GOOD TIME-KEEPING

 


Keep your clock and wake-up alarm twenty to thirty minutes ahead. This way, despite unexpected events, you will usually be in time for work and appointments.

DON'T SHOW YOUR PIN NUMBER

 


Don't let others see you putting in your pin number at an ATM - really don't.

Shield the pin number with your hand.

REPAIR YOUR CAR

 


Repair that rattle in the car before you find yourself stranded miles from home in the dark, in a secluded spot.

Car safety keeps you, fellow motorists and pedestrians safe.

YOUR CHURCH

 


Support your church - you will need your church's support one day. Don't let them find you to be a stranger.

Save. Really. The rainy day does come.

DON'T HOARD

 


Don't hoard. 

Remember: if you haven't used an item in over a year, it's probable that you don't need it.

If you no longer need an item, give that item - in good, repaired and washed condition - to someone who does need it.

There are wonderful places called Charity shops. Donate house equipment, clothing, books, CD's, DVD's, china and so on to these worthy causes.

When you need to buy something, buy a pre-loved item at a church or charity shop.

Your un-needed items thus make good income for the charity shop's worthy cause, and you make good revenue when you buy needed pre-loved items at bargain stores.

It's a win-win situation.

DON'T GET INTO DEBT

 


Don't get into debt. If you haven't got the money, save until you can pay for what is needed.

If you take a loan, you will end up paying a lot of interest over time.

WASTE NOT, WANT NOT

 


Don't waste your money - you'll cry over it years later.

MEND IN TIME

 

Do mend your clothing - it's true, "a stitch in time saves nine".

CLEANLINESS

 

Do keep yourself, your clothing, your house and your environment clean. 

Cleanliness is next to godliness.

REST

 

Have a full day of rest at regular intervals. You need to recharge your batteries. 

Abuse the wonder that is your God-given body long enough with over-work, over-stress, under-rest and wrong food and eventually poor health bill will come home to roost.

EXERCISE DUE CAUTION

 


Always exercise due caution in business dealings with others. It doesn't matter who it is - get the business deal, payment terms, contract, loan or receipt in writing. Get it correctly signed, dated and witnessed.

And keep a copy elsewhere.

PRACTISE SELF-CONTROL

 


Don't hand over the reins of your decision - making powers to the tyranny of alcohol, drugs, jealousy or hatred. You - and others - will live to regret it.

Practise self-control.
