Something I found in old note book

Clearly, I read way too many self-help books when I was younger!!!

(1) Always remember utility companies are your enemy. They are out to get you. (trying to be funny); (2) Don’t be afraid to “try new things”. Avoid the common pitfall of “tranquilizing yourself with trivial” by devising seemingly-busy, innocuous, monotonous routines in order to avoid “living”. It’s easy to do. It’s comfortable. It’s addictive. Save it for when you’re dead; (3) Get to know yourself. What works for others might not necessarily work for you. Figure out what works best for you and then do it; (4) Remember “nothing is true; it’s only failed to be falsified” – it’s the essence of science - it allows an open mind in which to challenge social norms, preconceived “truths” and conventional wisdom; (5) Don’t be afraid to end an “old” life and start a “new” one – no matter how old you are or how “complacent” you are in your current life.
