Too many for me to remember!

My own life rules that I carry around (for a healthy life, I hope)
are:

- know what you want
- know what you need
- don't make assumptions
- don't take anything personally
- be impeccable with your word
- do your best

(The last four of these items I learned from a Toltec Indian.)
