The most valuable currency in the world is time: learn to say "no".
To lose and win gracefully.
If one hates their job it is better to resign than allow it to make them ill: no job is better than a bad job.
Sometimes only one can help themselves: mummy and daddy will not always be there to help one.
Surround oneself with positive people: cut out anyone from life who undermines ones dreams.
Learn everyday and embrace what ones life is trying to teach them.; learn from the things what go well and learn from the things that go wrong.
If one can not find a way to retire then it is best that they find a job which allows then to do would do anyway if they were unemployed; If one like wasting their time on the Internet get a job as an administrative assistant, if one likes meeting weirdos become a psychiatrist, if one wants to write a book on a obscure subject then become an academic anthropologist, if one like eating food then become a chef. if one likes talking then become a politician or car salesman, and if they like drinking tea then get a job at Starbucks.
Read everyday: read everything one can, do not just read about things one knows about, read about people, read other people's behaviour, read about oneself, read those animals, read the flowers, read all the trees, read the sun, read the stars, and read the world!!!
Be kind to oneself, have coping mechanisms. and reward oneself.
Empathy is the key to connecting with people.
