Dont Sweat

I believe that rule #1 is "don't sweat the small stuff", and that rule #2 is "it's all small stuff".

Essentially, nothing is worth the conflict necessary to have it your way. Whether your child wants the blue one or the green one should never be a point of contention. Whether your wife wants to eat Chinees food or Mexican food can't be worth an argument. Is insisting on mounting the toilet paper the "right way" how you want to be remembered? I hope not. Think about this for a moment, how is winning any argument going to make your life better? Don't try to kid yourself, other than to boost your ego it's not going to; period. Life is too short to let the small things get in the way of happiness.

Relax, take a deep breath, and let it go: It's simply not that important.
