Im not one for sharing pointless lists or especially publishing them to my site, but this one is an exception.
The following are 25 points taken from 100 points @julien noted in a recent blog post about life, people and happiness.
These are the ones that stood out to me and if I am not already living by them, I will be incorporating into my life.
1. Spend more time around people that both challenge and respect you.
2. Remain skeptical forever.
3. Fight for what matters.
4. It’s easy for people to talk a good game, so watch how they behave instead.

6. Learn a new language.
