Simple Rules to Live By: Your Personal Guide to a Better, Happier Life

By Jerry D. Glass Sr.

This book could change your life, it is an inspirational book written to provide guidance to young and old alike. Everyone that reads this enjoyable book will benefit and gain valuable insight to living well, how to be a winner and take control of your life. The main theme of the book tells you that you are in charge of your life and you control your future. There are over one thousand rules or bits of advice that will help guide you through life, avoid some of life's pitfalls, and help you to develop a positive mental attitude. The rules are sometime serious and at times humorous. Life doesn't come with a set of instructions or a set of rules. Each of us must learn as we go along. We learn the hard way, by making mistakes and learning from those mistakes. We may be told and taught how to do things but we have a desire to do it ourselves. Each of us it seems is reinventing the wheel all over again; we must learn the lessons of life for ourselves. We find it hard to take the advice of our parents, teachers, or others that have gone this way before us. I hope this book will in a small way help make your journey through life a little easier. If you will take the opportunity to apply just a few of these rules to your life maybe you will avoid reinventing the same wheels I reinvented a long time ago. I have been around for over sixty years and in that time I have learned a few things and formed some opinions and my own way of thinking and looking at things. Many times, I have told my wife, "I must be the dumbest man or the smartest man in this county because no one I know thinks like I do". These rules are not listed in any order of importance. I often think of a rule or subject then I expand on it and try to include all of the sub-rules I can think of under that first rule. You may find rules that seem out of place and others that don't make sense at all. I assure you they all make sense, think about them and you may just figure it out. Most of these rules are my original ideas, many are just common sense. These rules cover many subjects as diverse as personal motivation, money, attitudes, relationships, management, leadership, and how to get along with the spouse, boyfriend, or girlfriend. I want you to have fun with these rules. Look and see if these rules fit your life. I believe that if many of the more serious rules are applied to your life they will help make life better for you. Life goes in circles and that what goes around comes around. A person reaps what they have sown, Karma happens. You are the master of your future and you decide your course in life. Your life is not planned out in a cosmic play; there are choices you will make that will determine your future.
