You will learn lessons. You are enrolled in a
full-time informal school called, “life.”
·
Lessons are repeated until they are
learned. A lesson will be presented to
you in various forms until you have learned it.
When you have learned it, you can go onto the next lesson.
·
Learning lessons does not end. There’s no part of life that doesn’t contain
its lessons. If you’re alive, that means
there are still lessons to be learned.
·
There are no mistakes, only lessons. Growth is a process of trial, error, and
experimentation. The “failed”
experiments are as much a part of the process as the experiments that
ultimately “work.”
These four are all good life tips, but I think they can be
combined into one big rule. You could
get the message of all these through saying every time you do something in your
life, whether it is a success or failure, it is an experience that you can use
to improve yourself. These lessons will
continue all your life because there is always something more to learn.

“There” is no better a place than “here.” When your “there” has become a “here”, you
will simply obtain another “there” that will again look better than “here.”
I like this one and I think it is really applicable
today. People are always worrying about
where they are going or what is happening tomorrow no one takes the time to
appreciate where you are here and now.
Students seem to have a hard time with that idea of enjoying
where they are right now. Most of my
junior year everyone around me was always worrying about whatever test they had
next week, what they got on the SATs, or were just constantly checking their
grades on Powerschool. I’m not saying
that school is not important it just seemed to engulf many people’s lives and
they would constantly be worry or stressed out.
My life lesson to these people would to take a step back calm down
because whatever you are worrying about it is not as dire as you are making it seem
to be.

You will forget all this.
This seems a bit depressing but it goes along with what I
had said before. Whatever you do, however
bad it may seem right now, people will forget about it, you will forget about it
because in the grand scheme of things its really not that important.
