Advice

What advice do I need to navigate myself successfully? I f I have the advices at the time which I needed most maybe my life will be easier but  would I listen to it.
I asked my friends what advice they would like to pass on to other people. Below is a sampling of the responses.
  • Be kind
  • Be optimistic
  • Be helpful
  • Do things the right way (no shortcuts)
  • Volunteer to help people move
  • Always say thank you
  • Be honest
  • Don’t be afraid
  • Always say I love you
  • Be true to yourself
  • Don’t be afraid of making a fool of yourself
  • Don’t be critical of others

  • I bet there are a great bits of advice out there and there’s a story behind every one of them. That’s why it would be nice to share in this blog…what advice do you want to pass on–to your friends, to family, to future generations? And why do you give that advice? What did you experience in your life that made this particular piece of advice so important to you?

    One day I was shopping with my daughters and there was this lady who thought my daughter cut in front of her and she screamed at my daughter. My daughter was so angry and ready for a battle. I calmed her down and told her that we were here for pleasure and there was no need to be so mad. My parents installed a message in our family:

    "Treat everyone with politeness, even those who are rude to you - not because they are nice, but because you are."

    1. That's right! Always navigate ourself, will make us become better! My mom always tells me to navigate myself and tells me where i should be changed. I also like the message in your family. Sometimes people are rude. But after thinking your message, it makes anger disappear.
