Exercise every single day, even when you don't feel like it.

Don't spend more money than you make.

Drink orange juice every day.

Love at first sight is not a fable.

Eat around the mold; don't go wasting food.

Your family is the most precious thing you will ever have in life.

Your life is delicate, and if you neglect yourself, you'll spoil. That's what cheese taught me.

Don't ever be afraid to be your true self.

Everyone has too many clothes. Wear what you have and quit buying more.

You must be able to forgive, even if it's difficult to do.

Save your money now and spend it later.

Love is not always easy; sometimes you have to work at it.

Find something comical in every single situation.

If you're faced with a problem, don't delay trying to figure it out. But if there's no way to figure it out, you have to forget about it.

Make sure you're doing what you love; don't be afraid to follow those dreams you have for yourself.

Explore your world and stay curious.
