    Money won't make you happy but you'll waste a lot time chasing it anyway.

    Social media erodes self esteem.

    Self worth decides everything, the company we keep,the path we take...if you never believe in yourself and have a healthy measure of it...you'll sink.

    Looks decide very much how you are treated

    When it comes down to it, you're on your own.

    We suffer not from the events in our life but from our judgements about them.

    Don't nourish your fears more than your hopes.

    Doubt kills more dreams than failure ever will.

    It's not about how you look , it's how you treat people.

    Trust your instincts. Judge a book by it's cover unless unless you've got instincts that indicate otherwise.

    Save money and don't buy into 'credit cards'.

    Don't follow the crowd unless it's an opinion you though of yourself all by your lonesome.

    Health is wealth. Health is not superficial, it's notabout you're outward look, it's what inside that matters, literally.

    You can take your money with you, but it will just rot in the grave like you do.

    Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

    Don't waste a second regretting.

    Plans don't work out.

    What people think of you is none of your business.

    Have a plan B if you are the creative type.

    Very few people are worth your time, cherish the few who are.

    Work to live, not live to work.

    Don't sweat the small stuff.

    Is that not 3 different ways of saying the same thing??

    That my mum and dad meant well when they gave me advice that I took personal or as an infringement on my judgements.

    Don't take people's opinions personal or get involved with social justice warriors on board's they're into bondage like debate's, always tying themselves up in knots and tempting you to try to untie them and then they tie you up in knots and it's the same **** over and over...

    Vanilla all the way for me so I prefer to have a discussion based on commonology rather than word salad and nonsense...

    Triggering anyone :)

    First things first

    If it is not what you know
    It's who you know
    And if it's not who you know
    it's what you know about them

    & remember

    No matter where you go in life
    There will always be at least one little ****e in the corner

    & most importantly

    Work smarter
    Not harder

    Never water a mans whiskey

    Never ask a woman her age

    A wise person once said ..... nothing. So what ever you say, say nathan

    Never put off to tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow ...

    Beware of so called friends who throw rocks at you

    Always never bla bla bla ....

    ALL great advice.

    I’d been about to post... “Trust your instincts. Judge a book by it's cover unless unless you've got instincts that indicate otherwise.” also... I made a big mistake by not doing so, learned the hard way.

    In addition... ALWAYS be your own best friend. Putting your wellbeing and happiness first is paramount to being able to make anyone else happy. Trust that advice from somebody who learned that the hard way.

    That's definitely true about the fish, there's a skill in feeling the flyline and listening to the rythm of the river.
