No one is thinking about you as much as you are
Don’t make promises when you’re happy; don’t make decisions when you’re sad.

Don’t drink your calories. Changed my life completely and put me on a path to losing 35 Kgs.
Absolutely this one. My friend told me that and wow, the difference has been incredible.

Life: Being poor ain’t no excuse for being filthy
Work: if you’re gonna go down, take people with you. (thanks HR lady!)

start in the way you intend to continue - so don’t just accept something you can’t stand forever as you may not be able to change it. it’s much less work overall to deal with problems upfront and then not have to deal with the little consequences of ignoring them for months/years/etc.
-
don’t put it down put it away - so many messes are created by setting stuff down for a minute and never coming back until there are 30 more things on top of it and it’s an archeological dig to clean. if it takes less than a minute to put away properly then just do it immediately instead of creating hours of cleaning for you or your partner when you finally can’t stand how cluttered and dirty your place is

Working hard is pointless and everyone should go fuck themselves.
There is no point in being self defeating, I already have all the treasures and items I would get from that battle
If it’s worth doing right it’s also worth doing half-assed.
To me this means it’s better to let go of perfectionism lest it becomes paralyzing. Strive for the best conceivable result all you want but be content with the best achievable result as well.

Half of life is showing up.
Don’t take stairs with hands in your pockets.
When my brother was around 12, he was standing still, then burst into movement, had socks on while standing on tile floor and his hands in his pockets. His feet went backwards and face planted him on the tile, landed directly on his chin.
Surprisingly it didn’t break anything, just made a huge cut and spewed blood everywhere. Wild to think about it now.

Don’t be shitty.
I don’t know about best but I sure as hell remember it: When I was 13 I was at a wedding and an very drunk old man gave me some sage advice completely unprompted - “when you have sex don’t fuck her in the ass, you’ll get poop everywhere”.
Sounds like you get shitty advice.
