I was doing some mindless twitter surfing just after lunch today, and I stumbled upon a gold mine. I love the thread that followed this tweet:
and here’s some of the answers that really resonated with me…
If you don’t prioritise your life, someone else will.
When your child wants to have a talk, drop what you’re doing and listen to them.
Only take advice from someone you’re willing to switch places with.
Pay attention to what they do, not what they say.
Don’t complain about what you permit.
The best thing you can do is the right thing. The next best thing you can do is the wrong thing. The worst thing you can do is nothing.
Sometimes the best thing you can do is nothing
Run
Don’t ask why the addiction, instead… ask why the pain.
and… Be humble enough to do what you can until you have the strength to do what you want.
What’s the best advice you have ever received?
If you are interested in my answers, I have a couple of posts that are big lists of lessons that I have learnt from others: 17 Daily Personal Habits for a Fulfilling Life and The Complete Guide to Personal Habits: 158 Positive Reflections on Life
What is your answer? I’d love to hear it in the comments below 😉
