The cover of one of my notepads suggests ways we should live more and live less. Inspired by this message (on Friday, March 28th, 2014), I wrote a post about "Words to Live By." I have decided to make weekly updates to this post, until I start repeating myself! I promise each weekly update will contain more information than just the five new phrases though!
Readers are invited to use the comment section below, if they have new ideas of "words to live by" which would complete the phrase _____________ more. ______________ less."
Here are the ideas for this week:
Whisper more. Shout less.
Sunshine more. Stormy weather less.
Most people like sunshine more than stormy weather, although sometimes rainy days are nice! |
Show more. Tell less.
Be yourself more. Adjust to others less.*
Praise more. Criticize less.
Laugh more. Stress less. (“Anonymous”)
Smile more. Frown less.
Wash hands more. Get sick less.
Many thanks to any readers who take the time to comment.
