An Angel says, ‘Never borrow from the future. If you
worry about what may happen tomorrow and it doesn’t
happen, you have worried in vain. Even if it does
happen, you have to worry twice.’
1. Pray
2. Go to bed on time.
3. Get up on time so you can start the day unrushed.
4. Say No to projects that won’t fit into your time
schedule, or that will compromise your mental health.
5. Delegate tasks to capable others.
6. Simplify and unclutter your life.
7. Less is more. (Although one is often not enough,
two are often too many.)
8. Allow extra time to do things and to get to places.
9. Pace yourself. Spread out big changes and difficult
projects over time; don’t lump the hard things all
together.
10. Take one day at a time.
11. Separate worries from concerns . If a situation is
a concern, find out what God would have you do and let
go of the anxiety . If you can’t do anything about a
situation, forget it.
12. Live within your budget; don’t use credit cards
for ordinary purchases.
13. Have backups; an extra car key in your wallet, an
extra house key buried in the garden, extra stamps,
etc.
14. K.M.S. (Keep Mouth Shut). This single piece of
advice can prevent an enormous amount of trouble.
15. Do something for the Kid in You everyday.
16. Carry a Bible with you to read while waiting in
line.
17. Get enough rest.
18. Eat right.
19 Get organized so everything has its place.
20. Listen to a tape while driving that can help
improve your quality of life.
21. Write down thoughts and inspirations.
22. Every day, find time to be alone.
23. Having problems? Talk to God on the spot. Try to
nip small problems in the bud. Don’t wait until it’s
time to go to bed to try and pray.
24. Make friends with Godly people.
25. Keep a folder of favorite scriptures on hand.
26. Remember that the shortest bridge between despair
and hope is often a good ‘Thank you Jesus.’
27. Laugh.
28. Laugh some more!
29. Take your work seriously, but not yourself at all.
30. Develop a forgiving attitude (most people are
doing the best they can).
31. Be kind to unkind people (they probably need it
the most).
32. Sit on your ego.
33 Talk less; listen more.
34. Slow down.
35. Remind yourself that you are not the general
manager of the universe.
36 . Every night before bed, think of one thing you’re
grateful for that you’ve never been grateful for
before. GOD HAS A WAY OF TURNING THINGS AROUND FOR
YOU.
‘If God is for us, who can be against us?’
(Romans 8:31)
