Never be TOO honest with people, you never know how they will use your sincerity against you.

Great Words. For some. Sad is that this are no Universal Truths that are applicable to everyone. That is only find the Bible.

I tell my friend's teenage sons "be a mystery. Don't tell everyone your business. Don't say what you can do or what you will do. Don't tell everyone what's on your mind all the time. Most Don't really care. Make people wonder what you're doing. What you're thinking. Sneak up on them with your achievements. Let them realize you've been busy being happy. Busy learning. Busy achieving. It takes pressure off of you, makes people want more from you. Then stun them with what you have achieved in silence."

To all the single people out there looking for your lifelong mate,…”If people treat you like an option, LEAVE THEM like a choice”.👏🏽

I’m approaching 77. Many of the thoughts stated in this video are supremely accurate. I had to learn many of the truths stated in this video the hard way - trial and error. Any young person should write down every thought expressed in this video and place the list on the mirror that you use each morning to prepare yourself for the upcoming day and read at least one thought before leaving your house or apartment.

Fear of The Lord is the beginning of wisdom

Brilliant. I’ll add one. “If you don’t make time for your health, you will be making time for your sickness”

Cut off 4 people i considered good friends until i realized 2 guys only spoke to me when i was in town buying them lunch or dinner. Neither one ever called me just to talk. A co-worker hung up on me one too many times when i said something inconsequential he didn't agree with. And my best friend's alcoholic girl friend insulted me one too many times while drunk.

“Don’t react, cut them off silently” took a while to get rid of them and their persistent attempts to contact me, two phone number changes, an email change, a house move and a lot of blocking but being betrayed by a close friend you trusted and loved like a sister is utterly devastating, the only way I could survive that was by pretending they did not exist any more. I just did not want to get sucked back in to their toxicity so I completely removed myself. Looking back now I see how much I allowed myself to be manipulated and what an unequal friendship it really was.

You need a better editor.

I like a saying I read years ago - "Before you diagnose yourself with depression or low self-esteem, first make sure that you are not in fact just surrounded by arseholes."

"Never say anything about someone to another person you would not say to that someone face to face" My mother's advice, which has served me well.

"If people treat you like an option, leave them like a choice"

"There will ALWAYS be someone who doesn't see your worth. DON'T LET IT BE YOU!!!!"✝️ 🫂 💛

My lovely dad used to say Never lower your standards to other peoples.

"If you dont let go of the wrong people, you will never meet the right people."

I had to let go of a 6 year friendship once I realized she had to find “room” on her calendar to make time for me. I was by her side for her moments of illness as well as happiness. It’s my turn in life with regards to dealing with illness. Her absence speaks volumes in and of itself. When people treat you like an option, leave them like a choice. Moving on and seeking genuine

Bad friends ruin lives. Anyone who introduces you to bad habits, drama, gossip and cut you from family is not your friend but enemy.

I was always worrying about what others thought, once I stopped worrying, that's when I truly started living.

"Learn to heal without venting to anyone" Well said
