1.) You can only depend on yourself.
When it comes right down to it, no matter how many friends you have, no matter how close you are to your family, you are ultimately alone. You can only truly count on yourself. Others tend to put their own needs above yours, and if it inconveniences them to be someone you can fall back on, they won't be there for you.
2.) You can only trust yourself.
Greed knows no boundaries. People who call themselves your "friends" will, under the right circumstances, take advantage of any kindness or generosity you show. They will feed upon you until you're completely sucked dry, then move on to someone else.
3.) Nobody cares.
The only person who cares about you is YOU. This kinda goes along with number one. If you mope around expecting people to feel sorry for you, you're not going to get far in life. The only chance you have at becoming anything is overcoming your self-pity and doing whatever it takes to achieve your goals.
4.) Nice guys finish last.
Being a kind, caring individual may give you strength of character, but it often means you won't be taken seriously by some and will be taken advantage of by others. Be kind, but be assertive. Let others know that there are limits to your kindness and generosity.
5.) Stress is a quick way to put you in the ground.
Don't let yourself become so overwhelmed by the things in your life that you don't have time to enjoy anything anymore. This will only lead to self-destruction.
6.) If you never ask a girl out you'll never be her boyfriend.
If you like someone, go for it. It's better knowing than wondering for the rest of your life. I only wish I had the balls to follow this advice myself.
7.) Just when you think you've hit bottom, God hands you a shovel.
I've learned that no matter what happens, it can ALWAYS get worse in a heartbeat. Count your blessings.
8.) Money is afraid of your bank account.
It flows out a hell of a lot faster than it flows in.
9.) Sometimes you just have to laugh.
There are times when you're so stressed, when the situation is so horribly unbearable, that you just have to laugh to keep from going insane.
Feel free to add yours. :thumbsup:
