I’ve Learned

In life, generally speaking, there is always an opportunity to learn.  I’ve lived a life of learning the hard way.  I’ve never taken the easy road, but I’ve finally gotten somewhere.  By the grace of God.  I’ve been doing a lot of thinking lately, on what I’ve learned in life so far, and I thought I’d hash out a bullet list.  From that bullet list, I plan on writing a post about each one.  We’ll see how it goes.

  1. Life’s Too Short to be Angry.
  2. Marry Your Best Friend.
  3. With Age Comes Wisdom.
  4. Never Make Assumptions.
  5. Your Parents are Right A Lot of the Time.
  6. Vision is Only Half the Battle.
  7. Never Give Up.
  8. If You’re the Smartest Person in the Room, You’re in the Wrong Room.
  9. Kindness and Hard Work Will Take you Farther than Intelligence.
  10. Laugh.
  11. Never Detour From Your Beliefs.
  12. Step Out of Your Comfort Zone.
  13. Don’t Lie, Don’t Cheat, Don’t Steal.
  14. In Every Battle, Arm Yourself With Love.
  15. Nothing is More Important Than Family.
  16. Everyone is Going Through Something.
  17. Forgive. Holding a Grudge is Only Hurting You.

These are the things I try to remember every day.  These are the things that I believe have shaped who I am today.  I plan on going in to detail on each one.  What are somethings I’ve missed?
