Good reminders

Today I am home alone but got to go over to pick up the picture Mandy asked me to frame. This is a birthday present for her and can't wait to give it to her. It is a little bigger than I anticipated so I hope I  won't have any problems carrying it on the plane. 

I supposed to be preparing my Relief Society lesson but instead I am surfing the internet to find something I can give the women in my ward to remember my lesson. I like to give them some treats or a little favor that has to do with the topic. As I am looking through posts I found this quote that I think is a great reminder: 

Live beneath your means.

Return everything you borrow.

Stop blaming other people.

Admit it when you make a mistake.

Give clothes not worn to charity.

Do something nice and try not to get caught. 

Listen more; talk less.

Every day take a 30 minute walk. 

Strive for excellence, not perfection.

Be on time.

Don't make excuses.

Don't argue.

Get organized.

Be kind to people.

Be kind to unkind people. 

Let someone cut ahead of you in line. 

Take time to be alone to ponder on your life.

Cultivate good manners.

Be humble.

Realize and accept that life isn't fair.

Know when to keep your mouth shut.

Go an entire day without criticizing anyone. 

Learn from the past.

Plan for the future.

Live in the present.

Don't sweat the small stuff. It's all small stuff.

I think I could write a chapter about everyone of those reminders. Today I will work on Take time to be alone to ponder on your life. 

Con amor,

Vero
