1.Life is not fair,get used to it .
2.The world won't care about your
self-esteem .The world will expect you to
accomplish something before you feel good about yourself.
3.You will not make 4,000 dollars a year right out of high
school .You won't be a vice president with a car phone,until you earn both.
4.If you think your teacher is tough ,wait till you get a boss.He doesn't have
tenure .
5.If you mess up,it's not your parents'
fault ,so don't
whine about our mistakes,learn from them.
6.Before you were born, your parents weren't as
boring as they are now.They got that way from paying your bills,cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you are.So before you save the rain forest from the
parasites of your parents' genernation ,try "
delousing " the closet in your own room.
7.Your
school may have done away with winners and losers, but life has not .In some schools they have abolished failing grades;they'll give you as many times as you want to get the right answer. This doesn't bear the slightest
resemblance to anthing in real life.
8.Life is not divided into semesters. You don't get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you find yourself .Do that on your own time.
