Don’t aim to be the best student in your class. Aim to be above average instead, so that you have more time to develop other critical skills.

Your certificate will be obsolete and forgotten. The world is changing rapidly, and you must keep up with it. Merely scoring A’s doesn’t make you a valuable person in the marketplace.

Party and night life aren’t as glamorous as you think. Don’t fear missing out. If you’ve something important to work on, say no.
Spend more time reading, even if that makes you appear less sociable. Remember, you’re “socializing” with the best minds on Earth while reading.

Explore seemingly unrelated things, such as activities, competitions or groups, and see how the dots connect each other in future.

Start building your success cabinet. Start looking for like-minded people. Start experimenting stuffs together, start raising each other’s standard. Don’t wait. It’ll be fun too.

Get into love responsibly. Unless you want to remain single throughout your life (which is perfectly fine), you’ll need the experience.

Take calculated risks. You have almost nothing to lose. Don’t make foolhardy decisions, though.

Don’t forget about your parents. They’re probably missing you at home. Call them regularly. Let them know they’re not gonna lose a son or daughter.
