Advice

What's the best piece of advice you ever gave or got?

 

[silverwhisper]

i've been fortunate to get a lot of good advice and can't pick a single one, or even a few, unfortunately.

i think the best advice i ever gave anyone was over a decade ago, i told a friend of mine that he really should date a mutual friend. they're married now and have 2 kids, last i heard.

probably the most pertinent and most heard in my youth: Life is not fair!
Damn annoying to hear, but oh so true.
One of my better ones:
smile! for you may not be here tomorrow to change the impressions you left yesterday.

From my mom and I was shocked to hear it the first time...

Test drive your potential spouse, because if you don't fit together sexually then you might have serious problems down the road.

Best gotten, from my father when I was very young, "Some people are not happy unless they are making somebody else unhappy. Stay away from them"

Best given, to my daughters, "No man will ever treat you better than he treats his mother. Moma got the best part of him and you will have to make do with whats left over. Fortunately, that is usually more than enough"

"When you get enough of it, You will do something about it."

I did.

That divorce money was the best I ever spent.

From my Dad...Most people don't know how to make decisions *following by a long dissertation of why* Very few decisions are irreversible.

For me, these two bits are in a tied.

The best is the enemy of the good.

What is important is usually not urgent.
What is urgent, is usually not important.

I don't remember exactly why, but I determined to drop out when I was in my second year of middle school, a friend of my uncle gave me the best advice I ever got, he told me I should continue my education.

relationships(especially in business)are more important that money.
Always try to find the good in people,and bring it out in them.
I don't remember who I got them from over the yearsbut they sure do work.I wish I knew at 21 what I now know at 43 wisdom oh what a concept LOL.

Don't know if I can pick just one, but I suppose that it might be the advice that one of my best friends gave me when I was going through my divorce.

To paraphrase, she said that I should try to remember that while I might not be able to control the things that my ex-husband was doing, I COULD control the way I reacted to what was happening. Helped me put things into perspective.

As for advice I've given, see the quote from Chandler in my sig.

And don't do anything that you can't spell.
