Shah Rukh Khan seems like someone who has a lot of layers to his personality, which is why I absolutely love that he uses Twitter to give us glimpses into his life. Honestly, there’s a lot to love him for, like his movies, his humour, or his charm. But I admit, I love him most for his wisdom and how he often knows exactly the right thing to say. To celebrate his birthday, I’m sharing with you 10 nuggets of wisdom the superstar has posted on his Twitter – consider it the 140-character Gospel According to Shah Rukh Khan.

1) Remember to move on

The more pages you turn, the closer you are to the happy ending.

2) Let people to do their own thing…

@iamsrk
@iamsrk

And remember that you have the freedom to do things your way, too. Exercise that freedom.

3) … because there’s no “right way”

If that’s not liberating, I don’t know what is.

4) Choose who you want to play with

@iamsrk

This is his answer when asked who he wants to work with next. Brilliant. You may not always have control over who you have to work with, but you’ve got full control over who you play with. Pick wisely.

5) Go a little crazy sometimes

@iamsrk

We have enough cynics who disguise being pessimistic as being realistic. Be free enough to go a little crazy at times.

6) Don’t justify your blessings

@iamsrk
@iamsrk

Accept the blessings showered on you without justification or questioning. Just recognise that you’re lucky.

7) Accept when you don’t get what you want

@iamsrk
@iamsrk

To quote from Harry Potter: “The trouble is, humans have a knack of choosing precisely those things that are worst for them.” So when you don’t get what you want, trust that it’s for a reason.

8) Be able to spot the miracles in your life

@iamsrk
@iamsrk

They’re everywhere.

9) Recognise that you’re unique

@iamsrk
@iamsrk

It’s okay, you don’t have to be the best. You just have to be you.

10) Realise that you can live with a broken heart.

@iamsrk

When asked how to fix a broken heart, SRK’s answer is simple: You don’t mend it. You just learn to live with it. Which brings us back to the first point: remember to move on.
