Sing! It feels good, increases your oxygen levels, can improve your lung and respiratory function, and all sorts of other wonderful things.

A dash of strong black coffee in any chocolate cakes, cookies, brownies, frostings, or pastries. A dash of almond extract in any vanilla cakes, cookies, brownies, frostings, or pastries. I don’t know why it works, I just know it works like a charm.

Green (Granny Smith) apples and (sharp) cheddar cheese

apparently not many people had this growing up but it'll always be one of my favorite snacks.

I shouldn’t have put my finger in there.

The key to happiness is being thankful for what you have. It’s ok to strive to do even better. But remember so many have it way worse. Travel to other parts of the world as much as you can, so you can fully realize our way of life is not the only or necessarily the best way. People who have a lot less can be happier than you are. Once you realize you have enough, you have everything you need to be happy.

How to talk to, and make friends with, complete strangers in person rather than over a digital interface.

Most younger people I meet are so afraid when a stranger approaches them and starts a conversation. Most of the time they won't even look the person in the eye, or just give short, one-word answers.

Sure, sometimes you get a creep, but most of the time it's just someone that wants to talk. Hell, you might find a really good friend out of the experience.

Start to think about your retirement, and start planning for your retirement. Does your job offer a pension plan? If not, get one asap. It is never too late to start. You don't want to be 65 and still working because you didn't plan better.

Save some, but at the same time, enjoy life. I'm a spender, but I still sock away money each pay because you never know what will happen.

On the other hand, my dad was a saver. He finally decided to splurge and ordered his dream car, and he and my mum began plans on their dream house. My father died before he ever got to take possession of the car or before the house began being built. That's why I say please also enjoy life. Don't squirrel everything away because you might be unfortunate enough to not reap the rewards like my dad.

The sooner you start life insurance and a pension, the cheaper it will be. My life insurance has been the same price since 1990. Also, get on the property ladder as soon as you can - don't waste money on rent if you can avoid it.

Humility

That it is our differences that makes the world interesting. Accept and respect yourself for who you are and do not worry too much about what other people might think of you, your looks, your preferences (as long as you are not hurting yourself or anyone else). Let them think what they want. Fingers are pointed by those that are afraid to be themselves.
