THE 10 RULES OF LIFE

1. Learning of many things does not teach someone to have understanding.

2. Many people do not think about things they experience. Nor do they know the things they learn. But they think they do.

3. Those who seek gold dig up a lot of dirt and find little of value.

4. Eyes are more accurate witnesses than ears.

5. When one does not know how to listen, one does not know how to speak.

6. Opposition is good. The greatest harmony arises from difference. Everything begins in conflict.

7. Let us not make guesses about the most important things.

8. Let different waters flow over each of us who enter the same river.

9. The way up and the way down are one and the same.

10. We ought to follow what is common, but people live as if they have their own wisdom.

In seminar we were supposed to write about which one is the most important rule to us. 

This is the best advice for someone because it means that two or more people may be asked the same question, but have two different answers.Two different people will most likely have two different opinions because they have two different minds, and two different trains of thought. Not everyone thinks the same things and if they do it’s probably a coincidence.
