You don't need to be a billionaire or a boddhisattva, just live a simple life and be of service to others. A man is paid in proportion to the value he creates for society. The best way to help humanity's precarious situation is working on yourself first and doing work that inspires others to do the same. No lasting change can happen unless it starts within, no lasting happiness is possible unless it starts within. Fulfillment comes from within, not from external things.

Sex, drugs and rock n' roll is all fun until you realize the emptiness inherent in all of it. Freedom, love, truth, and peace are more than just flowery overused words; they are all that matter in the end. Make these values the pillars of your life and all else will fall into place.

Never stop asking questions. Never. Challenge every institution and learn where you really stand, not where others would like for you stand. Shine your unique brilliance unto this world and take no ownership over what you accomplish, everything is a group effort.

Help out around the house a lot more, you are not a king.
