Who said those are the three things one should know in life. Here is what one is to know in life if they want to actually be happy.
We are not this material body, IE; Race, color, nationality, Religion, mind, intellect, senses, job, etc. We are all eternal spirit souls, part and parcel of the Supreme Soul, also known as Krishna, Allah, Jehovah, Vishnu, etc. We never die, only this mortal body dies. This material world is not our real home, it is called Maya (illusion) and is temporary and full of misery, only one fourth of the souls come here, and the rest are enjoying blissful eternal loving relationships with our Maker named above. We fell here due to envying Gods position. He made the material world for those who want to try to live separately from Him (Which is impossible because He is actually everywhere). After many lifetimes of trying to be happy in this temporary world one becomes frustrated and board and begins to question their existence. We then seek out real happiness, and when one becomes sincere God reveals how to come back Home. Those who are intelligent, take up the process of self realization (Bhakti Yoga) which begins with the chanting of the Maha Mantra (the great mantra for deliverance from all suffering and illusion), which gives one real peace, happiness and reality. Then at the end of life they can give up all material attachments and fully surrender to God and return to the eternal Kingdom, where there is no more birth, death, old age, or disease and be eternally happ. for info go to harekrishnatemple.com read Bhagavad Gita as it is By Bhaktivedanta Prabhupad. I am so glad I know now.

Well as in the movie "The Secret", the most important things in life is to live in an attitude of gratitude for everything great in your life. Love is also on the top of the list too but not only loving others but also loving yourself. Learn to love yourself and give to yourself and then be giving to others. I agree with some of the things Jayasri had stated. Some of the things I feel differently about is that I feel the purpose of us being here is to learn and we had chose the path of learning before we came here. That's why when people blame God for the bad things that happen to them they don't realize it was their own choosing before they come here. I also do believe in God but I also believe in Mother God. A ying and yang of sorts. That like everything here our creators and who we are a spark of are both female and male entities. Something you may like to look into. I have had many mirlcles in life and personnal proof for myself of this truth. Feeling the strength of Mother and Father God surrounding us is important to pay attention too and their love is so grand that allot of things people believe of a vengefull angry God of course cannot be true of an all loving Mother and Father God that loves us uncondionally.

I know it is not eat, drink , and be merry for tomorrow we die.
Knowledge, truth, and respect for man are the three I can think of.

1.) Do not trust anyone until they prove they are trustworthy
2.) "Your conscience is all you can take to your grave"
3.) No matter how bad it is for you, someone else has it worse
and a bonus lesson:
Unsolicited advice is as welcome as disease.
