Advice To Live By

As a philosopher
Geser Kurultaev wants to say (and judge, and explain) these points clearly:
"1. Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully"
Not necessary. Not in any case. For instance - what about if this people do not deserve it? "2. Memorize your favorite poem"
Well, it's alright. As a poet (not only as a philosopher), I like it and I did it.
"3. Don't believe all you hear, spend all you have, or sleep all you want"
Sure. Doubt everything, especially when you have no enough information to make the reasonable conclusion!
Savings are good, but the good investment is better.
Moderate sleep is probably the best."4. When you say, "I love you," mean it."
Sometimes it's okay to say it, without mean it, because it helps to make somebody happy. And there is a real possibility in the future really to become love him/her. Depends..."5. When you say, "I'm sorry," look the person in the eye."
Who knows is it the optimal way? Someones prefer people to hug them when they're saying "I'm sorry" or to say it kneeling 
... Depends..."6. Be engaged at least six months before you get married and get your parents approval."
It's desirable. Not every time possible."7. Believe in love at first sight"
Why? It's just a special case and it's not love, it's mostly infatuation.
"8. Never laugh at anyone's dreams."
Be polite, but if the dreams are crazy, harmful, self-destroying...? Then the reaction is necessary. The constructive criticism is necessary with or without laugh."9. Love deeply and passionately. You might get hurt, but it's the only way to live life completely."
Don't think that the completeness of the life depends not only of the deep and passionate love. And the successful love is not every time the passionate one.10. In disagreements, fight fairly. No name calling.
Yes. Be reasonable, objective and civilized! To be continued...
