10 Simple Ways to Save Yourself From Messing up Your Life
TIPS
Tags: life, advice, top 10
Here's some great advice from lifehack.org on how to make the most of life.
| 1. | Stop taking so much notice of how you feel Only your actions are under your direct control and they are the only proper cause of pleasure or shame. |
| 2. | Stop worrying so much, as it only makes things worse The more you think about something bad, the more likely it is to come true, so think positive. |
| 3. | Ease up on the internal life commentary If you want to be happy, stop telling yourself that you're miserable. |
| 4. | Ignore your inner critic Whatever you achieve, someone will always do better and however bad you are someone will always be worse. So, don't waste time judging yourself or others. |
| 5. | Stop feeling guilty Guilt may make you feel you’re accepting responsibility, but it can’t produce anything new in your life |
| 6. | Stop worrying about what the rest of the world says about you Nasty people can't make you mad and nice people can't make you happy; you decide to act on emotions that arise because of these people. |
| 7. | Stop keeping score There is nothing useful about charting your life by numbers that are silly in the first place. |
| 8. | Don't be concerned that your life and career aren't working out the way you planned Planning is only useful as a discipline to force people to think carefully about what they know and what they don’t. Once you start, throw the plan away and keep your eyes on reality. |
| 9. | Don’t let others use you to avoid being responsible for their own decisions To hold yourself responsible for someone else’s success and happiness demeans them and proves you've lost the plot. |
| 10. | Don’t worry about about your personality. You don’t really have one Personality is a word for the general impression that you give through your words and actions. If your personality isn’t likeable today, don’t worry. You can always change it. |
