11 Things not to do ——– Success
Secret by BILL GATES
1: Life is not fair – get used to it!
2: The world doesn’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 $60,000 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.
5: Flipping burgers is not beneath your
dignity. Your Grandparents had a different
word for burger flipping: they called it
opportunity.
6: If you mess up, it’s not your parents’
fault, so don’t whine about your mistakes,
learn from them.
7: 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 thought you were. So before
you save the rain forest from the parasites
of your parent’s generation, try delousing
the closet in your own room.
8: Your school may have done away with
winners and losers, but life HAS NOT. In
some schools, they have abolished failing
grades and they’ll give you as MANY TIMES
as you want to get the right answer. This
doesn’t bear the slightest resemblance to
ANYTHING in real life.
9: 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.
10: Television is NOT real life. In real life
people actually have to leave the coffee
shop and go to jobs.
11: Be nice to nerds. Chances are you’ll end
up working for one.
