Jesse 867 Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Stealing this from Reddit. What's the best advice you've ever received? What is something you read or that someone once told you that you'll never forget? Words you live by? Some examples (simple ones, you can do better): In a year from now, you'll wish you started today If it smells like shit wherever you go, check under your own shoes first.

Jesse 867 Posted January 12, 2015 Author Share Posted January 12, 2015 (edited) What does it mean? "Hakuna matata" is a Swahili phrase; literally translated, it roughly means "there isn't a problem/trouble". Its meaning is similar to the English phrase "no problem" and is akin to "don't worry, be happy". Edited January 12, 2015 by Jesse 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CtfdHeadBussa 29 Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 A friend's Dad told me something when I was in high school that I will always remember.. He said "Don't try to understand a crazy person, if you succeed you've just become as crazy as they have." This was after he showed us a video of his neighbor putting banana peels in his mailbox and I said "try to imagine what's going through his head when he's doing that and what he's trying to accomplish." lol 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErnYoung 548 Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 I have a couple that helped to shape my life and career. "Do what you think is right until you are told to stop." "It is not whether or not you make mistakes, life is a series of them. It is how your recover from them that matters." "Say what you mean, mean what you say and don't say it mean."

ronin 596 Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 - Enjoy life as much as you can as I never had that chance. - You live today, not yesterday Both from my beloved great-grand father. Amazing and very wise man who always looked forward, never backwards.

DavidCore89 7,402 Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 (edited) I have received lots of useful advice and I have enough phrases to last a lifetime. My grandmother once told me "Follow your heart, but take your brain with you" - I think she was right, it's too easy to let one rule the other and I've done that at least once. She also said this "Never wait for things to happen, make them happen" - Again, spot on. Waiting for things to happen doesn't work, they never happen that way. I like to write. Mostly songs, but also phrases, stories, poems and rhymes - it's quite often that I'll write something that'll stick in my mind for a while, so for that reason I think we all already contain the correct advice for each situation, it's in our minds just waiting to be expressed.
