Sometimes it’s a rather short time we have with people. Focus on enjoying the time together.

Finer Things
Spend more on a few finer things because you are a good person. Don’t always just take the cheapest. Pay a little more for a better experience. You’ll be glad you did. And you are likely to never remember the extra bit of cost.
Keep Your Word
Trust is an important social quality. With trust, you can achieve a lot. Though without trust, it can be difficult to do anything. People will not want to hire you, count on you, give you responsibility, bring you into their inner circle or get involved in your life.
Every action impacts trust, so be mindful of the things you say and do.
Keep Playing To Win
Even if things are not currently going in your favour, play every second to win! Keep the winner’s mindset. It can still turn around. There is time. But you need to play every moment like it’s the gold medal match and you are absolutely going to win.
Throw every ounce of energy into your efforts. Leave nothing left over for when you’re done. Never give up. It’s only over when that lady sings.
Until that final whistle, play like an obsessed champion. And one day you’ll be one.
Find Your Inner Strength
It is in there!! You have a lion mode ???? You just need to activate and use it. Build it up like a muscle that you can call on at any time. Unleash the beast at will and become King (or Queen) of the jungle at any time you wish.
Planning Ahead
You’ll spend less, feel better and reduce stress if you can plan ahead.
Christmas cards are a great example. If you plan ahead, you’ll have time to make or buy cards that you love to send. If you’re making your card, you won’t have to pay for instant production. You can opt for the cheaper 2-3 day production.
Also, you will pay less for postage with a lot of lead time. You won’t have to use a courier, express service or overnight delivery. You can pay the least and know it will get there in time.
Not planning ahead, and acting on it, will cost you more time, more money, more stress and many missed opportunities. You may even have to pay penalties or fines. (Think about parking tickets. You pay less if you pay quickly. A good incentive).
Party Season!
It’s a festive time of year with lots of parties to attend and plenty of good cheer.
If you have drinks, it can be good to remember the three drink rule. More than that and you could find yourself driven home by a friend, a taxi, the police or someone’s Dad. Oh my!!
Don’t slip onto Santa’s naughty list this late in the year!
Seek Peaceful Existence
When this is the number one priority for all people around the world, we will have the greatest era of peace and prosperity, safety and security.
When even a few disgruntled people want something more than peace and place it as their highest value, we will have trouble and possibly war.
It only takes one bad apple to spoil the whole darn bunch.
Avoid Discomfort At Your Peril.
Having comfy shoes, comfy clothes, and a comfy job can be the ideal life for some people. They may even want comfort foods, their coffee and wine or cigarettes to help mask any discomfort.
But beware: If everything is so comfy you might go to jelly, physically and mentally. Sometimes you need tough stuff to harden you. You will need some discipline and resilience to get through the discomfort. Get yourself a little uncomfortable, for that is the way to get yourself to unstoppable.
