Why worry about the consequences of your actions If you don't worry about your consequences of your actions then you'll do whatever you want whenever you want and will end up in jail.

Live for the moment… party on! If you live for the moment then you'll only think about what's going on during that time.

Get ‘em first Your classmate is out to get you, so you'd better get ‘em first.

They win, you lose. Don’t let anyone else succeed at anything because, remember, if they win, you lose.

Drag them down! If it looks like you’re going to lose, however, make sure you drag that sucker down with you.

You were born with a mouth so use it. Make sure you talk a lot. It doesn’t matter if the teacher is talking, if a classmate is talking, or even if your mom or dad is talking. Just keep talking Habit 5: Talk First and Pretend to Understand by Caleb Reynolds

Always Express Your Side Of The Story First Before anybody else gets to say anything share your part of the story first. Don’t let anybody share their side of the story. Make sure every understands your views.

Pretend To Listen By Nodding And Saying Uh-Huh When someone is talking just pretend to listen. Don’t actually pay attention to what they’re saying. Remember no one needs to understand their views as long as everybody understands your part.

If You Really Want Their Opinion, Give It To Them Tell them your opinion. Let them know what you think. It doesn’t matter about what their opinion is. Just as long as they know your opinion everything is all right.
