******************************************************

Return everything you borrow.

Stop blaming other people.

Live within your means and within your seams.

Be humble.

Listen more; talk less.

Every day, do something nice and try not to get caught.

Strive for excellence, not perfection.

Be on time.

Don't criticize anyone for 24 hours.

Be kind to other people.

Be even kinder to unkind people.

Take time to be alone.

Admit it when you make a mistake.

Understand and accept that life isn't always fair.

Let someone cut ahead of you in line.

Don't argue.

Know when to say something.

Know when to keep your mouth shut.

Don't make excuses.

Don't sweat the small stuff.

Excellent words of wisdom. Some of those hit close to home;

Strive for excellence, not perfection. Tricky for us "Type A's".

...Be even kinder to unkind people. I need to remember that!

BTW, this is an awesome section on an awesome health care forum!

I'm glad they touch you in a warm spot

With all the stress and abuse nurses deal with at work, I'd like to hope they can come here, read a bit, laugh a bit and forget about work for at least a short time.

Some comic relief and thought provoking poems work for me. Keeps me going back to work again and again
