Here is a list to pep up your life!
It came as an anonymous forward on WhatsApp, but I felt like preserving it for
posterity. Hence I am putting it up on the site. Each one of the points is a
gem, hope you like it too. Do let me know which ones you liked the most.
1.

Own a great stereo system
5.
If in a fight, hit first and hit hard
6.
Keep secrets
7.
Never give up on anybody. Miracles happen everyday
8.
Always accept an outstretched hand
9.
Be brave. Even if you're not, pretend to be. No
one can tell the difference
10.
Whistle
11.
Avoid sarcastic remarks
12.
Choose your life's mate carefully. From this one
decision will come 90 per cent of all your happiness or misery
13.

will never find out
14.
Lend only those books you never care to see
again
15.

that they have

17.
Give people a second chance, always
18.
Be romantic
19.
Become the most positive and enthusiastic person
you know
20.
Loosen up. Relax. Except for rare life-and-death
matters, nothing is as important as it first seems
21.
Don't allow the phone to interrupt important
moments. It's there for your convenience, not the caller's
22.
Be a good loser for your loved ones

Be a good winner of Hearts
24.
Think twice before burdening a friend with a
secret

were born
27.

29.
Don't burn bridges. You'll be surprised how many
times you have to cross the same river
30.
Live your life so that your epitaph could read, “No
Regrets”
31.
Be bold and courageous. When you look back on
life, you'll regret the things you didn't do more than the ones you did
32.
Never waste an opportunity to tell someone you
love them
33.
Remember no one makes it alone. Have a grateful
heart and be quick to acknowledge those who helped you
34.
Take charge of your attitude. Don't let someone
else choose it for you
35.
Visit friends and relatives when they are in
hospital; you need only stay a few minutes
36.
Begin each day with some of your favorite music
37.
Once in a while, take the scenic route
38.
Forgive quickly. Life is short
39.
Answer the phone with enthusiasm and energy in
your voice

table. Million-dollar ideas sometimes strike at 3 A.M
41.

living, regardless of how trivial their job

later
