- Never lie, and never let anyone cause you to lie. Truth, or the pursuit
of it, is all we have.
- Never do anything you are ashamed of. If you're ashamed that means somewhere
inside you think it's wrong; and if you think it's wrong, you shouldn't be
doing it.
- Take full responsibility for yourself. You are the only one who can say
what goes into or comes out of your body.
- Always admit when you're wrong. You'll save thousands in therapy later
-- and a few friendships too.
- Change your mind as often as possible. Just because you thought something
yesterday doesn't mean you have to think it today. Don't ever become a prisoner
of your own opinion.
- Beware of anyone who says they know. Trust me, they don't, or they wouldn't
have to say they did.
- Take care of yourself first, then your family, then your friends. And if
you have anything left over, share it.
- Do something, anything, every day to change the world. It doesn't have
to be big, it could be giving a dime to a street person, planting a flower,
picking up litter. Anything will change the world.
- When you have nothing better to do, smile. You'll have to trust me on the
miracle this step brings.
- Make a bit of time every day to be alone and think. Five or ten minutes
is enough. It will keep you sane.
- Have all the sex you want -- safe sex. Get lust out of your way. It's the
only way I know to make sure you fall in love for the right reasons. And I
want you all to find true love.
- Learn something new every day. Read a newspaper article that you wouldn't
normally read. Open a dictionary to a word you never heard, or never understood.
