Ten Rules For Being Human
By Cherie Carter-Scott, PhD
Broadway Book, New York, 1998

The Big Idea

This #1 New York Times bestseller offers some useful and understandable advice that can be applied to many situations. The idea of life as a series of lessons can help to put things into perspective and add to anyone’s ability to deal with setbacks and reach their full potential.

Key ideas

Rule one - You will receive a body

Carter-Scott encourages readers to make peace with their body, so that it can effectively serve its purpose and share its valuable lessons. Acceptance or rejection of your body only carries weight in your own mind, and your perception has no bearing on how your body actually looks, so why not choose the ease of acceptance rather than the pain of rejection? The choice is yours. Be able to easily find a way to the core of your essential value, find and be able to rediscover a path to that source. Your body will honor you when you honor it with diet and exercise.

Rule two - You will be presented with lessons

Each day in the school of life you will have the opportunity to learn custom designed lessons. You will be presented with all the lessons that you specifically need to learn, whether you choose to learn them or not is entirely up to you. Don't worry about the disparity between others' lessons and yours, you will only be faced with lessons that you are capable of learning and are specific to your own growth.

See these lessons as gifts, or guides along your path toward living as your authentic self. See the loss of a job as an opportunity to learn the lesson of flexibility and resourcefulness instead of a catastrophe. Realize that you have a choice. You can either continue with the resistance and feel badly or you can learn whatever the lesson is there to teach you.

This choice allows you to see that you have control over your resistance and how you choose to deal with life's challenges. What perception of unfairness holds you back?In the state of grace you trust in yourself and the universe. You can celebrate other people's blessings, knowing that their gifts are right and appropriate for them and that the universe has your gift right around the corner.Every situation in which you do not live up to your own expectations is an opportunity to learn something important about your own thoughts and behaviors.
