How to make yourself miserable:
1. Make a list of your problems. Be sure to do so first thing in the morning so you can get started focusing on them right away.

3. Feel sorry for yourself. It's you against the world, and if you don't, who will?

5. Compare yourself to others. How else will you measure your own success? Keep your eyes open and don't become complacent or satisfied with what you have or who you are. Someone out there has more and is better, never forget that.
6. Avoid absolutes, morality is all relative. The only real truth is inside of you, and what's right for you is all that matters.
7. Stand up for yourself, first and foremost. Never mind other people- they'll take care of themselves.

9. Be sure to keep up on the news, TV and social media. You need to stay in touch and be current. If you have time afterwards, then read your bible. You can always do that later because it stays the same and you aren't missing anything.
