Last year, we posted 10 life lessons; we got so many emails requesting a repost that we decided we would post 10 new ones in addition to the first life lessons. Hope you enjoy these, and feel free to tweet any of them.
- Don’t just be grateful; be humble. What you have is a gift.
- Be the leading person in your own life story.
- Believe in yourself if you want others to believe in you.
- Leadership is about taking responsibility for your actions and the actions of your team.
- Anger is about the past, fear is about the future, and happiness is about the present.
- Listen to the voice in your gut; it is much smarter than the voice in your head.
- Laugh before every meal; it could be your last.
- Don’t worry about what the “other guy” has, trust me it’s not better or worst than what you have. It’s just different.
- If you didn’t work hard for it, you don’t get to have it.
- The only thing that is real… love.

10 Life Lessons
- Make peace with your past so it won’t mess up your present.
- What others think of you is none of your business; don’t let people who don’t value you “rent space ” in your head.
- Time doesn’t heal all wounds; it just brings distance.
- Own your life; don’t blame others for your choices.
- Don’t compare your life to others. You have no idea what they have been through.
- Don’t judge others; you don’t have the right.
- You don’t need to know all the answers. You need to know the right questions.
- Trust yourself if you want others to trust you.
- Change is part of life; hit acceptance.
- Finally, to paraphrase Mark Twain… Don’t expect anything from life; it owes you nothing…it was here first.
