I came across the following rules for being human some time ago and thought you'd find it useful for reflection on your own life, in line with the blogs I have been posting since the beginning of the new year:
You will receive a body. You may like it or hate it, but it will be
yours for as long as you live. How you take care of it or fail to take
care of it can make an enormous difference in the quality of your life.
You will learn lessons. You are enrolled in a full-time school called
Life. Each day you are presented with opportunities to learn what you
need to know. The lessons presented are often completely different from
those you think you need.
There are no mistakes - only lessons. Growth is a process of trial and
error and experimentation. You can learn as much from "failure" as you
can from "success".
A lesson is repeated until it is learned. A lesson will be presented to
you in various forms until you have learned it. When you have learned
it (as evidenced by a change in your attitude and behavior), then you
can go on to the next lesson.
Learning lessons does not end. There is no stage of life that does not
contain some lessons. As long as you live, there will be something more
to learn.
"There" is no better than "here". When your "there" has become a
"here", you will obtain another "there" that will again look better
than your "here". Don't be fooled by believing the unattainable is
better than what you have.
Others are merely mirrors of you. You cannot love or hate something
about another person unless it reflects something you love or hate
about yourself. When tempted to criticize others, ask yourself why you
feel so strongly.
What you make of your life is up to you. You have all the tools and
resources you need. Remember that through desire, goal setting and
unflagging effort. you can have anything you want. Persistence is the
key to success.
The answers lie within you. The solutions to all of life's problems lie
within your grasp. All you need to do is ask, look listen and trust.
You will forget all this; unless, you consistently stay focused on the
goals you have set for yourself, everything you have just read won't
mean a thing.
