Head to the library or bookstore and pick out a stack of literary classics you've always wanted to read. Find out firsthand why these works continue to withstand the test of time.
Try to relax if you have butterflies in your stomach over someone new. Deep breathing and a last minute call to your best friend will prepare you for that date you've been eagerly anticipating.
It's not like you to want to tell your life story to someone you just met. If you're suddenly finding yourself compelled to do so, then you and this person might have an intense connection that's worth pursuing.
If you're tired of mainstream entertainment, explore what's going on underground. See an art house film instead of a Hollywood blockbuster or check out an indie band instead of a major label act.
Don't let others slow you down if you're rushing to meet a deadline. Tune out distractions—especially your cell phone. A friend might want to go in-depth about a problem that seems insignificant to you at the moment.
