11 Lessons from 2011

Top 11 Lessons of 2011

11. When talking to someone on the phone, it is never safe to assume that you hear correctly. Ask them to spell their location so that it is correct before writing it down for someone else who will know what it was supposed to be. 

10.  Sleep, however inconvenient, is actually still necessary to life.

9. A GPS thinks it is smarter than it actually is: it tells you to exit a perfectly good road that will take you the right direction. As soon as you get on a major road that has signs pointing to the next location, you should turn the GPS off until the next time you get lost. 

8. People are generally not capable of making good decisions after 11pm. 

7. Planning is wonderful…as long as you're willing to adapt to whatever comes your way. A typhoon, for example.

6. Good planners make life simpler, not more complicated.

5. Other people will come and go through life. Family is forever, and siblings really can be best friends.

4. Life is not about the situations that challenge you, it's about how you respond to those challenges - and how you change.

3. There's the pain of healing, the pain of staying the same and the pain of getting worse. You pick your pain.

2. God really does work miracles, and he works the most often when you least expect it.

1. There is no need to ever be dismayed; God will strengthen, help, and uphold me with His righteous right hand. (Is. 41:10)
