Best advice was from my friend who passed away over 20 years ago to put money into my super as it was a government super and received a good balance when I retired. My thoughts are always with you Noelene

These pieces of advice were sent in by the lovely Ian Rogers:
"There is never a right way to do a wrong thing" and
"People who matter don't judge, and people who judge don't matter".

The best I've heard:-
We all have two lives, the second begins when we realize we only have one.
My personal one is:- Everyone's Special, no one's perfect.

No-one gave me this advice but try it for size.
Never follow the advice of anyone who has died.
If it had worked for them, they'd still be alive.

My Dad always used to say put your mind in gear before you put your mouth into action.
Best advice - how to remove sticky labels with ease - heat label with a hair dryer for a couple minutes, label will peel off easily with no mess, very clever and so easy!
My Grandad had a statue of a beautiful Owl and under the Owl's feet was a saying and he used to read it to me and told me to remember it..
"The wise old Owl that lived in an oak the more he saw the less he spoke, the less he spoke the more he heard"
My Aunt's advise "two of you working, save one wage and live on the other and you will never be broke" (Shame I never listened)

A friend once said this to me and I have passed it on to others. If you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always get what you’ve always got.
So true!

I also received many of the above. I think the one fatherly tip that has carried through in my heavy industry life. I also passed this same tip onto all my apprentices, a bit rude but it helps them remember. The tip was "Son never put your finger where you wouldn't put your willey". I have seen events or the results of accidents resulting in partial or total loss of fingers. I can count to ten without going to my toes
Was told this too late. The first time your new husband asks you where something is don’t go and find it or you will be doing it for the rest of your marriage.

When I was learning to drive, my father stressed not to insist on my "Right of Way". He said "NEVER BE DEAD, RIGHT"
My advice is something we all should be doing in order to keep safe…
Always always LOCK your car door when going out in your car and never forget to wear your seat belt. Before seat belts became compulsory mine saved my life after being hit from behind.
The best advice a friend gave me when relating how critical her mother-in-law was: Remember, when someone points at you, three fingers point back at them.
Pretty accurate comment. I’ve noticed that the most critical people have the worst faults themselves.
