Life gets much easier once you accept these simple facts:

1. Life achievements are temporary: Work, wealth, accomplishments and pleasure do not provide lasting fulfillment because life is short and everything eventually fades.

2. Wisdom has its limits: Even the wisest people cannot control life or avoid death.

3. Life can feel unpredictable and unfair: Good and bad things happen to all, no one is immune.

4. Enjoy the simple gifts of life: Life is temporary so appreciate daily blessings like food, work, health and relationships.

5. Revere God and live right.
