30 Things You Need To Know To Be Successful In Life - PART 2 - 11 to 20.
 Life is short. This advice will help you make the most of it.
What does it take to be successful in life? There's no simple answer, but history has shown that there are practices that can maximize your chances of a productive, happy life.
Quora users discussed some lessons they've learned along the way in the thread, "What are the top 10 things we should be informed about in life?" Users had many more than 10 tips to offer, and we've collected and paraphrased some of the best advice, arranged by contributor below.
11. Biases affect everything you do. Your worldview works its way into every decision you make. If you know your biases, you can minimize acting selfishly and do what is right for the situation.
12. Living in the present will keep you focused. Accept that the past can't be changed, and make the most of what's in front of you.
13. People who are very different from you can enrich your life. Surrounding yourself with like-minded people can limit your creativity, but if you seek out new perspectives, you grow faster and learn more.
14. Travel. Travel more. Not only will being exposed to other ways of living give you a new perspective on life, it will take your brain off autopilot and allow you to return to work refreshed.
15. It's important to keep taking risks until you find your passion. If you haven't found a job that makes you happy, don't settle.
16. You must take care of your health. You can't focus on your career if you're continually set back by indulging your vices or ignoring health problems.
17. Your reputation must be protected. Guard your reputation with all that you have. Make habits of being honest, reliable, and kind, and others will notice.
18. Emotions should not guide decision-making. A knee-jerk reaction influenced by anger or panic can destroy a lifetime of work in one moment. Wait until you are calm before making a big decision.
19. Forgive others and yourself. Strangers and loved ones alike will hurt and disappoint you. React accordingly, but do not hold grudges. It takes a tremendous amount of energy to fuel hatred.
20. Seek a greater purpose. You live in a world much bigger than yourself. Figure out how you'd like to give back.
