Take 20 minutes by yourself at the beginning of each day. Live above small troubles by losing yourself in big, worthwhile things. Grow every day: Life is a game keep your eye on the ball rather than on the scoreboard.
Have the power to see things through; keep remembering that most accomplishments are 3/4 drudgery and 1/4 joy.
Alternate your interests. It is better to be busy than bored. Balance your life with work, play, love and worship. Be gracious to others; do kind deeds beyond the call of duty; and remember that every person is fighting a battle.
Work and cooperate with God, praying that God will do something “through” you rather than “for” you.
