1. Don't worry about what other people think of you.
查看中文翻译
What happened yesterday is over. Those unmet expectations, difficult situations, failures and conflicts are in the past. You can't change it, so let it go. Don't waste your energy dwelling on anger, resentment or disappointment. It only keeps you stuck in the past and holds you back from moving forward in your life.

2. Today is what's important.
查看中文翻译
I used to worry too much what others thought of me, of my decisions and of my actions. Eventually, I came to realize that if you're wasting too much time seeking validation, respect or approval from others, then you won't have time to accomplish all that you desire. Everyone has an opinion, but in reality other's opinions of you are based more on their history and perceptions than anything you're actually doing.

3. Let it go.
查看中文翻译
Enjoy every moment of today, because you are not guaranteed a tomorrow. Don't put off your dreams. Don't wait to do, try, enjoy all of those "someday" items. If it's important to you, then do it today. Pay attention to what is happening now, to the people around you, to the task at hand and to all of the choices you make today, big and small.

4. It's called work for a reason.
查看中文翻译
Success at anything takes work. When you hear about an overnight success story, don't forget about all of the work that came before. You may have to do work you do not enjoy and trudge through the trenches of planning, building, refining, moving up, out, over and redefining before you get to the place where success clicks. Keep going.

5. Believe in yourself.
查看中文翻译
You are your own worst critic, and so can you be your own best supporter. If you do not have confidence in your own value, abilities and contribution, then nobody else will either. You must have faith in your intrinsic worth. We each have something to offer that is necessary and valuable, though we may not know what that something is.

6. Don't burn your bridges.
查看中文翻译
You never know when a former boss, colleague, business partner or acquaintance may come in handy. Try to part on good terms, stay on good terms and never gossip about former connections. Be respectful and open to possibilities. Maintain and foster connections on all levels. Connect others and offer your help to those you know. A wide pool of friends, peers and connections of all kinds will provide a wealthy resource of ideas and support as you go forward in life.

7. Money is not the most important thing.

8. Don't be afraid to stand up and stand out.
查看中文翻译
Money is important. We all have bills to pay, I understand that completely. But in the end, money is not the end goal. Satisfaction in a job well done, contributing to something worthwhile and finding something you enjoy doing are more motivating goals and certainly lend themselves to a happier and less stressful life. Money does not equate to happiness. Money is simply a currency that allows you to eat, dress and live. It is not a magic wand.

Take a stand. Speak up. Stand out from the crowd. If something is important to you, then stand up for it… Never compromise your integrity. If it's not right, say so. Be quirky, be different, be yourself. Don't worry so much about conforming to society's standards or whatever passes for the norm. While I do think it reasonable to be clean, respectful and considerate, I think we place too much emphasis on fitting in and being "appropriate". This is not your grandmother's world. Don't be afraid to be yourself.

9. It's not a race.
查看中文翻译
We have so much to do, so much to accomplish and it feels as though we have to be in a hurry to get there. It is likely that you will live upwards of 80 years. That is plenty of time to fit a whole host of wonderful endeavors into your life. You do not have to do it all at once. In fact, if you try to do it all at once you will, at best not have time to enjoy it and at worst burn out and damage your health and relationships. Slow down and take one thing at a time, one day at a time.

Stay positive. Look for the good in people. Celebrate the happy moments, big and small. Give helpful encouragement rather than negative criticism. If you view the world around you and life's challenges through the lens of goodness, then you will find life much more enjoyable.

10. Look for the good in everything.
查看中文翻译
Life is serious -- and sometimes awful -- but you can still be upbeat and hopeful. Otherwise, what's the point?
