When we’re constantly stuck in our screens, we’re missing out on what’s happening around us and within us.

One of the things that I believe defines kindness is making others feel important. And one of my big pet peeves in life is speaking badly of other people. I’m a big proponent of—“If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all.” If you want to start showing kindness, simply do not say anything negative about anyone.

Gratitude is inherently selfless. It is unconditional and shows internal appreciation toward other people. Doing so can influence two critical processes in your life, namely catharsis, and reciprocity. Both of these responses are directly related to your happiness.

You need to allow yourself at least one or two grand extravagances in your life. Not extras, I’m talking big enchilada extravagances. If you have a dream item, one you’ve always wanted—a fancy car, a vacation home, a luxurious trip—if you can afford it, go for it.

Some misers never spend, saving everything because they think they’ll live forever. On the other end are the wasters, who believe they’ll die tomorrow, so they might as well spend it all today.

You can be extra without breaking the bank, and you can preserve the bank by not being extravagant.

There is a caveat to pursuing pleasures: never do so at the expense of others. Your pleasures should never harm others. Never hurt another person’s feelings or dignity. As in all things, pursue your pleasures with class.

Laws of Karma work in unexpected ways. Help someone who doesn’t deserve it. Sometimes a poisonous well may have the pearl you are looking for.

Somebody in your family has a problem. You know the exact solution but they are not taking your advice. Discard that solution from your mind immediately. Don’t start applying it on yourself to prove something to them. Medicines meant for someone else can cause severe side effects if you swallow them.
