◆ 1: Stop negative thoughts

ByLee

One of the cultural problems in society is "I do not have my own opinion." Many of our opinions are based on superficial impressions and opinions of others and it seems that it was not thought that was taken firmly over time. The word "I do not know" is a proof that the direction of thinking is lost. Even if you change your own way of living, understanding the event exactly is sometimes more important than "correct answer".

◆ 2: Do not aim for honor, position, money, etc.

ByBart

Essayist'sPaul Graham"Fame has power enough to screw up even thinking that it is fun." Motivating fame and money motivates me to feel "the moment of living", but I can not experience thrills that I feel when I wake up and fall asleep while feeling a sense of fulfillment.

◆ 3: Become generous

ByNicola Corboy

My time and words, and being generous to others. To understand others and to understand from others, exchanging words and will is one of the most wonderful gifts of life.

◆ 4: Rest must be called quietness in my life

ByAhmad Nawawi

Even if you are busy, find time and take a walk, a bicycle or meditate. By being indulged in fantasies using such time, you can nurture creativity and sometimes come up with the best ideas. "Time to indulge in fantasy" is indispensable in tackling something with a creative idea. Also, enough sleep is an important part in life. Occasionally, sometimes you do not take too much sleep time to make it status, but it lacks respect for your body. There is no more important thing in life than health.

◆ 5: I do not believe in myself drawn by others


I understand myself as much as I do, and my figure that others draw depends only on my assumption. You are the only one who knows who you believe, what you believe.

◆ 6: Existence is much more complicated than production

ByPetri Damstén

Our existence lies in the culture which measures the value of human being by the ability on productivity and income. However, when worshiping productivity too much, there seems to be lost feelings such as "joy" and "surprise" that form a life worth living.

◆ 7: Success takes time

ByIan Foss

"Overnight success(Success in a short period of time) "There is a word, it is just like a myth, it is important to repeatedly adjust and take time to succeed. Flowers take a long time to flowering, it takes time to succeed. However, in the current flow of culture, there is a tendency to think that taking time is monotonous.

Mr. Povova's word is abstract, but since it is just the one that captures the essence of things well, it may be good to use it as advice of life.
