Re: How many life skills do you have?
**** that shit, this is the true measure of whether or not you can do what’s necessary:
Fundamentals
1 Accept things you can’t change, have the courage to change the things you can, and have the wisdom to discern between the two.
2 Know when to walk away / shut up before you actually need to.
3 Understand and apply the Pareto principle.
4 Don’t sweat the small stuff.
5 Tell your spouse, lover, friend or kin that whatever s/he’s wearing really doesn’t look good on him/her without causing upset.
6 Spend less than your earn unless there’s an exceptionally good reason for doing otherwise.
7 Dress and behave appropriately for the job you want, not necessarily the one you have.
8 Mean what you say and say what you mean.
9 Lead by example.
10 Follow the Kindergarten Rules and acknowledge that pretty-much everything else is a refinement of them.
Life-Enhancing
11 Giggle during a really intense sex session.
12 Cook a meal that really, really pleases.
13 Leave work at the office.
14 Put a condom on without using your hands (only applies to half the population).
15 Change a nappy without subconsciously retaining the image and then involuntarily recalling it next time you’re served paneer and spinach curry.
16 Look after stuff.
17 Learn from mistakes.
18 Know how to properly tie your lover up.
19 Don’t waste time by being disorganised.
20 Laugh.
