one of those forwards

I received this as an e-mail forward (which I don't generally like) but thought it was a fun list. It was designed as a "live life to the fullest in 2011" guide.

Health:
  • Drink plenty of water. 
  • Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a beggar.
  • Eat more foods that grow on trees and plants and eat less food that is manufactured in plants
  • Live with the 3 E's -- Energy, Enthusiasm and Empathy
  • Make time to pray.
  • Play more games
  • Read more books than you did last year
  • Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day
  • Sleep for 7 hours.
  • Take a 10-30 minutes walk daily. And while you walk, smile.
Personality: 
  • Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
  • Don't have negative thoughts or worry about things you cannot control.
  • Don't over do. Keep your limits.
  • Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.
  • Don't waste your precious energy on gossip.
  • Dream more while you are awake
  • Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.
  • Forget issues of the past. Don't remind people of mistakes of the past. That will ruin your present happiness.
  • Life is too short to waste time hating anyone. Don't hate others.
  • You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree...
Society:
  • Call your family often.
  • Each day give something good to others.
  • Forgive everyone for everything..
  • Spend time w/ people over the age of 70 & under the age of 6.
  • Try to make at least three people smile each day.
  • What other people think of you is none of your business.
  • Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends will. Stay in touch.
Life:
  • Do the right thing!
  • Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.
  • God heals everything.
  • However good or bad a situation is, it will change.
  • No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.
  • The best is yet to come.
  • When you awake alive in the morning, thank God for it.
