I would like to request the advice of this community of intelligent people. Please share any advice that you have that would be of great benefit to those of us who have very little life experience. I will start off with whatever comes to my head...

- Surround yourself with people that are better than you in whichever areas you lack and learn from them.

- Treat "little" people, that is those without power or money, as you would the President, the Pope, or any other "great" person

- Invest in yourself in terms of mind, spirit, and physical well-being. It is one of the few things that evil people cannot take from you

Well, that is my humble advice. I am not very good and that is why I seek the help of anyone of the members to contribute advice of any sort.
