Do not overestimate the competition and underestimate yourself.

You are better than you think.

Stressing to impress is fine, but do it for the right people - those you want to emulate.

6. We are the average of the five people we associate with most, so do not underestimate the effects of our pessimistic and unambitious friends.

2. To enjoy life, you don't need fancy nonsenseBut you do need to control your time and realize that most things just aren't as serious as you make them out to be.

9. Remember: There is a direct correlation between an increased sphere of comfort and getting what you want.
