We're bombarded with advice these days, yet it's rare to discover a pearl of wisdom that really resonates. We asked 10 Irish personalities to share the life-affirming advice that has served them well.
MIRIAM O'CALLAGHAN, broadcaster
"There are two pieces of advice I have received in my life, which I use on an almost daily basis. They are both very simple, but very powerful.
"The first was from the late, great Seamus Heaney via the late, great John McGahern: 'If and when you meet someone difficult in life, treat them with implacable courtesy.' I use this all the time and it nearly always works. They are so disarmed by your politeness that they usually back down.
"The second piece of advice was from my wonderful Kerry father, who came from a small holding in Kerry and became a senior civil servant. He was incredibly sound. He said if at any time you come across someone in either your personal or professional life who is causing problems or headaches for you, make a conscious decision the next time you come across them to stop worrying about them, and let them worry about you. It works a treat."
