Precious life advice

1. When expectations are high, be prepared for disappointment. Most of the time, high expectations lead to failure. Failures happen cleverly and suddenly to test your self-esteem.
2. When you lose everything, you will know who your true friends are.
3. Be with people who energize you and give you a positive atmosphere.
4. Whether you're rich or poor, whether you can do something for them or not, whether you have a lot of stuff or not, as long as they're with you, you'll get to know them.
5. People betray you because they are under you.
6. Good will be rewarded with good. Words are like boomerangs. This means that anything you say to someone or them is likely to hit you back with greater vengeance.
7. Say what you want to say, say what you want to say. Some people can't tell if you're joking or serious.
8. The tongue can illuminate the entire forest. This means not being careless with your tongue. Some things are safer to put in your mouth than to spit them out.
9. Without imagination, the brain becomes stale, or simply dies. Imagination keeps the brain busy and blood circulates.
10. The most powerful gift in the world is the gift of insight.
11. You shouldn't celebrate success. Celebrate failure because it has the most valuable lessons.
12. People are not the cause of your troubles. Your troubles are caused by your ignorance of people.
