1. **Your 20-years-older self would love today.** Enjoy now.
2. **Pause before going negative.** Is it worth my energy?
3. **Don't take things personally.** Other people's emotions are just information — don't placate.
4. **Don't wait.** Start today.
5. **Nobody owes you anything.** You owe everything to yourself.
6. **You change what happens next.** Move forward despite the past.
7. **Other people's BS isn't about you.** Don't let them make it yours.
8. **Today is a good day.** Keep a positive outlook.
