Be Humble. The more you are as a person, the less you need to prove yourself to others.
Don’t finish every book you start. If you find that after reading the first 3 chapters of a book, you have not gained any worthwhile knowledge, or that the book has failed to keep your attention, do yourself a favor : Put the book away and make better use of your time.
Don’t be TOO hard on yourself. Be gentle to yourself and see life for what it is : A journey of self-discovery, personal growth, and lifelong learning
Make a vow of Silence. Try to be silent for 30-60 minutes each day.
