12 Life Lessons Everyone Should Learn‏

 Have you begun to realize that there is much more to

learn about life than what you were taught in school? If 
so, you'll find the following 12 life lessons to be some 
of the most important lessons you've ever learned.  In 
fact, after you're finished reading these, it might be a 
good idea to save this e-mail somewhere on your computer
or print it and read it every day...
 
   1. Paying Cash is Better Than Borrowing
 
   The purpose of credit and borrowing money is to make a 
profit for the lender. Every time that you borrow money to 
buy something, you're agreeing to pay more money for it 
later so that someone else can make a profit. Therefore 
it's best to buy what you want with cash and to save the 
extra money for helping yourself instead of someone else. 
 
   2. Your Health is Your Life
 
   You only have one body and it has to last you for the 
rest of your life. Therefore, your life and your health 
are directly linked and you should guard your personal 
health with your life. This means refusing to give in to 
the temptation to eat junk or to live an inactive 
lifestyle. Make proper nutrition, consistent balanced
exercise and stress management a part of your lifestyle 
and you'll have a good healthy life. 
 
   3. You Must Give to Get
 
   One of the major causes for unhappiness is expecting 
to get something for nothing. In life, you will receive 
only according to quality and quantity with which you 
give. This is true in your relationships, your health, 
career and your financial life.
 
   4. Being Right Does Not Build Relationships
 
   The best way to build empowering relationships with 
other people is to understand them and to be understood 
by them. Getting into disputes, debates or arguments 
about who is right and who is wrong is a dead end.  
Focus instead on being compassionate and treating people 
the way you would like to be treated. 
 
   5. Most of Getting What You Want is Being Bold 
Enough to Ask
 
   There are two things which keep people from getting 
what they really want out of life: they either don't 
know what they want, or they are too afraid to ask for 
it. Learn to ask for the things you want, if people say 
no, you've lost nothing. But if you make it a habit to 
ask for what you want you'd be surprised at how often 
you get it. 
 
   6. Fear Can Be Your Best Friend
 
   Fear is not always bad, and sometimes it can be your
best friend. If you're afraid of being in poor health, 
you'll work a lot harder at keeping yourself healthy. If 
you're afraid of having someone else (like the government), 
responsible for your financial life you'll work harder to 
build your financial safety net. In fact, The only time 
that fear becomes bad is when it keeps you from 
doing something you really want to do. 
 
   7. Knowledge is Only Power When it's Used
 
   Some of the smartest people in this world never use 
their knowledge and therefore never benefit from it. 
However, when knowledge is applied it becomes active and 
powerful...it also increases your learning because you begin 
to learn from experience. When you learn something useful, 
put it to use as soon as possible.
 
   8. There are Seasons in Life
 
   You'll have times in your life when everything seems to 
be happening at once, then you'll also have times when nothing
seems to be happening. Learn to endure the seasons of life 
by working hard when you have plenty to do, and by saving 
your financial resources for times when you may not have as 
much. Also, learn to use the slower seasons to rest and 
recharge yourself.
 
   9. Marry Your Best Friend
 
   Looks fade, so does physical attraction and so does the 
romantic "puppy love." If you want to have a lasting 
courtship and to raise your children as a couple, marry your 
best friend.
 
   10. Collect Memories
 
   Keep a Journal, take pictures and keep them somewhere 
safe. Someday you'll be very glad that you did, and so will 
your generations after you. 
 
   11. Choose a Career that Makes You Happy
 
   Life is too short to be unhappy with what you're doing 
40 to 50 hours a week. Not to mention that unhappiness in 
your career will filter into other areas of your life. 
Choose a job that you love, and you'll never have to work 
another day... and you get paid for it. Not a bad deal.
 
   12. Higher Standards Mean Higher Rewards
 
   Having high expectations for your health, your 
relationships, your career and your financial life might mean 
you'll have to work harder. It might also mean you'll be 
disappointed more often. But the rewards that it will bring
in strength of character and then success will far 
outweigh any price you had to pay. Keep your standards high, 
and don't settle for less than what you really want.
