If you could only give someone one advice about living in this world what would it be?

Treat others the way you want to be treated.

Don’t be an asshole.

Give and you will receive. The more you put in and give of your time, energy, passion and compassion, the more you will get back.

Live every day fully and as if it was your last.

I think “Don’t be an asshole” works great.

I would reluctantly add “but expect that others will be. Try not to hold it against them – they’re assholes.” ;-)

No one has the right to make you feel guilty based on your race, skin color, ancestry, nationality, religion, or gender.

Love as intensely as if it were the first time, every time.

live in presence, mindfully in words, thoughts deeds, allow, be , let be, love.
I love your name. It is indicative for you already living in mindfulness ?

If something seems to good to be true, it usually is.

@Arbornaut I agree on this.
Though I am mostly positive in my thinking

I agree with @jude

@shunyata Welcome to fluther :)

Do the right thing. Period.

Watch your back. Trying to the right things or good things doesn’t mean that’s what you’ll get in return.

Lol…..Good Luck….

Walk softly and carry a big stick.

You reap what you sow.

Take care of those you love.

Speak The Truth Even if Your Voice Shakes

Only divulge what can’t be used against you……

You can’t control other people, you can only control yourself.

Compassion is a strength, not a weakness.

It takes much more to show love and forgiveness especially when someone does you no good or wrongs you than it does to swing a fist.

Don’t make the mistake of imagining that anybody owes you something other than what you agreed upon face to face.

Stand for something. There are things worthy dying for.

Be a voice for those who have none.

I second (third? fourth? ) Jude on the Golden Rule and I would add “To thine own self be true”

Full quote, as the second line is not as famous as the first and an interestingly complex concept, though I’m not sure if I agree with it or not…

“This above all: to thine own self be true,
And it must follow, as the night the day,
Thou canst not then be false to any man.”
-William Shakespeare

Seek out the things that give you joy. Every day is a gift. Don’t waste that gift!
(okay, okay, so that’s more than one thing- So sue me!!)

“Hello, babies. Welcome to Earth. It’s hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It’s round and wet and crowded. At the outside, babies, you’ve got about a hundred years here. There’s only one rule that I know of, babies—God damn it, you’ve got to be kind.”

-Eliot Rosewater

The Golden rule as well and I like be true to yourself unless that involves evil of some sort!

@shunyata Thank you for the complement. I believe I am work in progress in regards to mindfulness.

@Neizvestnaya Very true! Unfortunately you will get more than a handful of not very nice things from not very nice people.
@Arbornaut Right on!

Be the change you want to see.

I don’t know of we can have two, but I have been saying this a lot lately: you get what you give.

If I am not for myself, who will be for me?
If I am only for myself, what am I?
If not now, when?

Hillel

Let us endeavor so to live that when we come to die even the undertaker will be sorry.
– Mark Twain

What about in a realistic sense? Just like @Neizvestnaya said just because you treat others right does not mean people will.

@mindful -Of course,but I can’t control how others act.I am not living my life for others.I have to answer to myself for my behaviour.

Give respect to get respect.
