    To live the life you want, do not waste too much time in a situation that is not working for you out of fear of the unknown. Many precious years can be wasted there. Instead, come up with a plan and use it to get to where want to be. Repeat as often as necessary.

    Taking responsibility for where you are in life and doing what you can to improve your situation, while also accepting what you can't change. I like that a lot. We are all in control of our own lives. More than we realize. Thank you. Responsibility and appreciation for what we have goes a long way.

    Your reputation is everything.
    You cannot rely on anyone but yourself.
    The second may sound harsh but it is true. Do not rely on anyone else to make you happy, take care of you or protect you. It is a harsh lesson to learn, but the sooner you learn it and accept it, the sooner your life will be your own.

    Quite a lot thank goodness, but the thing that springs to mind is that you should never waste your time, such as staying in an unhappy relationship, job or friendship.

    That the omniverse contains every possibility. So what happens to me at this particular point in this particular set of infinite possibilities is beyond my control. Since I can't move from one universe to another, every choice I make is predetermined. So thus, I can not make mistakes because I was fated to chose every action and inaction in my life. Or if you want to remove the science from it: There is no reason to regret the past or fear the future. Enjoy this moment, because it has never happened before, and it will never happen again.

    That and our fortune always exceeds our ability to appreciate it.
