My dear brothers and sisters i would like to share this with you all.I understand that it has not much to do with islamic knowledge but it can be sometimes interesting and useful to read.

Note:Request, please dont mind this post if it has nothing to do with islamic knowledge.

Rule 1: Life is not fair - get used to it!

Rule 2: The world doesn't care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself.

Rule 3: You will NOT make $60,000 a year right out of high school. You won't be a vice-president with a car phone until you earn both.

Rule 4: If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss.

Rule 5: Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your Grandparents had a different word for burger flipping: they called it opportunity.

Rule 6: If you mess up, it's not your parents' fault, so don't whine about your mistakes, learn from them.

Rule 7: Before you were born, your parents weren't as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you thought you were. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parent's generation, try delousing the closet in your own room.

Rule 8: Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but life HAS NOT. In some schools, they have abolished failing grades and they'll give you as MANY TIMES as you want to get the right answer. This doesn't bear the slightest resemblance to ANYTHING in real life.

Rule 9: Life is not divided into semesters. You don't get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you FIND YOURSELF. Do that on your own time.

Rule 10: Television is NOT real life. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to jobs.

Rule 11: Be nice to nerds. Chances are you'll end up working for one.

Please take care and remember me in your dua's.

I would not take any advise from the likes of Bill Gates,
no offense to you my brother but he is an evil man.

He does not care for those who are beneath him and poor,
and if he could he would gladly wipe out the poor third world counties with his wealth as he only see's them as poor people who are a waste of resources!

I really need to save the sources of the following phrases, so I can share them as they were originally said, instead of rephrasing them:

- The Prophet:saw: said, "Seek knowledge, even if you have to travel all the way to China". (The Chinese were not Muslims back then).

Bill Gates isn't giving advice on Islam here. He's giving advice about things he learned growing up. Lastly, it's advice, not commandments. Think about it, and if you think this new piece of information is not useful or accurate, disregard it.

Assalam alaikum.
