Act.

Never act. Never act to change your true self. That's crap.

Don't act.
Don't try to change yourself for the worse.
Have pride within yourself.
Don't downplay yourself.
Have the power to refuse and reject.
Have the brains to know that they don't like you.
Don't be depressed that one person whom you really like isn't your friend.

A true friend isn't one who expects you to change but likes you for who you are. Just remember that.

Have the self determination to succeed.

That's all i gotta say...
