After long careful consideration about some of the habitual things in life, I have listed down a few things we normally tend to do and then repent or some of the things we do not do for which we suffer later. Here’s some of it I’ve jotted down out of personal experience. I hope this would provide you a chance, an opportunity to realize and consider yourself very lucky for STILL having the time to mold yourself. It IS always better late than never, isn't it?
This is no 'dos & donts' of life. It is neither 'the perfect way to happy living' but if you think it over, it is only a small step towards changing yourself to a happy you.
Things you should avoid doing
Never lose self respect – NEVER
Never show you’re hurt or that you have problems – you really don’t wanna know what sort of problems people around you have
Have NO doubts about the person who truly loves you – the first point of suspicion kills the relationship
Stop worrying unnecessarily – about anything. There’s no cure to it.
Stop forceful expectations – if it’s a no, it’s a NO. That’s it.
Stop lying to parents – get over it if you’re already sinking, else never even go near
Stop cribbing over the past – else you’ll have a lifelong nightmare to remember
Stop cribbing over what’s not achieved – try working out a way instead
Stop crying – so often. Your tears are more precious than the person you’re shedding for.
Do not unnecessarily intrude into anybody’s personal life – even your best friend’s because there will come a time when even the thin line breaks
Do NOT advice when not asked for – you wouldn’t like receiving it either
Never keep your mind idle – the devil starts his acts and works your head off over all the issues listed above, one by one
Things you should start doing now
Keep smiling – it says a lot about you
Laugh a lot – at the silliest of jokes cos’ the art is slowly dying
Have your head over your shoulders – never high, never low
Be a good listener – you will understand the person better
Keep yourself happy, first – that’s the best gift you can give yourself
Make others happy around you – NO MATTER WHAT
Learn as many things as you can – you may not be able to when you want to
Expect less – better still, expect nothing
Forget what’s not required to be remembered – else be prepared to face the same when someone points it out to you
Keep a distance – with everyone, it saves a lot of heartache
Just think of the present – there’s still 24 hours to tomorrow
Give yourself and others enough TIME and SPACE – everyone’s equally frustrated as you are
Try to analyze the situation – never jump to conclusions of your choice and get hurt
Try to remember things – the good ones, the best ones, and smile at it when you do
Fight fear – at the first point. It’s much smaller then.
Be prepared for the unexpected – especially when you are expecting the most out of something or someone

hey queen...
thanks for stopping by and for your lovely thoughts there! i agree to your point about expressing your hurt feelings.. but then what i felt when i put it down was... how good is it if you keep telling about how much you're hurt in life... it kinda feels you're gathering sympathy after a point! wouldnt it? that's how i put it.. not about when someone hurts u and you keep mum. that's passing, isnt it? anyways... everybody have their perspectives...
am glad you liked it.. keep visiting!!

Nice thoughts strung together neatly.
Now never show hurt - how is it possible not to show hurt? Esp in a close personal relationship shouldn't the other person be made aware that he/she hurt your feelings? And I tend to lean towards Charuavi on the tears. Many a times tears are the sole consolation for grief.
The rest of the points are all great.
Keep writing.
