My four guiding philosophies
Pay attention.Notice what's going on around you. Notice your thoughts. Notice what catches your attention. Think about and follow things to see where they lead. If you notice something, maybe that's because it's your problem to solve, or an invitation to play and learn.
Simplify.Difficult, overcomplicated, grouchy things make life harder, and that creates more unnecessary suffering in the world. Making things faster, simpler, easier, and more fun is a great way to use your talents — in my case, noticing, listening, thinking, design, writing, clarity, and generosity.

Help others succeed.Be generous with your gifts. You will find a deep sense of meaning, and virtually unlimited opportunities to help. If you don't know where to look, just notice someone struggling (no matter how little), and do something to make it easier.
Do your best. Keep getting better.Do your best in the moment with what you have. Work on your craft, and learn new skills. Do a good job, not because someone tells you, but because of who you are. Good work contains its own reward, and tiny steps forward can build into big changes faster than you think.

I like to recommend cool and useful people, products, and techniques. This usually means sending someone a text or email, which means digging up a link or typing a description. I have started pulling these together onto one page so it's easier for me to find and send. No searching through Gmail, no retyping, and I can send help faster to more people.
