Average Americans: Learn something new every day, maybe a new word or new historical fact.
Baby Boomers: Stop worrying and love computers! Learn how to use new technology to your advantage.
Everybody: Remind yourself to treat others as you wish to be treated.
Hoarders: Get rid of any clothes or shoes you have not worn in the past couple years. Give these items to charity.
Older people: Get out of the fast lane and make it a point to teach a younger person something you know or know how to do.
Younger People: Be especially kind and courteous to older people. One day, you will be old too!
