1. YOU WILL RECEIVE A BODY.

You may like or hate it, but it will be 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 them or

think they’re irrelevant and stupid.

3. THERE ARE NO MISTAKES, ONLY LESSONS.

Growth is a process of trial and error, of experimentation. The “failed”

experiments are as much a part of the process.

4. A LESSON IS REPEATED UNTIL LEARNED.

A lesson will be presented to you in various forms until you have learned it.

When you have done so, you can move 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 THAN “HERE.”

When your “there” has become a “here,” you will simply obtain another “there”

that will, again, look better than “here.”

7. OTHERS ARE SIMPLY MIRRORS OF YOU.

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

something you love or hate about yourself.

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 ARE WITHIN YOU.

The answers to life’s questions are to be found within. All you need to do is look,

listen, and trust your “inner voice.”

10. YOU WILL FORGET ALL OF THIS.

You will forget these rules, and other important insights, and need to be reminded

from time to time. But don’t worry; the universe has all the time you need.
