1. You will receive a body.

You may like it or hate it, but it is yours for the entire period of this time around.

2. You will learn lessons.

You are enrolled in a full-time informal school called Life. Each day in this school you will have the opportunity to learn lessons. You may like the lessons or think them irrelevant and stupid. No matter.

3. There are no mistakes, only lessons.

Growth is a process of trial and error. Experimentation. The ‘failed’ experiments are as much a part of the process as the experiment that ultimately ‘works.’

4. A lesson is repeated until it is learned.

A lesson is presented to you in various forms until you have learned it. When you have learned it, then you can go on to the next lesson.

5. Learning lessons does not end.

There is no part of life that does not contain its lessons. If you are alive, there are lessons to be learned.

6. There is no better then here.

When your there has become a here, you will simply obtain another there that will look better than here.

7. Others are merely mirrors of you.

You cannot love or hate something about another person unless it reflects something you love or hate about yourself.

Other people are to learn from.

8. What you make of your life is up to you.

You have all the tools and resources you need. What you do with them is up to you. The choice is yours.

9. Your answers lie inside you.

The answers to Life’s questions lie inside you. All you need to do is learn to look, learn to listen and learn to trust them.

10. You will forget all this.
