From the older poster to the younger! (advice)

50% of success is about turning up.
Man can embody truth but he cannot know it.
When in an unfamiliar place, look back as you go along, then you'll be able to find your way back.

Its can i have, not can i get.

Ahem, it's 'May I have?'

 

[SouthCoastOwl]

Proper - other adjectives are available.

 

[Two Professors]

You only get one chance at life,and it doesn't last forever,so make the most of what you've got without hurting anybody else.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Go spend a year in Oz before you get tied down and assume you have to live your life in the rain whining about everything

 

[gripper stebson]

Put down your phone for five minutes.

 

[looney]

Judge people on what they do and not what they say, learn body language.

Learn to keep the phone in your pocket for when really needed and not for goofing of on.

Imitate/copy success and learn from failure but leave it well behind.

Ignore designations like age and preach if you like. The difference between confidence and arrogance is experience

The difference between stupidity and bravery is perspective, and hindsight..

Love people not things.

You sir are a genius and have discovered the meaning of life.

Can't claim any credit I'm afraid. The fuller advice given to me a long time ago was along the lines of:

“Love people, not things; use things, not people & don't get them mixed up''

It's a sound touchstone methinks.

 

[Megazone]

Post every post as if it's your last.

All the best.

For ANY big decision in life, job, relationship, friendship, commercial decisions, anything that may have a lasting effect, come to a decision then sleep on it and see if you feel the same the next day. Then do what is necessary.

Thank you, it's very good advice.

Think you right

If at all possible, try very hard to avoid using the word "peng"

TBF most of mine could well be my last!

Love people not things.
Look after your health.
Enjoy the moment.

Any advice for when you love people but they consistently hate you? Or if the moment is usually awful?

 

[Wilko]

Do a job you love, not one that just pays well
Travel whenever you can
Do not change yourself to be with someone
Always keep some independence, your own hobbies and time
Do not be afraid to admit your weaknesses
Do not be afraid to admit you were wrong
Do not be stubborn, apologise if you need to
Always have a new goal
Push yourself out your comfort zones

Focus on looking after your health.

 

[Colonel Angus]

why set the boundary for advice at 50?

This means that 50-year-olds on this thread are now dispensing advice to 49-year-olds. This is utter madness!
