THE COMMON SENSE COWBOY’S 12 RULES FOR LIFE<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The secret to a long life is getting up every day with a purpose. Young or old, working or retired, everyone needs a purpose so find yours.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Never betray trust, because trust is like virginity. Once lost, it\u2019s impossible to get back.<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Everything breaks sooner or later. So, learn how to fix things.<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. The measure of a man is when he does the right thing even when no one is watching. If you do the wrong thing and nobody saw you do it, it is still wrong.<\/span><\/li>\n
  5. Don\u2019t waste time thinking about what might have been. Put the \u201cmight have beens\u201d in the same trash can reserved for the \u201cwouldas\u201d, the \u201cshouldas\u201d and the \u201ccouldas\u201d. Then get busy with the \u201cdoin\u201d.<\/span><\/li>\n
  6. A fancy education might gain you some knowledge, but only hard life experiences will gain you wisdom. A PhD won\u2019t help you fix a flat tire.<\/span><\/li>\n
  7. Be wary of the person who tells you they can get you a burger and fries for nothing. There is no free lunch.<\/span><\/li>\n
  8. Your word is your bond, and your handshake seals the deal.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  9. If you shake hands with a politician, be sure to count your fingers when you let go to make sure you still have all five. (See above)<\/span><\/li>\n
  10. Don\u2019t pray for things. The Almighty is not Amazon or Costco and faith delivers salvation and comfort not packages.<\/span><\/li>\n
  11. There is right and there is wrong. There are no loopholes and the only thing in between are excuses.<\/span><\/li>\n
  12. The Good Lord gave us each a certain number of seconds, minutes, hours and days, but he didn\u2019t give us our expiration date. Use your time wisely and live life to the fullest.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
