rule of thumb

i wrote this down in 2000 -- i don't remember now where i got it from exactly. very good points to live by...

1 - Don't undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different, each of us is special.
2 - Don't see your goals by what other people deem important. Only you know what is best for you.
3 - Don't take for granted the things closest to your heart. Cling to them as you would your life, for without them, life is meaningless.
4 - Don't let your life slip through your fingers by living in the past or for the future. By living your life one day at a time, you live all the days of your life.
5 - Don't give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
6 - Don't be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.
7 - Don't shut love out of your life by saying it's impossible to find. The quickest way to receive love is to give; the fastest way to lose love is to hold too tightly; and the way to keep love is to give it wings.
8 - Don't run through life so fast that you forget not only where you've been, but also where you are going.
9 - Don't forget that a person's greatest emotional need is to feel appreciated.
10 - Don't be afraid to learn. Knowledge is weightless, a treasure you can always carry easily.

Fortunately, the astral influxes will stimulate your willpower and allow you to get results worthy of your requirements and hopes. Generally speaking, you'll have a new rendezvous with luck, success, vitality and love this year. The stars will help you solve your various problems, whatever they may be, because you'll be borne by great enthusiasm and will no longer be alone. Nothing could succeed in discouraging you; on the contrary, obstacles will stimulate you. You'll be well decided not to let yourself be disheartened. Wood Ox Do not isolate yourself; accept all invitations, as you'll always draw profit from them. Think of creati...
