10 Rules of Zen

1 -- Let go of comparing.
You have your own life to worry about.

2 -- Let go of competing.
Unless you are competing in a competition you are not in competition with anyone, perhaps only yourself.

3 -- Let go of judgments.
Most of the time you don't know the whole story.

4 -- Let go of anger.
It is okay to be angry but don't swell on it.

5 -- Let go of regreats.
What is done is done. You cannot change it. Learn from it and move on.

6 -- Let go of worrying.
Worrying takes away from the present and doesn't do anything for the past or future.

7 -- Let go of blame.
Blaming yourself or others won't help anything. Look for solutions instead.

8 -- Let go of guilt.
You can feel guilty but only for a limited time. Don't let it eat you up inside.

9 -- Let go of fear.
Fear most of the time is worse than what you are afraid of.

10 -- Have a proper belly laugh.
Trying to follow all of these is pretty darn hard and you'll mess up a lot.
