When things go well, always give credit to others.4. Don't talk all the time. Listen to your friends and mentors and learn from them.5. Don't brag about yourself. Let others point out your virtues, your strong points.6. Give someone else a hand. When a friend is hurting, show that friend you care.7. Nobody likes an overbearing big shot.8. As you succeed, be kind to people. Thank those who help you along the way.9. Don't be afraid to shed a tear when your heart is broken because a friend is hurting. 10. Say your prayers!! "
