Confidence isn't about being confident but acting confident. Act confident and life will be a lot easier.

Slow is smooth and smooth is fast.

Leave it better than you found it.

Goes for your home, your neighborhood, or something you've borrowed. It can be applied to the planet, the beach, the trail, the car, the job.

Hell, it even goes for people. Leave them a little happier, a little wiser, a little more prosperous than before.

Second rule, give people the benefit of the doubt and don't attribute an action as the person. Did they cut you off on the road? They're having a bad day and made a mistake. They're speeding? Maybe they are on the way to see a loved one without much longer to live. Don't call someone an asshole just because they made an asshole move. People are so much more than that one interaction with them.

Think before you speak, I speak without thinking and it's got me in trouble for petty things. Using WE over YOU is extremely valuable.. even when you had nothing to do with the problem it is OUR problem.

Be kind

Get a VPN and pirate everytime!

No-one has ever said on their deathbed, "I only wish I worked more"

Hydrate. Stick to water.

Identify the true problem before trying to find a solution

If everywhere you go smells like shit, check your shoes.

Evaluate how much something matters based on 1 day, 1 month, 1 year.

I.E. How upset should you be over [Thing]? Will it matter in one day? One month? One year? That helps perspective a bunch. You can use any variation of time really, the point is perspective

Do not, and I can't stress this enough! Put your dick, in crazy..

Corporations aren’t your friend. Avoid the publicly-traded ones seeking quartely profits the most. If it isn’t a massive burden, find an alternative—avoiding some is better than none.

Listen or act like you're listening. People love the validation that comes with being given undivided attention. The opposite is also true.

You need to sleep.

If you find yourself in a hole, first step is to stop digging.

It's okay to ask for help.

If you don't have time to do something right what makes you think you have time to do it twice?

Respect other people's time. When dealing with a busy person in a professional context;

• Emails should be as short as possible while still conveying the needed information, don't make a busy person excavate the relevant info from somewhere near the middle of the fifth paragraph.
• Whenever possible phrase a question in a way that can be answered in one word.

Every failure is a success, if you learn from your mistakes

Never take time for granted - expect you'll have less of it than you want or need.

It can really help with getting priorities straight - whether that's with work or with your personal life. Where is it exactly you want to spend the most valuable and limited resource you have? Your time?

Everything in moderation; including moderation.

Sometimes good enough is good enough.

Brush your teeth and floss

Treat others as you would like to be treated

EDIT: AS NOT ARE. Fucking autocorrect

Don't be an asshole.

Form your opinions critically, don't easily judge.

If it sounds too good to be true - it probably is.

People are more helpful if you're nice to them.

Take your time, slow and steady is faster than quick and dirty

Never tie your finances to that of a crazy person.

Money is not the only medium of exchange.

Never talk to the police. They are not there to help you.

Don't eat the yellow snow

Anyone who wants to tell you what is right and what is wrong does not have your best interests at heart, they have their own.

Nothing lasts. It goes for good days, but also bad days.

never tell the whole truth

This is dumb, and in many cases outright illegal.

If you are giving testamony in court you are required to tell the whole truth regarding the situation.

There are absolutely other times when you should tell the whole truth, so this statement is just dumb.
