Can You List A Few Useful Lessons In Life?

Answer Question

7 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    Some of the greatest lessons in life that I've learned are:
    1). Your name is all you really have in this world. Let you name stand for something.
    2). Honesty is the best policy.
    3). Try hard to not let the world overwhelm you nor consume you.
    4). Family is important but don't let them make decisions for you. That power belongs to you.
    5). Live peaceable as much as you can, but there will be times when trouble will find you, so don't run away from your problems. Confront them head on instead of ignoring them.
    6). If you want to be successful, commit yourself to the work at hand and always give more than you get.
    7). You cannot change anyone but yourself.
    8). Children and elders can teach you more than any school.
    9). Take time to smell the roses. Life is short so find joy in the little things.
    10). Don't sweat the big stuff. It has a way of working itself out one way or the other.

      Read Each One Carefully and Think About It a
      Second or Two

      1. I love you, not because of who you are, but because of who I am when I am with you.

      2. No man or woman is worth your tears, and the one who is, won't make you cry.

      3. Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.

      4. A true friend is someone who reaches for your hand and touches your heart.

      5. The worst way to miss someone is to be sitting right beside them knowing you can't have them.

      6. Never frown, even when you are sad, because you never know who is falling in love with your smile.

      7. To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.

      8. Don't waste your time on a man/woman, who isn't willing to waste their time on you.

      9. Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one, so that when we finally meet the person, we will know how to be grateful.

      10. Don't cry because it is over, smile because it happened.

      REMEMBER: WHATEVER HAPPENS,
      HAPPENS FOR A REASON.

        Asking others the "lessons" of life "less-ens" yours.
        It's YOUR life; make your own lessons.
