Just off the top of my head (take what you wish, leave the rest):
When faced with your friend's partner cheating, tell the cheat they have 24 hours to tell your friend. If they don't, you can proceed with a clear conscience and tell them yourself.
NEVER lend a friend money, shoes or jewellery.
Shakespeare was right. "To thine own self be true. And it must follow, as the night the day, Thou canst not then be false to any man." Well, unless you're a sociopath...
Count to ten when tempted to respond hurtfully or angrily. Yes, it works.
The only constant in life is change. Embrace it.
The probability of someone watching you is directly proportional to the stupidity of your actions.
Never confuse your mistakes with your value as a human being. You're a perfectly valuable, creative, worthwhile person simply because you exist. And no amount of triumphs or tribulations can ever change that. Unconditional self-acceptance is the core of a peaceful mind.-St. Francis de Sales
The true measure of a man is how he treats someone who can do him absolutely no good. -Samuel Johnson, lexicographer (1709-1784)
