Things I wish I had embraced a long, long time ago...

Don't chase.  What's meant to find you will.Be grateful.  It's a 'biochemical superpower' that rewires your brain to be healthier & more resilient.Never react from a place of anger.  Take some deep breaths, count to 10, & let it settle down first. You may realize a reaction isn't even needed.Silence speaks louder than exposition.  The most profound stories find their power in the chapters left unwritten & the reactions left unspoken.Only value the opinion of those who matter.  If you don't care about them, don't care what they think. Don't let strangers anger you.  If you don't know them, don't let what they do or say affect your mood.Keep the key to your happiness in your own pocket.  Don't give others that kind of power over you.Only give energy to the things & people you value.  Don't feed what you don't want to grow.The most beautiful things don't announce their presence. Always look for the magic that's already there.Revisions aren't failures.  Live as you go & rewrite as needed.Worry is a waste of time & energy.  It's like writing a scary story in your head that you never plan to publish.Not everyone deserves to be a main character in your story.  Don't let anyone stay beyond their storyline.You're exactly where you need to be.  Don't rush life, people, or situations.Be yourself.  That's one thing no one else can do for you.Embrace who you truly are.  Being unique is... unique. Be that.Be kind.  You never know what someone else is going through.Breathe deeper & more often.  There's power in the pause.Be grateful. (This one is worth repeating.)  This is one of the easiest ways to raise your vibration, which can lower stress, increase mental clarity, & boost energy.Soak up a little sun as often as you can.  Not only does it boost Vitamin D, but it feels good.Don't be afraid to say no.  We can't always do & be everything to everybody while keeping our sanity intact. Just dance.  No matter where or how, dancing makes you feel better, mentally and physically.Don't live in the past OR the future.  You'll enjoy life a lot more if you give each moment your full attention.Don't live through your phone screen.  Take a photo, then put the phone down. Capturing the moment in your memories is a lot more enjoyable, not only for you, but also for the one you're capturing. Love.  Feel it. Express it. Absorb it. Give it. Love yourself. Love others. Love connects us. Love gives power. When in doubt... love. I've learned a lot during my 50 times around the sun, much more than I've listed. I've made many mistakes, but as they say, the only real mistake is the one from which we learn nothing. So, over the past half-century, I've learned a lot! I wonder what I'll learn in the next 50....What's the most important life lesson you've learned?
