10 life lessons to live peacefully

If you look at misery as a learning tool, you will have the wisdom to handle life with ease. One may not necessarily go through misery to learn about life. Take the easy route - learn from others’ experiences. Here are some that may help you live peacefully:

1. Take control of your life. Own your mistakes and take pride in your decisions. Don't let others live your life.

2. It may seem like they got your back but the truth is you're alone from the time you were born. You have to live alone, fight alone and die alone. People just come and go in your life.

3. Always remember 99 % of the time, your mother is right.

4. Nobody can save you. You have to fight your own battles.

5. Have your own roof if you want to live with dignity.

6. Life teaches one thing over and over again. Never put your life on hold for others.

7. Having no company is always better than bad company.

8. Do not wait for your knight in shining armour. You are your own saviour.

9. Every good deed is counted, no matter how trivial it is.

10. Sometimes talking your mind with no filters on is the best way. After all you are being yourself and there is nothing wrong about it.
