Every hour you spend on your rear end ... saps your energy and ruins your health.

Buying experience such as going out to dinner or taking a vacation increases our own wellbeing and the wellbeing of others. Experiences last while material purchases fade.

When we get at least six hours of daily social time, it increases our wellbeing and minimizes stress and worry. The six hours includes time at work, at home, on the telephone, talking to friends, sending e-mail, and other communication.

Doing for others may be the only way to create lasting well-being.

What works for one persons needs is almost always very different from the next.

If you spend your life trying to be good at everything, you will never be great at anything.

Making better choices takes work. There is a daily give and take, but it is worth the effort.
