I really love young people and I am a huge fan of letting people learn from mistakes and giving second and third chances and moulding potential into potent forces. I believe so much in talent and guidance of that talent. You can see it in how I see my football.

Young people have responsibilities, too. One of the key ones is recognizing your station in life and not playing as an adult before your time. Don't address older or higher-ups with the critical confidence which with you address your mates. Seek to learn. Avoid controversies.
Don't take obvious sides in delicate matters. Don't be super forceful (even as you grow and get more assertive). Acknowledge your superiors and acknowledge those you learn from. An appreciative spirit is a common good. Live to learn and listen. Don't speak too often out of turn.
This will not be forever. You are climbing up the stairs. But before you do, don't wake dragons that sleep atop mountains. Don't be quarrelsome. Don't taunt your elders. Don't overemphasize yourself. Just learn and learn and learn. Learn as much and as quietly as you can.
The days will come when the chicken becomes a dragon. That is when you need a backbone to stand against the crowd, to fly against the weather, to make decisions against popular opinion.
But before then, if you wake the wrong dragon, the chicken can quickly cease to be.

Unfortunately, YoofUnited appears to be untaught in the art of caution and progress. He has decided to try to hatch before his time. A bad egg destined to have short wings.
In the jungle, the weak are eaten up. Especially the weak with bad beginnings and bad wings.

This dragon sleeps on, a stirring of smoke around its nostrils.
