Hello fellow Associates!
Ok, here's the project: We are making a book of Life Advice. This is basically me asking each of you to give the best, most positive advice they can. Words that would help another person. The only rule is to be real and be positive. Words that will help people live better, be better, or get through tough times. Yes, this is a very positive project! :)
We want advice from the heart. Just like turning to a friend and speaking. Words that will keep them going.
After we get a whole bunch of quotes from a whole bunch of people, I will self-publish this as a book. The idea behind this project is to help people. To be a book that someone picks up -- and they feel better for having read it. God willing. :)
Paul

"Dieing is for suckers"
"Life is a risk, Without risk, there is no life!"
"When life hands you lemons, ask who life gave alcohol to and make a good drink"
All by me.

Thanks bro. We are looking for advice from the heart, more like a conversation. Just like talking to a friend. :)

"Life is a risk, Without risk, there is no life!"
But I like this one. With your permission, I'll put it in the book. :)

My advice is that we should all should strive to be the best that we can be and do not settle for what everyone else tells us is what we are worth.If you do not have a plan for your life you will fall into somebody elses plan, and guess what they have planned for you is not very much.

I know...but it's hard to say advice when there is no one around with a problem to give advice to. So I tried remembering what I told some people...and those were the first that came to mind. Anyways, go for it. Would be sweet if I had my quote in a book.
Taj.

Thanks greenvalley, good stuff. Cool Taj, you're in there. Hi hails, we're looking for "words from the heart" instead of "sayings". Just a few sentences as if you were advising a friend, or just telling them "keep going, I love you, it's worth it." :)

Hi jdajif, we're looking for advice from the heart. More like what green valley gave. There are already a lot of books of "sayings", but we want something more real. :)

YOu are what you think. if you think you are old and miserable, you are. It is all about your thoughts, and YOUR choices. It is you who has to live your life, no one else. It is you who wake up in the morning to start another day of YOUR own life. It is a gift, it is yours to do with it what you will. Let no other factor, person, or anything shoot down your dreams, or make you chose your choices differently. The life you live is yours, the outcome is made by you. You are the one sitting at the control panel, there may be some things you can not control but you merely have to let these go. Thinking in a postive, and more happy way will ultamitely change your life. Your outlook on life will change for the beter. So remember you are what you think, and the life you live is YOURS, do with it what you will. YOU ARE IN CONTROL

There is one thing you should ask yourself before you start to panic about something small. "Will this matter a year from now?" That paper that you didnt hand in on time, the cup you broke this morning, the weeds that you didnt pull out of the garden when you said you would, well, "will they matter a year from now" ask yourself that. I, a victim of anxiety disorder, have to work at the hard task of keeping your mind calm and free from worry. When I ask myself, will this matter a year from now? The answer is always no, and that simple answer is a breath of fresh air my friend. Worrying is literally not good for your healh, worrying gets you no where, only just more crazy. Worrying about the things you cant control will only worry you more knowing that you cant control them. You have to let these go, simply tell yourself that these thoughts, I wont let them bug me anymore. Or as some people like to do is write there worries down on paper and then simply throw them away. There is a saying I have come across that I belive is very true, "Worrying is like a rocking in a rocking chair, it gets you no where" Worrying will hurt your health, dont get me wrong everyone worries to some extent but excessive worrying will not be very nice on your body. When a lover doesnt call when he said he would, or your mom didnt come home when she was supposed to, dont worry, and dont dont DO NOT, think of the worst case scenario, that will only worry you more. THE MOST WONDERFUL THING IS POSITIVE THINKING, IT WILL TAKE YOU PLACES. It will make your life a life worth living
