Just for today
- Try to live through this day only, and not tackle your whole life problem.

- Be happy, most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be.

- Try to strengthen your mind. Study and learn something useful. Do not be a mental loafer, read something that requires effort, thought and concentration.

- Take your "luck" as it comes, and fit yourself to it.

- Exercise your soul in three ways: Do somebody a good turn, and don't get found out. Do at least two things you don't want to just for exercise.

- Don't show anyone that your feelings are hurt; they may be hurt, but today you will not show it.

- Be agreeable. Look as well as you can, dress becomingly, talk low, act courteously, criticize not one bit, do not find fault with anything and try not to improve or regulate anybody except yourself.

- have a program. You may not follow it exactly, but it will save yourself from two pests: hurry and indecision.

- Have a quiet half hour all by yourself, and relax. During this half hour, sometime, try to get a better perspective of your life.

- Don't be afriad especially don't be afraid to enjoy what is beautiful, and to believe that as you give to the world, so the world will give to you.


When you've done all that reward yourself with a nice stiff drink or your choice of class A' drugs, or maybe have a fight in a casino.
