Write down, and keep track of simple goals.
Exercise the mind as well as the body.
Lower responses to stress and complications.
Learn from mistakes and never make them again.
Nuture the love I hold in my heart.
Expect the best of myself.
Simplify the way I live to focus on what is important.
Savor every amazing moment of my fortunate existance.

Great read!
I like this. Short and to the point. There is only one suggestion I would make and that would be to switch the order of the words, "body" and "mind" in line 2 so that it reads "Exercise the mind as well as the body" because it would emphasize MIND which people tend to neglect to exercise over the body which, whether we do it or not, everyone knows we should. Does that make sense to you? I always feel a bit insecure making suggestions unless I know someone wants them, so I hope you aren't offended. Keep writing!
