You can not ignore how others see you since it determines if you are successful, liked and if you are punished for what you believe in. To smile all the time is giving a false impression but sometimes is needed to make everyone think things are dandy. You can not always block negatives things but that will not always make them go away. I would say "know how to play the field". Studies have shown too much sleep is bad for you and can make you gain weight. Perception is very important.
"The world is like a ride at an amusement park, and when you choose to go on it, you think it's real because that's how powerful our minds are. And the ride goes up and down and round and round; it has thrills and chills and it's very brightly colored and it's very loud and it's fun... for a while. Some people have been on the ride for a long time, and they begin to question: "Is this real, or is this just a ride?" And other people have remembered, and they come back to us, and they say, "Hey - don't worry, don't be afraid -EVER- because, this is just a ride." And we... KILL those people HAHAHA! "Shut him up! We have a lot invested in this ride - SHUT HIM UP! Look at my furrows of worry! Look at my big bank account, and my family! This just HAS to be real!"... But it's just a ride. And we always kill those good guys who try and tell us that, you ever notice that? And let the demons run amok? Jesus - murdered; Martin Luther King - murdered; Malcolm X - murdered; Gandhi - murdered; John Lennon - murdered; Reagan... wounded HAHA! But it doesn't matter because: It's just a ride. And we can change it anytime we want. It's only a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings of money. A choice, right now, between fear and love. The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your doors, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love, instead, see all of us as one. Here's what we can do to change the world, right now, to a better ride: Take all that money that we spend on weapons and defense each year and instead spend it feeding and clothing and educating the poor of the world, which it would many times over, NOT ONE HUMAN BEING EXCLUDED, and we could explore space, together, both inner and outer, forever, in peace."

The best advice I ever got was when I was about 12, from my mam. It's just basically to think about how a situation will affect me in 10 years, I guess. So, when I get very nervous, I try to think about how I'd view the event it in hindsight, and most the time you realise that you make such a big deal out of something small, but at the time it's like the end of the world or something:P. Like, would I regret not doing that purely because of nerves? Even if I do make a complete fool of myself, will anyone still care (or even remember) in ten years? Most the time I doubt people would care even after a year. So, yeah, just that really.
I guess a lot of my advice can come across as sort of bleak:P. I find it very reassuring. I don't think this one's that bad, though. Aside from having to assure yourself that everyone who you meet has the memory of a goldfish, but only when it comes to the bad stuff, of course:P. Haha, well it's not quite that bad, but still. But I'm a bit of a coward at times, and this has helped me get over some of that stupid crap.
But, that only applies to certain things. It depends what you need advice on really. I think the particular reason why that piece of advice is good for me is because it's basically just another way of saying that things move on. If something bad happens, it won't always be happening. Things change!:)
Go out and take a walk. Take some time to yourself to think about every situation. Keep thinking and walking until the situation doesn't make you feel angry or upset anymore. If you have a lot of problems in your life, you'll eventually be very physically fit and you'll have it all figured out in that time.
If people give you problems, leave them behind. Don't let your propensity to feel sorry for others let them change your mind about leaving them in the dust. You have to look out for you and your kids and if someone comes between that, they don't really care about you. Don't bother with people who don't care about you.

"Get yourself a good woman and stick with her.
Don't do drugs. Ever.
And drink Pepto Bismol."
I think it was BB King.
Block out negatives, because that also is part of ignoring other people's opinions about you. Be confident in yourself and do your best and you will accomplish many things...maybe.
What would Han do. So I'm a rouge baby, just me, my fuzzy buddy and my sweet ass ride. Yeeeeeeehawwwwww
