Think before you do. Don't just automatically react to life or live by blind habit. Think about what you're about to do, and think about the consequences. Remember that when you choose the action, you're also choosing all the things that result from that action.

When you choose to eat half a dozen doughnuts, you're choosing to put fat on your body. When you choose to be sloppy with your work, you're choosing to sabotage your own career.

When you choose to rise early and start getting things done, you're choosing to create real and lasting value in your own life and in the world around you. When you choose to stay focused on an important task, you're choosing to enjoy the rewards that come from real accomplishment.

Live your life based on your own best intentions. Each action you take has very real consequences, and you are in a position to select the exact consequences that you wish to bring about.

It only takes a brief moment to think before you act. Do it every time, and your life will follow the precise path you choose.

Fran~

Totally agree. My mom used to put stuff on the stairs that needed to go up, and we knew to bring it up there and put it away. Rule # one, mom is always right....laugh

So much of what you say is general common sense and courtesy, but the explanation shows that not only is it easy, it is vital!
