The Rules for Being Human
From
If Life is a Game, These are the Rules
Cherie Carter Scott, Ph.D.
RULE # 1
YOU WILL RECEIVE A BODY.
You may love it or hate it, but it will be yours for the duration of your life on Earth.
RULE # 2
YOU WILL BE PRESENTED WITH LESSONS.
You are enrolled in a full-time informal school called “life.” Each
day in this school you will have the opportunity to learn lessons. You
may like the lessons or hate them, but you have designed them as part
of your curriculum.
RULE # 3
THERE ARE NO MISTAKES, ONLY LESSONS.
Growth is a process of experimentation, a series of trials, errors, and
occasional victories. The failed experiments are as much a part of the
process as the experiments that work.
RULE # 4
A LESSON IS REPEATED UNTIL LEARNED.
Lessons will be repeated to you in various forms until you have learned
them. When you have learned them, you can then go on to the next
lesson.
RULE # 5
LEARNING DOES NOT END.
There is no part of life that does not contain lessons. If you are alive, there are lessons to be learned.
RULE # 6
“THERE” IS NO BETTER THAN “HERE.”
When your “there” has become a “here,” you will simply obtain a “there” that will look better to you than your present “here.”
RULE # 7
OTHERS ARE ONLY MIRRORS OF YOU.
You cannot love or hate something about another person unless it reflects something you love or hate about yourself.
RULE # 8
WHAT YOU MAKE OF YOUR LIFE IS UP TO YOU.
You have all the tools and resources you need.
What you do with them is up to you.
RULE # 9
YOUR ANSWERS LIE INSIDE YOU.
All you need do is look, listen, and trust.
RULE # 10
YOU WILL FORGET ALL THIS AT BIRTH!
You can remember if you want by unraveling the double-helix
of inner knowing.
These rules apply to all humans, regardless of gender, race,
nationality or religion. At our essence, we are all human beings
striving to make sense out of life on planet Earth. We can choose to
focus on our differences, or we san focus on our similarities. Birth,
learning, overcoming challenges, dealing with differences, adversity,
pain, joy, loneliness, love, and the pursuit of happiness are all human
experiences.
