“If we try to adapt our mind to the regular sequence of changes and accept the inevitable with good grace, our life will proceed quite smoothly and harmoniously.”

— Epictetus

I will try and do things that make me laugh and make others laugh
I will try and keep my word
I will try and spend time with people smarter than me who I can learn from
Books are virtual mentors. Read a lot.
Move in nature
Hug more
It’s ok to be average. I’m average or below average in most things. I’m average at following this manifesto
I will try to eat well. I want to make up for all the poor eating decisions I made when younger.
It’s none of my business what people think of me.
I will try and be helpful
I will try and express gratitude for new things
I will try and spend more time listening in conversations. Learning happens when listening not when talking
I will try and be the best husband I can, treating Mary with courtesy and interest
I will try and be interesting by being interested in others
I will try to maintain focus on what is important.
I will try to be happy
I will try and choice my attitude and not be lead astray by my 'mind weather’
I will try and think and act the way I want to feel
I will try and be who I am and what makes me come alive
