    1. Be comfortable in your own skin.
    2. Know why you have boundaries, and keep the good ones.
    3. They either want you to listen, or to help. They rarely want both.
    4. It’s only a “Teaching Moment” if they want to be taught. Otherwise you’re just annoying.
    5. Try not to confuse politeness for friendship.
    6. Chew each bite of food into a paste before swallowing, with your eating utensil on the table or the hand meal out of your hand.
    7. The true you is the you that you do when no one’s watching. (See #1…)
    8. A happy life is 51% happy. Settle for nothing less, strive for something sustainably more.
    9. If you’re feeling depressed take a step back and make sure you haven’t accidentally surrounded yourself with assholes.
    10. Only ever brush and floss the teeth you want in your head when you’re old.
