- Be Kind To Others
- Don’t Let Little Things Get to you – nobody got time for that!
- Don’t go to bed mad at the one you love – Resolve, figure it out and move on!
- Take care of your health – whether that means the gym, a daily meditation, coffee with friends. Take care of yourself!
- Keep good friends around – we go through many different friendships and relationships all at the exact moment that we should. But make sure you keep those special to you around. Call them!
- Find a community – find a place you belong and love to show up every day
- Eat good food – don’t fill your body with crap. It’s not going to help you. Ever.
- Drink the good wine – don’t hold on to bottles too long! Wine is meant to be drunk, not shown off.
- No one is perfect – we all make mistakes, we all do things other people may not like. That’s ok.
- Move to a new city – make new friends, get out of your comfort zone, try something different.
- Try out a new skill – I always had one skill for the longest time, it’s challenging and fun to try something new.
- Karma – I always said Karma is a bitch. Because sometimes it can be! What goes around comes around, so be kind.
- Stand up for yourself – If you truly believe in something and somebody challenges you, stand up for yourself.
- Don’t get mono – it totally sucks. Don’t do it.
- Own a pet – Having a dog has been one of the best things I’ve done for myself. He’s my buddy, my companion, and damn cute. He makes me a happy human!
- Explore your town – get out and go do something you haven’t done yet. Even if its trying a new restaurant.
- Dark green vegetables are good for you, so eat them.
- Sign up for a race that terrifies you and then get it done.
- Be honest – nobody likes a liar. Being honest let’s people know who you are and spreads the good chi.
- Buy clothes and shoes that make you happy. And comfortable! Who cares if it’s black yoga pants. You do you!
- Go on lot’s of dates – how are you supposed to know who you belong with if you don’t know what you like?
- Tell your parents you love them – Being a parent is hard, make sure they know how much you appreciate everything they have done for you.
- Call your mom – don’t make her worry about you.
- Go to concerts – lot’s of them. Nothing is better than live music. Just bring ear plugs so you don’t go deaf later in life.
- Go to a major sporting event- is there anything more inspiring?! Olympics, Olympic Trials, NCAAs, whatever! Just go.
- Try food that’s totally new to you. You might end up loving it! For me that’s brussel sprouts. Just wish it had a different name.
- If somebody is being mean to you, walk away. Your time isn’t worth it. You have better things to do.
- Raise good human beings – self explanatory. There future depends on it.
- ENJOY LIFE – we only get it one time. Have some fucking fun while you’re at it!
- Trust your gut – you know in your heart what is right. Listen to yourself, choose your path, go with what works for you.
