Wake up earlier Spend less time online Spend more time outside Every day, do something that scares you Take more deep breaths Realize you can't control certain things Dance naked to 90s music when no one else is home Meet new people Meet old people – they have better stories Listen to more people's stories Learn to see things from different angles Learn to look for Better Angels Walk more Drink more water Drink less caffeine Don't leave the coffeepot on when you leave the house Be more aware of your bad habits Be more patient with others' bad habits Seek something every day - even if you don't find what you're looking for, at least you won't have wasted the day Don't start smoking – despite what you may have heard about what it does for stress Worry less - about what you can change Change what you can Stop writing cliches Stop blaming your inaction on your home town or your parents or your emotional instability Take responsibility for your inaction Read more often – you have books you haven't touched, ever Write by the water – the white noise of river helps you think Return more favors – people have been kind to you Be kind to more people Don't small talk – small talk is for small minds Don't ruin a good conversation by talking too much Make something every day (art, love, decisions, etc) Go to bed earlier

To Do List
Wake up earlier Spend less time online Spend more time outside Every day, do something that scares you Take more deep breaths Realize you can't control certain things Dance naked to 90s music when no one else is home Meet new people Meet old people – they have better stories Listen to more people's stories Learn to see things from different angles Learn to look for Better Angels Walk more Drink more water Drink less caffeine Don't leave the coffeepot on when you leave the house Be more aware of your bad habits Be more patient with others' bad habits Seek something every day - even if you don't find what you're looking for, at least you won't have wasted the day Don't start smoking – despite what you may have heard about what it does for stress Worry less - about what you can change Change what you can Stop writing cliches Stop blaming your inaction on your home town or your parents or your emotional instability Take responsibility for your inaction Read more often – you have books you haven't touched, ever Write by the water – the white noise of river helps you think Return more favors – people have been kind to you Be kind to more people Don't small talk – small talk is for small minds Don't ruin a good conversation by talking too much Make something every day (art, love, decisions, etc) Go to bed earlier
