Got this in my email
box today, 21 great principles to live by! Niko
1. Give people more
than they expect and do it cheerfully.
2. Marry a man/woman
you love to talk to. As you get older, their conversational skills will be as
important as any other.
3. Don’t believe all
you hear, spend all you have or sleep all you want.
4. When you say,
"I love you," mean it.
5. When you say,
"I’m sorry," look the person in the eye.
6. Be engaged at
least six months before you get married.
7. Believe in love
at first sight.
8. Never laugh at
anyone’s dreams. People who don’t have dreams don’t have much.
9. Love deeply and
passionately. You might get hurt but it’s the only way to live life completely.
10. In
disagreements, fight fairly. No name calling.
11. Don’t judge
people by their relatives.
12. Talk slowly but
think quickly.
13. When someone
asks you a question you don’t want to answer, smile and ask, "Why do you
want to know?"
14. Remember that
great love and great achievements involve great risk.
15. Say "bless
you" when you hear someone sneeze.
16. When you lose,
don’t lose the lesson.
17. Remember the
three R’s: Respect for self; Respect for others; and Responsibility for all
your actions.
18. Don’t let a
little dispute injure a great friendship.
19. When you realize
you’ve made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it.
20. Smile when
picking up the phone. The caller will hear it in your voice.
21. Spend some time
alone.
