Doesn’t have to be a life motto. Any motto, for any application.
Mine is: “Fear is shorter than regret.”
Never break more than one law at a time.
Try to live a happy life imposing as little as possible on others.
You can’t change the past and can’t control the present. Deal with the future.
If you can’t control it, don’t worry about it.
Used to mostly keep me sane at work
If you can’t do something about a problem, worrying just gives you another problem. If you can do something about it, don’t waste energy worrying about it, just do the thing
“In doubt, reboot”
People should really learn this one
I personally need a reboot how do I go about doing this?
Follow a Ramadan or Lent fast and take as much a break from electronics as possible especially around bedtime.
I think about Roy and Moss every week at my stupid job.
“Don’t say things about someone behind their back, if you wouldn’t be prepared to say it to their face”
I like this one, but looking at it from a different angle I say nice things about people behind their backs pretty regularly that I absolutely would not be prepared to say to their face cuz toxic masculinity. Anybody have tips on how I can keep working on the opposite of this problem? 😭
Smack em on the ass and say “you’re looking good today my dude.”
Shoulder, slap the shoulder. You don’t want to get called by the HR.

Batman in an interrogation room pins joker to the wall.
Batman: “I’ve only got one rule”

Now I hate Marvell and all super hero movies but I do find that quote applies to a lot of things. You cant be a pacifist and have free and fair elections, or have open boarders and socialism, or have high tax or no tax, or strict policing or lax policing or whatever. Whatever you say is a law, or a line is something that people will exploit.
Soap doesn’t clean itself!
“Soap is soap, it’s self cleaning”
Me and my wife’s motto: Vi klarer alt, translated as We can do/endure everything. Usually accompanied by us clinking our wedding rings.
Do what you have to do before you do what you want to do .
If you go outside, have a way to get back in.
I’d rather have the ugly truth than pretty lies.
Reminds me of a line out of a book, don’t remember which one, but it was along the lines of ‘if you can’t say yes, then answer anyway, because I’d rather die with the answer than live with the question’
The most important part of the body is to think logically.
This does not make sense to me
Happy to hear that.
Damn that is a clever one
ooooooohhhhhh
If it’s not going to matter on your deathbed it doesn’t really matter.
good enough is good enough
Better is often worse than good enough, for better or for worse
Live in spite of everything.
