Hey You: Stop Complicating Your Life

* Start communicating clearly. Don’t try to read other people’s minds, and don’t make other people try to read yours. Most problems, big and small, within a family, friendship, or business relationship, can start with bad communication.

* Stop wasting time and money trying to acquire more of everything. Start focusing on quality. Live a comfortable life, not a wasteful one. Too many people buy things they don’t need with money they don’t have to impress people they don’t know. Do not spend to impress others and manage your money wisely so your money does not manage you.

* Stop spending time with negative people. Surround yourself with people who reflect the person you want to be. Choose friends who you admire, and who love and respect you – people who make your day a little brighter simply by being in it. Life is too short to spend time with people who suck the happiness out of you.

* Stop trying to change people.  Start accepting people just the way they are. In most cases it’s impossible to change them anyway, and it’s rude to try. So save yourself the stress. Instead of trying to change others, lead by example.
