  4. Stay in one place when you really want to go and explore.
  5. Go and explore when you really want to stay in one place.
  6. Become so attached to any part of your identity that you forget you are allowed to experiment, grow, and change.

  19. Focus on seeking short-term happiness instead of long-term fulfilment.
  20. Become so goal-oriented that your entire life passes you by in the pursuit of whatever is up next.
