You must understand that and strive for balance in your life.How?
6 E8 }* d7 ~, P" x9 ]! J Don’t undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others. 2 e P4 [# S8 F& M' T5 `6 \
It is because we are different that each of us is special.
2 s+ h3 O$ U7 y+ X Don’t set your goals by what other people deem important.Only you know what is best for you.
1 ^) }' d7 _0 |$ I! x9 b2 T! j Don’t take for granted the things closest to your heart.Cling to them as they were your life,for without them,life is meaningless.
# V; D6 L' ]! y" i Don’t let your life slip through your fingers by living in the past or for the future.
6 p9 N8 F& b% W# {) rBy living your life one day at a time you live all the days of your life. , J$ N( g5 W' t( T" ?- A5 A
Don’t give up when you still have something to give .Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
$ \. B# R4 w2 f: g1 ]& |! X% \, z3 o7 P Don’t be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect. It is this fragile thread that binds us to each together.
/ G6 O2 B* y7 L7 Q; _/ F4 j4 N Don’t be afraid to encounter risks. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.
% i$ U# @( q! S2 _' d Don’t shut love out of your life by saying it’s impossible to find. 8 R7 D) y( m$ [( @ |
The quickest way to receive love is to give; the fastest way to lose love is to give it wings.
* v; i4 m) c: `: @ R$ W9 ]5 b Don’t run through life so fast that you forget not only where you’ve been, 5 m) p L! i7 W. O
but also where you are going. f* E" V6 u: k% g
Don’t forget, a person’s greatest emotional need is to feel appreciated.
% u1 V J8 U% c! n8 S6 e Don’t be afraid to learn. Knowledge is weightless,a treasure you can always carry easily.

想象生命是一种往空中抛五个球的游戏，你把这五个球分别取名为：工作、家庭、健康、朋友和心灵，而且你要努力不让它们落地。你很快会了解到工作是一个橡皮球。
/ f5 _0 H$ j/ f) m+ X1 j如果你让它落地了，它还会反弹起来。但是，家庭、健康、朋友、和心灵这四个球是用玻璃做成的，如果你让它们掉到地上，它们将会不可避免地遭到磨损，留下印记、划痕，摔破甚至碎落一地。 4 e9 p! v# ?, p% n2 Q, t+ y; f
