:-) Its as important as anything else.

is having incentives. And disincentives. The toughest part is in finding the right incentives.

It helps. Before you embark on something new, plan it out. It might take a lot of time which might seem wasted, but it will definitely save even more time and a lot of headache later on. If you are not convinced, atleast try it next time :)

Which brings us to the next learning.

If you are not convinced of something, see if you can prove it wrong. If its just you “not being sure”, it might be well worth trying it out. You will learn a lot from it even if you dump this “something” later on.

Laugh at the situation. Make as much fun of it as you can.

Just like getting rid of a boggart :)

If you have a purpose in life which you feel strongly about, you can do anything!

..to want to help. It makes a person feel good. It makes you feel wanted.

This means that you may actually be doing the other person a favour when you ask them for help once in a while! :)

What it also means is that one of the simplest ways to feel good is to help someone! :)

It happens.. Accept it. Accept the blame too. Dont blame it on the driver.. you were the one standing in the middle of the road thinking noone would hit you. Assess the damage objectively. You lost an arm? Well.. it could have been worse.. But the point is, that its a great lesson! Learn from it.

Think of Stephen Hawking… and you are complaining about a lost arm??? Stop insulting your intelligence and MOVE ON. You can still do great things! And remember not to stand in the middle of the road next time. :)

underestimate anyone.

..applies to the real world as well. There is a very good reason why so much effort is put into it.

is to realise that you are in a hole!
