21. For some reason, people who live the longest don't
worry about any of these things. They just live and enjoy their lives and naturally do things in moderation.

22. Longest-living people never "work out". But they usually have a naturally active everyday lifestyle.

23. There is so much to reality and life that we don't know. And so much we think we know but don't know.
And so much we don't know that we don't know.

24. It is important to always remember how little we know and therefore don't rely too much on logic and reasoning. Rely more on intuition and gut feeling.

25. Lots of times things are not what they seem. Don't make rigid assumptions based on appearances or what is projected.

26. Don’t trust people based solely on their title or what they say or their appearance. A devil can easily be camouflaged using those things.

27. Trust patterns in judging people and situations

"I would have" is not a good way to live your life. You think you know now, but you really don't. People fail in business all the time. Also, a different path could have lead to you being dead by now - or imprisoned or hospitalized or any number terrible things. Consider that whenever you find yourself sliding into "I would have". Be thankful for the life you've had and have.
