Merry Christmas to everyone! Let's look at some things to watch out for today on Christmas Eve.

1. Be observant. Today, some people are rushing around to grab last-day gifts before Christmas. Get a kick out of the ones that are running around frantically in a store. These people are procrastinators. Take the time to observe what you are doing so that you will not become a procrastinator like the rest of the mediocre masses that surround you on a daily basis.

2. Do not eat too much. Some people use the holidays as an excuse to eat a little too much. Please make sure that you do not go overboard because health care premiums for some people will double at the beginning of 2026. Health care costs will be too high in order to intentionally go on a feeding frenzy during this holiday season.

3. Be delightful and pleasant at all times. Some people only choose to have a pleasant disposition over the holidays. Be better than that. Decide to stay in positivity throughout the entire year.

4. Be grateful for all of the things that have happened favorably for you over the year. Take some time to reflect about all of the blessings that you have received throughout 2025.

5. Look to bring comfort to others that need an emotional pick-me-up. Help others so that you will be able to find some help when you are in a time of need.

6. Do not look to fight against your fellow man. Do not seek to fight somebody today on Christmas Eve. Chill out!

7. Always be prepared to fight. Although you will not seek to fight someone, others may try to start fights with you. Always remain alert in every situation. Practice your fighting techniques on a regular basis so that you will not be caught off guard if someone takes a swing at you. In fighting, practice your defense and your offense.

8. Consider what you need to be thankful for. Take the time to create an inventory of all the things that you are thankful for presently. Thankfulness will keep you out of negativity during these turbulent times.

9. Do not lose your heart. Do things with purpose or you will remain mired in the wilderness along with the mediocre masses around you.

10. Remain consistent. If you want to see your life change for the better, then do things in order to make it better. Doing nothing will not change your current situation.

11. Do not hold on to vain visions. Make sure that your vision for the future has meaning and a purpose attached to it. Be clear on what you want to do in the future so that you will be able to take the necessary steps to your desired destination.

12. Realize that people will always accuse you of something. Do what you need to do because people will accuse you of doing something no matter what. Stay focused on your path instead of the windbags around you and keep moving forward.

13. Errors occur from lack of knowledge. Acquiring knowledge will minimize the amount of mistakes that you will make on a daily basis.

14. Stay out of greed. A person in greed is a person that remains anxious over the future. To eliminate anxiety, do not seek to exploit others for your personal gain.

15. To grow in life, realize that you must leave the past behind. You cannot change what has happened in the past. However, you can change your future. Continue to go forward and stop looking back.

16. Always seek to grow. Find growth in everything that you do.

17. Stay away from women that murder their children.

Happy Holidays!
