What is your best life advice?

[TLO]

I'm sure we'll get a mix bag of things here, but I'm interested that if you knew you'd be passing away soon, what life advice would you give someone if you asked?

Be an asshole and take what you want. Nice guys finish last.

Matthew 22:37-40


37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

38 This is the first and great commandment.

39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

if a person tells you that a drug is better than sex, avoid using that drug.

Family is everything. Make everything you do better those around you. Your children are the real reason for your life and our species is dependent on that.

There's no such thing as too much money.

Never, ever trust a fart.

Never take advice from strangers on the internet.

Don't settle.

Don't watch 24 hour for profit cable news channels and stay away from social media sites.

Be in the moment. You never know when the thing you always do will be the last time you do it. Eg. hug your mom, walk your favorite pet, kiss your significant other, talk shit to your best friend.

Get direct sunshine, even if it’s only for a few minutes a day. You’ll be a lot happier.

Take care of your teeth.

Try to do at least one thing that make you happy every day. Even if it’s a small thing.

Compliment people. You never know what others are going through and complimenting someone else could make their day or save them from doing something harmful to themselves or others.

Agreed! Someone much smarter than me told me to "view my decisions as my future self would and ask if that future self is happy." For me, it took a lot of failure and reminiscing to develop a sense of what my future self would want.

My piece of advice would be if you are unsure of which path to take, take the uncomfortable one and don't be afraid for it to fail.

I'd still be in the faith if christians actually did this.

Seek meaning instead of happiness. Happiness is a temporary feeling based on circumstance. Good to have but if you have meaning in life you will never get mired and depressed in the day to day and happiness will come more easily.

I wish I was better at it than I am....I have a lot of room for improvement.

Don’t watch Formula One racing. There are never any passes and the same guy wins every week. That’s the best life advice I have.
