1.) Eat small meals every three hours. Try everything -- breast milk, zucchini fritters, yogurt, octopus balls -- but eat lightly, eagerly and often and you'll develop an incredible metabolism.
2.) If you're enjoying what you're eating, hum, clap or stop briefly and do a little dance. The chef will be delighted and it will enhance your eating pleasure
3.) Stand up and keep going each time you fall, and every day you'll get better at moving forward. (But if you plan to fall down a lot, it helps to have some padding on your butt.)
4.) Smile at babies, dogs, homeless people and anyone looking at you and not at their cell phone. They'll probably smile back.
5.) Say no when you don't want to do something. But half the time, after you say no, change your mind and give it a try.
6.) If someone asks for applause, clap. It's the easiest, cheapest way to make people happy.
7.) Trust your gut. If you like someone, pat their arm. If you don't like someone and they get in your face or try to grab you, yell.
8.) Try something new every day, but bear in mind not everything you see is food.
9.) Be curious. Open every cabinet, crawl underneath furniture, empty full drawers. Just make sure someone has locked up all the sharp objects first. And when you're out in the world, keep your eyes open and you'll probably spot something wonderful -- like a butterfly or a cloud.
10.) When you see someone you love, smile so hard you laugh out loud and occasionally topple over.
11.) Nap. read the rest!
