30 Things
17:43At the end of last year I wrote this list of resolutions. Naturally, I forgot all about them until a couple of days ago but I thought that I'd share them anyway to see if any of them would resonate with you.
30 THINGS
TO KNOW, TO DO, TO THINK ABOUT
1. Be more active
and proactive.
2. LOVE YOURSELF
UNASHAMEDLY. Don’t just think about it, do it.
3. Be more patient
with yourself and others. Less judgement, more love.
4. Realise that
people aren't perfect, and act accordingly. (MORE LOVE)
5. Realise that you are worth getting to know and stop putting people on pedestals.
6. Greet people, dammit.
Head up, smile, say hello. Smiling at the ground is only cute in One Direction
songs
7. Make plans. Keep
them.
8. You can be
excellent company to yourself but don’t forget that you need your people. There
is a difference between being alone and being lonely.
9. Reach out.
10. Be kind.
11. Life is not
that serious.
12. Stop letting
the internet make you jaded and angry. Not everything is offensive.
13. Speak up when
you are offended and speak out against offensive behaviour.
14. You don't need
people that don't need you.
15. Pay attention
to the people around you. Be present and available.
16. Less
technology. Go out and do stuff.
17. Be open. (As
open as absolutely necessary, not everyone deserves access into your life.)
18. Save money!
19. Seriously
think about your future. Where are you going? What do you want?
20. Be a nice
person, it’s a cool thing to be.
21. Be more
tactful. Knowing what to say and whether or not to say it is an important skill
to learn.
22. Let people be
people, you don’t know everything.
23. Don’t talk
down to people, don’t let people talk down to you.
24. If you don’t
try it, how will you learn anything about it?
25. If you don’t
like it, change it.
26. Meet and
interact with new and different people. Be open to different perspectives.
27. Go to as many
live musical performances as possible (NB!)
28. Things are as
simple or as complicated as you allow them to be.
29. Discipline and
self-control – learn them.
30. Contrary to popular
belief, there is no step by step guide on how to be a human. Just live, learn and
love.
