Four Things you Should Avoid at All Costs:

1. Don't worry about things that haven't happened yet. As Seneca says, excessive worry is unnecessary.

2. Don't think you know everything; we can let it go. We don't need to have an opinion on everything or judge everything we see and hear.

3. Don't complain. Marcus Aurelius writes in his Meditations; “Don’t be overheard complaining…Not even to yourself.”. If you simply take things as they are, you'll have less to complain about.

4. Don't be too busy. Do one thing at a time and focus on what you can control to achieve your goals.
