The advice people obviously follow

I give a lot of advice.
I hear a lot of advice.

Some of it is good.

As I (and I'm sure you, too) observe those around you, it's obvious that they got their advice somewhere else, 'cause they're entrenched in sticking to it.

I think I might have been able to reverse-engineer what some of that advice must have been...

Feel free to add yours in the comments.

  • Never allow a moment of glory to go by without a complaint.
  • Always worry about all of the details.
  • Avoid regular sleep patterns.
  • Be your own worst critic.
  • Make note of all the possible concerns, no matter how small.
  • Always hold a grudge.
  • Always assume.
  • Always assume that decisions are made based on how they'll affect you.



Judgers

Is the world full of judgers or is it just the U.S.A.?

We seem to assign value to a lot of things; good/bad, better/worse, progress/failing, etc.

What would happen if we tried, for even just a few hours, to not assign such values to anything?
