Important Lessons in Life


  • You are responsible for your own happiness, not other people.
  • Is your job your passion? Well done. If it isn't, it's also okay. You can still be happy.
  • Of all things you can learn in college, here are the two most important lessons for career success: how not to be a prick, and public speaking.
  • Your body is your life. If your body is not fit and healthy, you don't have a life. Spend money and time for health.
  • Don't be selfish douche. But also don't worry too much about other people's opinion. Find balance. 
  • Read. You will be smarter, and you can engage in conversations. And probably get laid too.
  • Don't be religious. Be spiritual. Know the difference.
  • Respect science. Your life depends on it.
  • Be nice and courteous to all people. Say thank you and smile to waiters, store staffs, anyone who helps you.
  • Invest in quality friends, not superficial acquaintances.
  • If it is only 3 stories, take the stairs, not elevator.
  • Occasionally, do charity/volunteer work. Not to get rewards in heaven, but to share your blessing. Give because you have received, not because you expect something.
  • Be nice to your parents, lest you regret it when they are gone.
  • You will break someone's heart, and yours by someone else. That's a fact of life. Suck it up.
  • Don't be too serious. We are all dead someday.
  • If you think someone you meet look nice today, say it so. You may just make someone's day.
  • Don't overeat. Cut sugar.
  • Don't bully people. In real life or online.
  • Karma has a powerful weapon. It's called social media.
  • Often times shit happens. Just random. Not because of what you did in the past, or gods hate you. Life has a lot of randomness. Acknowledge it.
  • Often time luck happens. Just random. Not because of what you did in the past, or gods love you. Life has a lot of randomness. Acknowledge it. Stay humble.
Found it so randomly when reading Henry Manampiring ask.fm and I post it here as a reminder for myself
