These are basic ways to improve your life, you know, the little common sense things we all know but need to practice more often!!!!
1.Don’t try to read other people’s minds. Don’t make other people try to read yours. Communicate.
2.Be polite, but don’t try to be friends with everyone around you. Instead, spend time nurturing your relationships with the people who matter most to you.
3.Your health is your life, keep up with it. Get an annual physical check-up.
4.Live below your means. Don’t buy stuff you don’t need. Always sleep on big purchases. Create a budget and savings plan and stick to both of them.
5.Get enough sleep every night. An exhausted mind is rarely productive.
6. Get up 30 minutes earlier so you don’t have to rush around like a mad man. That 30 minutes will help you avoid speeding tickets, tardiness, and other unnecessary headaches.
7.Get off your high horse, talk it out, shake hands or hug, and move on.
8.Don’t waste your time on jealously. The only person you’re competing against is yourself.
9.Surround yourself with people who fill your gaps. Let them do the stuff they’re better at so you can do the stuff you’re better at.
10.Organize your living space and working space. Read David Allen’s book Getting Things Done for some practical organizational guidance.

12.Ask someone if you aren’t sure.
13.Spend a little time now learning a time-saving trick or shortcut that you can use over and over again in the future.

16.Be sure to pay your bills on time.
