Learn to recognize and accept your God given talents (and we all have them). Develop those talents and use them in the career you choose. Remembering T for talent put you far ahead of the game if you take an advantage of what God gives you.
TIME
Learn the importance of time. When you are always on time, people can depend on you. You prove your trustworthiness. Learn not to waste your time, because time is money and time is effort. Time usage is also a talent. God gives some people the ability to manage time. The rest of us have to learn how. And we can!
HOPE
Dont go around with a long face, expecting something bad to happen. Anticipate good things, watch for them.
HONESTY
When you do anything dishonest, you must do something else dishonest to cover up, and your life become hopelessly complex. The same with telling lies. If youre honest, you dont have to remember what you said the last time. Speaking the truth each time makes life amazingly simple.
INSIGHT
Listen and learn from people who have already been where you want to go. Benefit from their mistakes instead of repeating them. Read good books like ghe Bible because they open up new worlds of understanding.
NICE
Be nice to people - all people. If yoire nice to people, they will be nice to you. It takes much less energy to be nice than it does to be mean. Being kind, friendly, and helpful takes less energy and relieves much of the pressure.
KNOWLEDGE
Knowledge is the key to independent living, the key to all your dreams, hopes, and aspiratons. If youre knowledgeable, particularly more knowledgeable than anybody else in a field, you become invaluable and write your own ticket.
BOOKS
I emphasize that active learning from reading is better than passive learning such as liatening to lectures or watching television. When you read, your mind must work by taking themselves into thoughts and concepts. Developing good reading habits is something lkke being champion weightlifter. The champon didnt go to gym one day and start lifting 500 pounds. He toned his muscle, beginning with lighter weights, always building up., preparing for more. Its the same thing with intellectual feats. We develop our minds by reading, by thinking, by figuring out things for ourselves.
IN-DEPTH LEARNING
Superficial learners cram for exams but know nothing two
weeks later. In depth learners find that the acquired knowledge become a part
of them. They understand more about themselves and their world. They keep
building on prior understanding by pilling on new information.
GOD
Never too big for God. Never drop God out of your life.
