These have also often been posted as the Dalai Lama’s 18 (or 19 !) Rules for Living.

However, please note that these “19 rules for living” were not authored by His Holiness the Dalai Lama. They were taken from a book by Brown and Brown called “Life’s Little Instruction Book” and spread around the Internet mis-attributed to His Holiness.
