There are certain rules in life - rules that apply to all of us. Here are five very important ones:

1. You WILL learn lessons. Life itself is a lesson.
2. There are no mistakes, only lessons. In every experience, it is always wise to ask ourselves these two questions: “What is it I can learn from this?” and “What is it I need to do?
3. A lesson is repeated until it is learned.
4. If you don’t learn it the easy way, the lessons get harder.
5. You’ll know you have learned the lesson when your behavior changes.

Changed behavior is the goal of the lessons we must learn in life.
