Let others love you. Love them back. Extend some Grace. Find a church that loves sinners. Take your family with you. Have the right attitude. People move toward the positive and away from the negative. Forgive yourself. Discover your burden. It’s the key to your calling. Have a teachable spirit. If you can’t afford an education, go to the library. Read, read, read, and read some more. Embrace your potential. Pursue excellence. Develop your character and integrity. Enjoy the journey. Love your spouse more than you love yourself. Prepare your children for the challenges of life. Be a good friend. Money is paper. Spend some; save some; give some away. Be careful in the video store. Be careful on the Internet. Sing a good song. Pray.
