage. Don't paint yourself into a corner. Keep as many options open as you can. 
• Sleep at least 6-8 hours per night. It takes you unconscious mind at least that long to straighten you out.
• Put work no higher than 5th on your priority list.
• Do something worthwhile for someone else at least once per day.
• Never hand feed an alligator.
• Read a lot. Fiction, non-fiction, poetry. Give up the dime-store novels and check-out isle tabloids. They only clutter up your mind with nonsense.
• Never take the advice of anyone claiming to know "the truth" or "the way." It will either screw you up or you will end up screwed.
• Give yourself a break. You're going to make mistakes. The best you can hope for is they won't be fatal.
