Ten Rules for a Successful Life

Roger D. Blackwell, Ph.D.

1.  Treat every individual you meet with respect and kindness.

 

2.  When individuals treat you with unkindness or lack of respect, reread rule #1.

 

3.  Help as many people as you can, in as many ways as you can, for as long as you can.

 

4.  If you can't say something good about someone, say nothing about that person at all.

 

5.  Love your work. People who are paid more are those who work more for more than they are paid.

 

6.  Be frugal. Save for the rainy day because rainy days always occur. What you have will be determined more by what you save than what you earn.

 

7.  Make difficult decisions based on long-term effects rather than immediate gratification. Live to learn; learn to live.

 

8.  Eat healthy and exercise regularly. You'll live longer, spend less and be happier.

 

9.  Lasting success is derived from finding out what God wants you to do and then doing it.

 

10. Love conquers everything else.
