[00:01.93]071.Life Is a Game [00:13.32]Image life as a game in which you are playing some five balls in the air. [00:18.68]You name them - work, family, health, friends and spirit, and you’re keeping all these balls in the air. [00:27.52]You understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. [00:33.51]But the other four balls are made of glass. If you drop one of these, [00:38.23]it will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, damaged or even broken into pieces. [00:44.45]They will never be the same. You must learn to strive for balance in your life. How? [00:51.62]Don’t undermine your worth by comparing yourself to others. It is because we are different that each of us is special. [01:00.06]Don’t set your goals by what other people consider important. Only you know what is best for you. [01:07.74]Don’t take for granted the things closest to your heart. Hold on to them as you would to life, [01:14.33]for without them, it’s meaningless. [01:17.56]Don’t give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying. [01:26.49]Don’t be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect. It is this fragile thread that binds us to each together. [01:35.73]Don’t be afraid to encounter risks. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave. [01:43.25]Don’t shut love out of your life by saying it’s impossible to find. [01:48.31]The quickest way to receive love is to give it; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly; [01:55.56]and the best way to keep love is to give it wings. [01:59.89]Don’t forget, a person’s greatest emotional need is to feel appreciated. [02:06.02]Don’t be afraid to learn. Knowledge is weightless, a treasure you can always carry easily. [02:13.22]Don’t use time or words carelessly. Neither can be retrieved. [02:19.42]Don’t let life slip through your fingers by living in the past or in the future. [02:24.68]By living your life one day at a time, you live all the days of your life. [02:30.68]Don’t run through life so fast that you forget not only where you’ve been, but also where you are going. [02:37.76]Life is not a race, but a journey to be enjoyed slowly each step of the way. [02:43.61]Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift. That’s why we call it - the present.
