To my future child,
Over the years I have collected a lot of advices and kept the ones that are quite useful. Here are some simple rules so you can navigate the boring stuff of life and enjoy the less boring parts of it.
I hope that they will help you and that you may add some more to them, pass them along so people you care about will enjoy life with you, because a life in solitary and with no one to share what you know with, is a life not well lived.
When you are grieving get a massage. Touch itself is analgesic for the human mind and body. Infants may day if they are not touched and taken care of.
You don't need so much of it. If you need much sugar, it is usually a sign that something else is wrong.
Never ever be with someone that is jealous, needy or a stalker.
Don't let yourself down, humans have never been healthier, happier, wealthier than any other humans in history.
Every mistake you make when you are working for someone or a cooperation will go on your permanent record which will follow your around. Now imagine a freelancer, he/she can make a mistake but can always try to make up for it and pick up a new client.
People don't want to be happy. What people actually are looking for is to have less negative emotions. They don't want to be miserable, they want to be free of pain, free of anxiety.
Humans care about narratives and a good story, but reality only cares about results and getting things done.
Get at least 7 hours of sleep. What is considered normal ,for human beings, is from 7-9 hours of sleep. You need that much sleep in order your body and brain to be able to work at their best.
When an adult comes into the room and a children stop playing and talking is an indicator that they might be anxious or frighten. Children that aren't anxious and well adjusted will continue playing.
If you are on a caloric deficit in order to loose weight watch out for the small stuff you may do every day that will add up calories. If you put milk in your coffee that could be ok, but if you drink five coffees per day then this can add up.
