Life's Little Instructions

Sing in the shower
treat everyone you meet like you want to be treated
Watch a sunrise atleast once a month
Leave the toilet seat in the down position
Never refuse homemade brownies
Strive for excellence, not perfection
Plant a tree on your birthday
Learn 3 clean jokes
Return borrowed vehicles with full tank of gas
Compliment 3 people each day
Never waste an opportunity to tell someone you love them
Leave everything a little better than you found it
Keep it simple
Think big thoughts but relish small pleasures
Become the most positive and enthusiastic person you know
Floss your teeth
Ask for a raise when you've feel you earned it
Be forgiving of yourself and others
Overtip breakfast waittresses
Say thank you alot
Say please alot
Avoid negative people
Buy whatever kids are selling on card table in their front yards
Wear polished shoes
Remember other people's birthdays
Commit yourself to constant improvement
Carry jumper cables in your trunk
Have a firm handshake
Send lots of Valentines day cards and sign them "Someone who thinks your terrific"
Look people in the eye
Be the first to say hello
Use the good silver
Return all things you borrow
Make new friends but cherish old ones
Keep secrets
Sing in a choir
Plant flowers every spring
Have a dog
Always accept an outstretched hand
Stop blaming others, take responsibility for every area of your life
Wave at kids on school buses
Be there when people need you
Feed a strangers parking meter
Dont expect life to be fair
Never underestimate the power of love
Drink champagne for reason at all
Live your life as an exclamation not an explanation
Dont be afraid to say I made a mistake
Dont be afraid to say I dont know
Compliment even small improvements
Keep your promises no matter what
Marry only for love
Rekindle old friendships
Call your mother
Count your blessings
