The 10 rules of Ikigai:

1. Stay active; don't retire.

2. Take it slow: "walk slowly and you'll go far."

3. Don't fill your stomach. Less is more when it comes to eating for a long life.

4. Surround yourself with good friends. Friends are the best medicine.

5. Get in shape for your next birthday. Water moves; it is at its best when it flows fresh and doesn't stagnate.

6. Smile. A cheerful attitude is not only relaxing - it also helps make friends.

7. Reconnect with nature.

8. Give thanks. To your ancestors, to nature... to your friends and family.

9. Live in the moment. Stop regretting the past and fearing the future.

10. Follow your ikigai. If you don't know what your ikigai is yet, your mission is to discover it.

10 BRUTAL TRUTHS THAT EVERYONE NEEDS TO KNOW.

1. You're going to die and you have no idea when.

Stop pretending that you're invincible. Acknowledge the fact of your own mortality, and then start structuring your life in a more meaningful way.

2. Your material wealth won't make you a better or happier person.

Even if you're one of the lucky ones who achieves his or her materialistic dreams, money only amplifies that which was already present.

3. Your obsession with finding happiness is what prevents its attainment.

Happiness is always present in your life--it's just a matter of connecting to it and allowing it to flow through you that's challenging.

4. Donating money does less than donating time.

Giving your time is a way to change your perception and create a memory for yourself and others that will last forever.

5. You can't make everyone happy, and if you try, you'll lose yourself.

Stop trying to please, and start respecting your values, principles, and autonomy.

6. Your achievements and successes won't matter on your deathbed.

When your time has come to transition from this reality, you won't be thinking about that raise; you'll be thinking about the relationships you've made--so start acting accordingly.

7. Your talent means nothing without consistent effort and practice.

Some of the most talented people in the world never move out from their parent's basement.

8. Nobody cares how difficult your life is, and you are the author of your life's story.

Stop looking for people to give you sympathy and start creating the life story you want to read.

9. Investing in yourself isn't selfish. It's the most worthwhile thing you can do.

You have to put on your own gas mask to save the person sitting right next to you.

10. Time is your most valuable asset--you need to prioritize how you spend it.

You have the power and responsibility to decide what you do with the time you have, so choose wisely...

THE S*X YOU MUST NOT HAVE.

1. You must never agree to have s*x with a married man no matter what he promises or professes. Never!

2. Never agree to have s*x with your boss. If the harassment becomes too much, resign and trust God for a better job.

3. If God put people under your care to mentor, it is better you die than to have s*x with them. Never take advantage of God's people no matter what.

4. Don't have s*x with a married woman. If you are getting too much attached via chatting, official or academic rapport, break up the closeness or whatever name you have for it.

5. Never have s*x with your lecturers. S*x for grades or marks is for nonentity. You are not. Never must you be.

6. If you are a marketer, never agree to sleep with a prospective client just to meet your official target. Never!

7. Don't have s*x with your in-laws. If he or she stays with you and you are finding it difficult to resist the pull, let him or her leave. I mean latest tomorrow.

8. Don't have s*x with your neighbour or colleague. A neighbour is a neighbour. A colleague is a colleague. Don't get your life more complicated.

9. Don't have s*x with your platonic friend. If the relationship is no longer platonic, break up the thing.

10. God created s*x to be between male and female. Stay away from having s*x with your same gender. God is against homos*xuality / Lesbianism and Beastialism.

11. Don't have s*x with your close siblings or relatives that God forbid marriage with. In**st is vile.

12. Don't have s*x with your girlfriend. Don't have s*x with your boyfriend. God did not create s*x for such relationships. He created it for MARRIAGE.

The only s*x you should have is with your legally married partner.

And it causes the person excruciating pain. The person immediately throws the snake away and the snake falls back into the burning flame.
At this point the person looks around and finds a metal stick He uses the stick to save the snake from the flames

Another person who was watching the incident approached the person and asked him:
"This snake bite you! Why are you trying to save his life?"

The first man replied: "The nature of the snake is to bite, but it will not change my nature, and my nature is to help."

Don't change your behavior because of someone's bad nature..or getting hurt from others. Do not lose the purity of your mind.
Learn to work with caution.

there's a chapter Huxley talks about Books

👉🏾 BOOKS. These are only needed for reference and factual information. Reading in itself is profoundly antisocial. And, although there is little danger of anyone actually reading Shakespeare, his works are especially egregious in provoking time wasting thoughts."Do they read Shakespeare?" asked the Savage as they walked, on their way to the Bio-chemical Laboratories, past the School Library. "Certainly not," said the Head Mistress, blushing. "Our library," said Dr. Gaffney, "contains only books of reference. If our young people need distraction, they can get it at the feelies. We don’t encourage them to indulge in any solitary amusements."
