chocolate pudding on a white shirt

is no big deal, as long as you enjoyed the pudding and have stain remover...right?! Life is too short to worry about making a mess. Live like there will always be a stain remover for you mistakes. Don't worry about screwing up, failing, or disappointing people. If you live with out fear of failure you will go farther in life then the people who don't like disappointing there peers.
You have to be responsible, trustworthy, honest and dependable to succeed. We have been told to have those traits ever since we got our first job at age 14 or earlier. My question is, why didn't anyone tell us to be funny, outgoing, loving, unique, and happy? I think that although the first four characteristics is incredibly important, the last five are just as valuable.
Funny people get remembered. If you make someone laugh, you break the ice, you make them comfortable, you make a good first impression. People with a good sense of humor see the funny side to everything, which is an incredible characteristic to own. Life is too short to take serious.
Outgoing individuals always get the best opportunities. It's always the people that step up to the plate to try something new that have the best life experiences. They are the ones that give the best advice because they already have tried everything. They are not scared to live life to the fullest and take chances, they are leaders and are willing to make mistakes and find a way to fix them.
Loving people have the best relationships. Not necessarily only romantic relationships but all interactions in general. Loving people come off as warm, welcoming, inviting, understanding and calming. Loving people are the ones that have clients/strangers/friends come to them for a pick me up, a smile, a hug. They know that they can count on a loving person to be there for them and give them support when they are down. Loving people make the world a better place.
Unique men and women are always the one's that get stared at. They have a different style, a different personality, a different view on life. They are the misfits, the originals, the leaders. They don't care what people think about them, they do what their mind and body tell them to do and are great at expressing themselves.  Unique people get remembered, they get recognized, and get praised for going against the grain. They are the ones that bring new ideas to the group and are always pushing for change in the world.
Last but not least, Happy people are true hero's. Happy people smile when every one else is frowning. Happy people stay optimistic when things start going down hill and they never let the little things ruin their day. Happy people are the ones that smile at strangers on the street and are truly day makers in the community.
So, this is me..telling you.. to be funny, outgoing, loving, unique, and happy and you will succeed, make people smile, and be remembered by all.
