Rumors of life and death

On social media it’s a good practice to check thoroughly the sources when you hear of matters of life and death. Spreading rumors and false info can be damaging. Social media can spread false information faster than ever before  In matters of the demise of people, especially those you know be sure about the information you are getting. Life is too short to shorten the life of anyone based on bad or incomplete info

Use your obstacles as a pathway to success

Marking A Milestone

It’s important to mark milestones. Anniversaries, birthdays, deaths, job starts/losses and life transitions are all things that we measure time by. Especially when your blog reaches a new follower count or you have made 500 posts. Celebrating and observing those times in your life where important things happened can help you remember and treasure everything that is going on with you.

Older People

Older people enjoy the company of younger folks. Yes there are exceptions to that rule but I think being in the company of wise folks can benefit everyone. There are amazing stories from people who are seasoned citizens, people who have lived through a lot of different things. You can learn a lot from someone who’s been around the block a time or two. As a younger person there is life changing wisdom that can be gained. Be open to cross-generational opportunities for friendship.

Pro Tip: Life

Don’t let your work keep you away from people and things you love. Working is important and each of us has a calling in life to do something to provide for our families and to make the world a better place. Sometimes money changes everything. However don’t let that work get in the way of other things that are important to you. Balance is great if you can achieve it.

Pro Tip: Being Nice

Being nice to the dorky, nerdy kid from your high school and college days is a good thing. They could be your boss someday or perhaps a killer coming after you for the way you treated him/her. Just saying.
