What Best advice have you been given?

Have you ever been blessed enough to get advice that helped in untold situations, eg: bit your lip? I used to be quick to express judgement opinions but sometimes it's better to stay reserved?





I was advised sometimes it's better to 'bit my lip?' it helps cus you see a bigger picture then find a better way of dealing with actions, situations!What Best advice have you been given?
My grandad once told me to pick my battles wisely. As I get older I realise it was a sound piece of advice.





Also, when I was pregnant and discussing tantrums with another mum, she said to me





'Remember, Shakespeare never plays to an empty house.'





Meaning - if you walk away from a tantrum, thus denying your child the audience and attention they crave, they will soon come to realise there is little point in continuing.





Note: This rarely works in public, as other people apparently were not blessed with said sage words, and do insist on having a good old look/passing comment/providing my son with an audience!What Best advice have you been given?
Definitely. One piece of wisdom I was blessed with was bestowed by an icon in the leadership world. What he told me:





';Don't ever hold yourself back.';





Now, out of context that looks a bit odd. He wasn't suggesting to just let everything fly. Rather, what he was telling me was to not limit myself. Don't you ever be the reason you don't succeed. Do what it takes, and don't hold yourself back.





This was great advice, but it took a lot of time to figure it out. Now, 4 or so years later, I own my own company and have really surpassed what I thought was possible for myself.
Yes you are right.





Especially at times when you are about to say something mean to someone its better to just zip the mouth and control it!





If you have some good advice to give then give it, like example helping ur brother to stop smokeing, but its very difficult in some situations and we shy away, i do it to!





We need to know when to talk and we need the courage to talk, and we need to also control our impulsive outbursts of talk, if u understand me!
I've been given a lot of valuable advice over the years but here's one I can really relate to:


I'm not particularly religious but this hits home 'Thank God for unanswered prayers, because they are some of His greatest gifts'. Sometimes we wish for things that aren't truly right for us, whatever we may think at the time and we may even pray for that thing with everything we have but never get it. Then one day in the future we will look back and see that it was for the best after all, life turned out just fine without it and had we got what we wanted, when we wanted it, we would probably be suffering for it now. Life does work itself out in the end, you just need to have a little patience. x
my mum told me that things in life get easier as you get older- may sound strange but as a kid I worried about the strangest things, like paying bills- both my parents paid their bills by direct debit so I dont have a clue why I was worrying about where to live- and being seriously concerned about not having enough money to buy a house- at 6, but thats what I was doing.





My mum told me- as I was panicing about my GCSEs and thinking if I couldnt do my GCSEs (I got all a-cs but had it in my head I was going to fail), how was I going to be able to cope with a job or pay bils...etc, my mum told me it all gets easier as I get older, that it wouldnt always feel as tough as it felt at that moment and that I would find things easier as time went by.





I guess it sounds pretty obvious now, but at 15 I really couldnt see it that way, I could never imagine it ever getting any eaiser, let alone me being able to cope with what life had in store. It helped me sleep that night anyway!
love as though you have never been hurt. i have not achieved that, though. past hurts come into the picture too much. so, i need to take my own advice. what do you think our relationships would be like if we were able to love as if we had never ever been hurt? I also like the advice, to thine own self be true..which means sometimes we will say nothing.


with love,r
Don't ever go to sleep or leave the house angry at your significant other.


Its hard to make up but if something were to happen like death how bad would you feel?
