GUIDE TO A BETTER LIFE
Greetings of Peace!
but not so hard to read though.
This is amazing, Randy Pausch 47 yrs old, A computer Sc. lecturer from
Mellon Universityhe died of pancreatic cancer in 2008, but wrote a
book ‘The last lecture” before then, one of the bestsellers in 2007.
What a legacy to leave behind…
In a letter to his wife Jai and his children, Dylan, Logan, and Chloe,
he wrote this beautiful "guide to a better life" for his wife and
children to follow.
May you be blessed by his insight.
POINTS ON HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR LIFE
Personality:
1. Don't compare your life to others'. You have no idea what their
journey is all about.
2. Don't have negative thoughts of things you cannot control. Instead
invest your energy in the positive present moment
3. Don't over do; keep your limits
4. Don't take yourself so seriously; no one else does
5. Don't waste your precious energy on gossip
6. Dream more while you are awake
7. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need..
8. Forget issues of the past. Don't remind your partner of his/her
mistakes of the past. That will ruin your present happiness.
9. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone. Don't hate others.
10. Make peace with your past so it won't spoil the present
11. No one is in charge of your happiness except you
12. Realize that life is a school and you are here to learn.
Problems are simply part of the curriculum that appear and fade away
like algebra class but the lessons you learn will last a lifetime.

20. What other people think of you is none of your business
21. Your job will not take care of you when you are sick. Your family
and friends will. Stay in touch.
Life:
22. Do the right things
23. However good or bad a situation is, it will change
24. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up
25. The best is yet to come
26. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful
