Twelve Don’ts for Living

Twelve Don’ts for Living

1.       Don’t waste time on revenge. It takes energy, but don’t forget it either. The possibility may come along.

2.       Don’t waste time on hate. It takes too much energy.

3.       Don’t cheat your employer. You are paid for the work. Do it well.

4.       Don’t fake it. Only those less intelligent than you will be fooled. At most half of them will believe.

5.       Don’t co-mingle your beliefs with your understandings. They are different.

6.       Don’t gossip. You’ll get a reputation.

7.       Don’t palaver your politics. About half will disagree, but you’ll never know who.

8.       Don’t proselytize. It makes you look bad.

9.        Don’t believe it even though you want to. Check it out.

10.   Don’t shirk responsibility to your family. You made them. You owe them.

11.   Don’t lie to your kids. They sense it and learn to lie back to you. 

12.   Don’t lie to your spouse. They hear you far beyond mere words.
