Take Your Own Advice

Have you ever considered how much better our lives would be if we took the advice we give to others?


After all, we routinely advise other people to:


Seek balance and not become obsessed with work.

Forgive themselves when they make mistakes.

Avoid procrastination.

Take time out for exercise and reflection.

Avoid envy.

Recognize that most of the things that are dreaded will not take place.

Be patient.

Be courageous.

Take time to appreciate people and achievements.


We know all of that and yet ignore the most hard won lessons.
