Know yourself. Look within. Understand what makes your emotions
  move to and fro and learn how to manage the emotions that come
  your way. Learn to let them pass by like clouds passing in the
  sky. While learning to understand yourself, you will learn to
  understand others. Learning is lifelong, and you get thousands
  of moments every day to learn something, or to be reminded of
  what you almost forgot. To shoot a ship to the moon it takes
  thousands of tiny course corrections so that it doesn't miss the
  moon by a mile. Learn to fall. Learn to be wrong. Be okay with
  it. Be thrilled when you're wrong and find something to learn
  from every situation. You will then never be bored, and you will
  be more well-rounded a person. Know yourself, from the best
  parts of yourself to the yuckiest parts of yourself. apply what
  you know about yourself to others, and work to understand them.
  It is the only way to be at peace. It takes a lifetime but it is
  a process of moving from obscure to less obscure, like washing a
  really dirty mirror that takes a lifetime to clean before you
  can see yourself as you truly are, and you are no longer afraid.
