5 little life lessons.

1. Sincerely compliment others.
   It’s easiest thing to do, it will cost you nothing and making someone else feel better will in return make you feel incredible too.
2. There is other ways to express yourself.
   Sure, logging onto Facebook and posting on someone’s wall might be easier but try something new for once. Don’t text or call or tweet. Write them a letter and send it in the mail. Make a mixtape with songs that remind you of them. Paint them a picture or draw them a sign or write a damn song about them even if you can’t write lyrics worth shit. It’s the thought that counts.
3. Focus on the positives.
   You got fired, you found your partner cheating on you and to top it all off, there’s no milk left for your fucking cereal. You can be having the worst day of your life but I gurantee you there will be a little good in there somewhere even if it is as small and simple as hearing your favourite song on the bus home.
4. If it won’t matter in a week or a month, don’t let it matter at all.
   For a few years now I’ve been set on this little piece of advice I read. Fights will always happen and I know how difficult it is to just move on from something especially when your pride is in the way but the majority of arguments are never worth it. Suck it up even if you were in the right.“Winning” doesn’t matter when you lose an awesome friendship because of it.
5. Quit caring about what other people are doing.
   You don’t like what she’s wearing? Don’t wear it. You don’t enjoy what he listens to? Don’t listen. It’s quite simple. There is absolutely no reason for you to care about the way someone dresses or what songs they have on their iPod.
