Think about death often.
"Live your life like you'll die tomorrow, but make plans like you'll live forever"
This way, you treat people better. You worry less. You give more. You make better choices.

Prepare for stress in advance.
This cognitive process called "proactive coping" make you less reactive to stress.
- When you save for rainy days, you create a cover for when the troubles come.

Being respected, like anything else, is defined by your actions.
In every social setting, you're either highly respected or disregarded
But how long this tag remains on you depends on what you do afterward.

Seeking confidence and happiness from outside is a waste of time.
We've been sold that confidence and happiness can be bought.
So we spend our lives working and buying our way into the wrong social circles for confidence or validation.
And then we wonder why we're unhappy.

Patience will save you a lot of stress.
I never enjoyed waiting for things to come to me. Or waiting my turn.
I always wanted things when I wanted them. Although I'm thankful that this helped me grow up faster, but it would have saved me lots of stress to just wait.

Things always work themselves out.
This isn't to encourage passive behavior.
But I've noticed that the things I've worried the most about always worked out seamlessly - making my worries unnecessary.

Don't spread the virus.
Fear is the virus.
The worst thing you can do is to project your fears on others.
If you're scared something won't workout, and the next person believes in it, keep your fears to yourself.

You can build potential.
You see some people and know that nothing can stop them from being successful. And when they reach the limelight you're not surprised because you saw it all along.
This can be you. The recipe is self-belief and a crazy work ethic.

You choose to be the victim.
- I've seen people go through terrible situations, and are the happiest people
- I've seen people who have gotten only hate but are still filled with the most love
This taught me how you either choose to be identified as your pain or overcome them

Use Time and Silence
Time, when you feel like your efforts, are not yielding results.
Silence, when you feel the need to say negative things about yourself and others
