5 of the Most Important Lessons You’ve Learned in Life
(Stan Mitchell)

  1. You can overcome a lack of talent with practice, hard work and a willingness to out think others.
  2. Learn that no one is perfect. That should give you humility about yourself and patience with others!
  3. Be a good friend. That way you will have good friends.
  4. Pay attention to children. Listen, talk to them. It will make a great deal of difference to their life.
  5. The love of good friends and a good God compensates in the end for life’s griefs.
