Although, my point of sharing this isn’t about that – but it’s about the 47 list of instructions for life – that – may or may not be applicable today as 2000s and the millennials may not consider doing. While reviewing this list too – I for one have some that aren’t true to my values anymore.

I’ll share my own thoughts in green fonts for some that don’t ring truth to me anymore.

Feel free to comment below what are your thoughts. Mine are those in green.
