As we strive to take hold of wellness in our lives, it is always helpful to be reminded of simple but valuable  and lasting truths. 

The following excerpt is taken from Leo Tolstoy's Calendar of Wisdom.
 
Five principles:
  • Do not postpone until tomorrow what you can do today.
  • Do not force other people to do things which you can do yourself.
  • Pride costs more than all that is necessary for food, drink, shelter or dress.
  • We suffer more from thinking about what might have happened than about what actually has happened.
  • If you lose your temper, before you do or say anything, count to ten.  If you haven't calmed down, then count to a hundred.  And if you still haven't calmed down, count to a thousand.
