Your life doesn’t need to go through a predictable story arc. It doesn’t have to start with a dream, follow through hard work and end up in a nice home with four bedrooms. Instead it can twist and travel. You don’t have to know the final answer, you just need to act on the next step.

Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma – which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of other’s opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

Right here, right now. Mindfulness extends life infinitely. If you can appreciate this moment rather than mourn the lost ones or yearn for the yet unlived ones, you can relax into a rewarding calm. Seek out opposites.

Self-awareness is the lubricant to all social friction. If you can see yourself the way others truly see you, you are well on your way to getting along with others. In seeing yourself for what you are, you can laugh at yourself. If you can laugh at yourself, you will avoid so much anger or insult.

Realize that nobody cares, and if they do, you shouldn't care that they care. Got a new car? Nobody cares. You'll get some gawkers for a couple of weeks—they don't care. They're curious. Three weeks in it'll be just another shiny blob among all the thousands of others crawling down the freeway and sitting in garages and driveways up and down your street. People will care about your car just as much as you care about all of those. Got a new gewgaw? New wardrobe? Went to a swanky restaurant? Exotic vacation? Nobody cares. Don't base your happiness on people caring, because they won't. And if they do, they either want your stuff or hate you for it.

It was the most valuable lesson I learned about life. I matter. I matter to myself. It matters that I live. It matters that I do the things that I want to do. And in this same light, I want to share with you - You Matter. Don't wait for a near death experience for you to understand this. You matter. Even if no one else cares, no one else notices you, no one else hears what you say. You Matter. Remember that - and do things knowing that you matter. What you say matters, what you do matters, every thing about you matters.

If it is an unimportant fact, forget about it.
