What's the best piece of advice you've ever received?

I canā€™t remember many things people have said to me. Having a short-term memory is truly bad, butā€”(My late dad once reminded me not to worry too much about othersā€™ problems and faults. We should focus on ourselves, as we arenā€™t perfect either. He said not to gossip about others too much).

"Let's do our best rather than being the best." I use that as one of my mottos until this second.

ā€œImagine you're trying to eat a big pot of rice in one go. Can you do it? I bet you can't. It's the same with doing revision for an exam at the last minute. You could never absorb everything in one go.ā€

I think that is the only advice that is stuck in my head.

There's a black hole in each person's heart, no wealth, nor power, nor strength could close this soul sucking hole. Only gratefulness can.
