In everything. Many of your failures you will later be proud of. They lead you to better things. If you keep grinding and trying.4. Only you control your happiness - But, family/friends are everything
Other people/things/places will not make you happy for longer than a moment. Work on yourself. Be content with who you are. Strive to be a better person each day. We all are imperfect. Everyone is self-conscious about something.
In the end, make memories with those you love. Life is short. Hang out with those who help you in your worst moments. Still love you when you mess up or are broken. Real family sticks together. And you may not always love to be around them.5. Learn a programming language
