The idea for this post, came from a prompt on writingprompts.tumblr.com
A lot of my students were posting their “ABC Advice for Life” posts, and I was inspired to write one, too.

Always get a good night’s sleep.
Be kind.
Connect with nature.
Don’t forget to laugh at yourself.
Everything in moderation, including moderation!
Find the good in others.
Grow plants.
Hug people.
In this bright future, you can’t forget your past (nod to Bob Marley).
Just be happy.
Know yourself.
Listen with your eyes, ears and heart.
Make music part of your life.
Never say never.
Open your eyes and notice what’s around you.
Patience is a virtue.
Quit complaining and other negative habits.
Remember that everyone is fighting a difficult battle.
See the cup as half-full.

Understand first, then be understood.
Voraciously read.

Xplore the world.
Yoga is awesome.
Zap away negative thoughts!
