Love yourself.
Anything you get yourself into you can get out of.
Try to make the most out of criticism.
Study your decisions.
Set an example. Be a candle in the darkness
Don't compromise what you know is right.
Make a diference; one random act of kindness at a time
Be grateful for what you have now, for it is the only way to get more
Never give in to the other side. Fight for what you know is right.
Never jump to conclusions
Never beleve easily in anything, do your reasearch to find the truth
A happy life consists not in the absence, but in the mastery of hardships
You are making a diference even if you don't know it.
You get from it what you put into it.
There are many more but i cant think of them right now. I hope these help.
