Doesn’t have to be a life motto. Any motto, for any application.

Mine is: “Fear is shorter than regret.”

“Be excellent to each other”.

Show some compassion, be a bro, care about other people. Maybe we can make society a bit better; one person, one act of kindness, at a time.

And party on dude! I came here to say this. It’s such an easy tenant to live by. The world would be a better place if everyone really took it to heat.

An easy tenant to live by would be a good neighbor.
An easy tenet to live by is a simple guiding principle.

Remember you will die. Not as a fear but simply as a reminder.

If you can’t control it, don’t worry about it.

Used to mostly keep me sane at work

If you can’t do something about a problem, worrying just gives you another problem. If you can do something about it, don’t waste energy worrying about it, just do the thing

I use this every time I’m on the fence about going to an event or just curling up on the couch.

I don’t understand the whole wisdom of this right now, so it probably means I have some meditating to do as well
