The Ten Commandments of Everyday life

1. Know where you are and what you are doing at every moment of the day - avoid drifting, daydreaming and fantasising.
2. Have your intention always before you -set goals for the day and at regular intervals during the day realign yourselves with them and confirm intention.
3. Keep your living and working environment clean and tidy.

4. Dispel negative emotion as a matter of psychic hygiene as you would wash your hands after coming into contact with anything unclean.

5. Be honest in deed and truthful in word – avoid exaggeration and compromising the truth for the sake of a good line.
6. Show appreciation to others at every opportunity.

7. Donate some time and effort every day to the world at large: e.g., pick up litter, feed the birds, put out water for animals, plant something – avoid becoming motivated by the gratitude of others and the expectation of reward.

8. Do not meet anger with anger.

9. Do not gossip or bitch about others, the weather, life – or indeed, anything else.

10. Do not watch TV as the default setting for free time – your mind is being controlled and your emotions manipulated.
