Always be truthful in your life come whatever may! If you truly want to succeed in life... being truthful is the most essential ingredient in the journey of life.





Secondly, you need to develop a goal in life early. The sooner you do it... the better for you! When 11 years of age I wanted to meet God in this very life! By 13 my desire had turned into conviction. At 15 years of age I gave notice to my mother that I wanted to leave the confines of the family to meditate in isolation of the jungles (forests) for which she did not permit.





I continued in the journey of God while living in the family. My goal of life was absolutely clear to me. Come whatever may... I shall meet God in this very life. At 37 years of age... I came face-to-face with God on one-to-one basis. I had realized God. This is my last manifestation as a human being. I can but attain salvation (moksha) and enter the kingdom of God (aka Baikuntha in Hinduism) the moment I leave my mortal frame.





Patience, persistence and perseverance need to be practiced as we do it in India. They go a long way in maintaining a balance in life. If you truly desire to become a Bill Gates in your life... form a goal in life... put all your eggs in one basket and thrust ahead in the journey of life. You shall definitely succeed!

dont say life is short what can u possible do thats longer?


but on serious note- dont let me get you down,cause it effects you and thats all they want to see-so smile cause it confuses people.


=)
Life is short, never pass anything up. If you want it, go for it.
Discover what your true potential as a human is, beyond all the programming and disinformation fed to you by all of the culturally approved institutions.





Meditate and exercise regularly. Perhaps 1 or 2 in 10 will have the wisdom and insight to take this advice, thus having the chance to become other than just another clone. see http://www.montalk.net for helpful thoughts.





Best of luck, you'll need it on this planet. :))
Stay in school as long as you can, learn all you can, it will make a huge difference in your life. Enjoy your childhood, and teen years, and don't be so hard on your parents. Never be ashamed because you make a mistake, you will learn from it and probably be a better person because of it. Do something for someone, ask nothing in return except that someday they do something for someone. You may think that you are smart at 16, but at 25 you will look back and think of what an idiot you were. Then at 35 you will look back and think of what a fool you were at 25. Live life to it's fullest, love with all your heart, and laugh often.
Don't pass it up because you think you'll make up for it later...because any you get later, you would have gotten anyway.


(Wise advice I once got from an older brother)
Work on their sense of consequence, that's about the only thing teenagers are missing, well I'm thinking positive..
Cultivate detachment from your emotions, learn the value of humility and realize that your life is only superficially about you.
Dont post stupid questions on the internet.
You think you're so smart at 16, but when you turn 25 you realize what an idiot you truly were, especially in love.
stop worrying about what other people are thinking, you don't have to impress anyone.
Probably the same things your parents tell you.





Don't give into peer pressure, if someone says they will not be your friend if you don't do something you know is wrong or just doesn't feel right, they weren't your friend in the first place.





Respect yourself and others for the individuals you and they are.





Take care of your own things, and take of someone else's even better.





Don't go out with or befriend anyone who doesn't respect you or tries to hurt you.





You shouldn't go out with or befriend someone for what they can do for you or give you, like money, nice things etc.





Things don't buy real happiness, good relationships are all the riches you need, you can work for the rest.
What makes me equipped to dole out advice to others? First, let me take out the mote from my own eyes.
First you are smart at 16. No matter what anyone says. When you turn 20 it is just that....you are amazed at how much your parents learned in four years.





Advice....think...actions and consequences.





Whatever it is you do....think. For every action of decision....a door or opportunity closes. You need to understand that you do not have the choice to not open doors. You MUST choose doors constantly, but you can never go back. So choose wisely by thinking first.





Make your decisions bravely and always go forward without fear or self-recrimination. You will make mistakes. Learn from them. Think.





When the last door is available to you at life's end, make sure you are ready for what lays ahead.





If you have thought and have sought, you should have the right answer and your choices upon reflection will have proven worthwhile and useful.
To be more responsible than they are.





But the sense of responsibility comes later I guess.
Show kindness towards all living things and be careful with credit cards.
Floss.
Every five years you will be astonished at how foolish you were five years ago.





You will live far, far longer than you expect to.
Examine your most sacred thoughts, always.
Ask everyone you respect their opinion, then follow your gut.
