Here are ten things I wish I learn someday:
1. Learn to hold your tongue long enough to calmly assess a situation so that you don't blow up or cause irreparable damage with words.
2. Learn to forgive yourself for all the mistakes that you have made, and will invariably make in the future.
3. Stop taking people at face value.
4. Stop over-simplifying things into black and white. There are always different shades of grey. Learn to see them and appreciate them for what they are.
5. Don't be disappointed when you don't get back what you give. Give anyway.
6. Don't go out of your way to help someone unless the person directly asks you for help. Otherwise, be prepared to be subjected to ingratitude.
7. Stop procrastinating. It never helps. It's just an excuse you give yourself to procrastinate further.
8. Learn to readily admit it when you are wrong. It can always happen. People are not perfect, and you're no exception.
9. Never disregard a good idea no matter where it comes from.
10. Appreciate all the good things while they're a part of your life ... don't wait till they're gone.
This seems like tag-able material. So I tag all members of my Penguin Army who wish to take up the tag. (It’s optional, mind you).

Yep. I am taking this tag up.
[:P]
You know, I think, half of your work is already over. You have got what you need to learn. For me, I will have to just make them up. Hehehe.
Moreover, I believe, you have already learnt many of them. Maybe you just aren't sure.
I concur. Half the work is done, and the other half will be completed when you have:
11. Stop making such lists.
And nothing's ever black.
Heh. I made a mockery of this tag. I know I am sure of that.
I'll never do the things I have said about.
Hah..
But the loyal Penguin Army Sith had to do it.
{Who, by the way ignores a certain line after the "My Penguin Army" and continues to lead it.}
