Question

What's the best piece of advice that you've ever been given?

Answer 1

Number 1;  Try to learn from others mistakes and save the pain of making them yourself.        The worst advice "follow your heart"

Answer 2

Exercise, meditate, and do "energy work" regularly. Your health and happiness are based on your vibrational level, and those practices will help to keep it very high.

Answer 3

That I always have a choice — even when I'd like to think I have "no choice". When we cannot choose our situation, we can still choose how we react or respond to that situation.

I was a kid when I read this from a book (fiction, mind you, but totally forgot which book it is). It was an advise given to the main character, a young girl.

I believe this advice (or rather life principle) made me "grow up". Knowing that one is responsible for the choices they make, and that they can't lay the blame on other people and situations is the road to maturity.

Answer 4

Never take drugs unless your life depends upon it.

Answer 5

Treat others like you would like to be treated.

Answer 6

A day without laughter is a day wasted
