Appreciation is a critical element in life. The more you see benefit, the more you appreciate it and the warmer you are.

Starting Is Hard Or Easy?
Starting a project is easy. Finishing is hard. Starting to revise schoolwork for an exam is hard but building momentum is easier.
Hard now can make it easier later. Easier now could mean hard later.
Whether it is easy or hard to start, start anyway. Start now.

Minority Of One
At a granular level, everyone is a minority. You can generalise the world into one group: humans. Or you can subdivide the world by large, fairly obvious groups such as sex, colour, height, weight, intelligence, wealth, or geography.
However, you can further subdivide people into the street they grew up on, the parents they had, the schools they attended and the scars on their body. Ultimately, their DNA is a very unique item for everyone.
So we are all a minority of one. But some people band together in larger groups to take advantage of certain, similar characteristics to gain greater influence from the group.
Be careful who you align with. In the end, you’re still a minority of one.

Don’t Panic
Remain Calm. Whatever is coming down the pipe, is coming down the pipe. You can’t stop it. You need to surf the wave ???? of change. Keep your chin up and knees bent. You can survive just about anything.

Understand Your Emotions
Your emotions dictate a lot (most/all) of what you think and do. We like to think we’re quite rationale, and many are, but many are not. Be careful not to be ruled by hate and fear or a desire to make everything perfect.
Ensure your emotions are in check and draw sensible conclusions after that.

Enjoy Fun Times
Catch up with friends. Listen to music. Chat. Frolic. Dance. Flirt. Seek adventure. Watch great movies. Dine out. Talk about life and space and hope.
Enjoy it all!

Time Moves Forward
Occasionally time moves too slow or too fast. One thing is for certain though – time moves forward.
You can’t go back and unsay things or undo things. You have to accept and move on. This can be hard or easy, depending on what the situation was.
We can fight time and try to hold it back. Or we can decide not to accept the situation. However, it tends to make life a lot more difficult in those cases.
It would be easier if we didn’t have these emotion things. But we do. So don’t be too hard on yourself. Time also heals all wounds. You might just need more time than you would like it to be.

There’s A Lot We Don’t Know
If you think your way is the right way and only way, you may have some more to learn. You may still be right, but knowing it is the challenge. The certainty of knowing something, may be misplaced, given all that we don’t know.

Put The Effort In
You must always do your best. Put in extra effort to all things. You never know who is watching and what might come of your efforts.
And you’ll build confidence and self-esteem too.
