"Never borrow from the future. If you worry about what will happen tomorrow and it doesn't happen, you have worried in vain. Even if it does happen, you have to worry twice"
1. Pray
2. Go to bed on time
3. Get up on time so you can start the day un-rushed
4. Say NO to projects that won't fit into your time schedule, or that will compromise your mental health
5. Delegate tasks to capable others
6. Simplify and un-clutter our life
7. Les is more (although one is often not enough, tow are often too man)
8. Allow extra time to do things and to get to places
9. Pace yourself. Spread out big changes and difficult projects over time; don't' lump the hard things all together
10. Take one day at a time
11. Separate worries from concerns. If a situation is a concern, find out what God would have you do and let go of the anxiety. If you can't do anything about the situation, release it.
12. Live within your budget; don't use credit cards for ordinary purchases
13. Have backups; an extra key in our wallet, an extra house key buried in the garden, extra stamps, etc.
14. K.M.S. (Keep Mouth Shut) This single piece of advice can prevent an enormous amount of trouble
15. Do something for the KID in you everyday
16. Carry a Bible with you to read while waiting in line
17. Get enough rest
18. Ear right
19. Get organized so everything has its place
20. Listen to a tape while driving that can help improve your quality of life
21. Write down thoughts and inspirations
22. Every day, find time to be alone
23. Having Problems? Talk to God on the spot. Try to nip small problems in the bud. Don't wait until its time to go to bed to try to pray.
24. Make friends with Godly people
25. Keep a folder of favorite scripture on hand
26. Remember that the shortest bridge between despair and hope is often a good, "thank our Jesus"
27. Laugh
28 Laugh some more!
29. Take your work seriously, but not yourself at all
30. Develop a forgiving attitude (most people are doing the best they can)
31. Be kind to unkind people (they probably need it the most)
32. Sit on your ego.
33. Talk less; listen more
34. Slow down.
35. Remind yourself that you are not the general manager of the universe.
36. Every night before you go to bed, think of one thing you're grateful for that you've never been grateful for before. GOD HAS A WAY OF TURNING THINGS AROUND FOR YOU. "IF God is for us, who can be against us"
