Leo Tolstoy is a great Russian writer who managed to leave an enduring light in world literature. We can say that he owes this to tireless self-improvement. At the age of 18, he made up six rules of mental development for himself, which he followed throughout his life.

1. What must be done without fail, do it no matter what;

2. What you do, do it well;

3. Never consult a book if you have forgotten something, but try to remember it yourself;

4. Constantly force your mind to act with all possible strength;

5. Read and think always loudly;

6. Do not be ashamed to tell people who are hindering you that they are hindering; first let him feel, and if he does not understand, then apologize and tell him this.

Follow these wonderful and simple rules and then, it is likely, and you will become a historically significant person.

In fact, any person should develop and comprehend new things throughout his life - this is one of his main purposes in the world.

1. Love your homeland. And protect her. The rootless do not live long.

2. Love your job. And physical too.

3. Be able to control yourself. Do not be discouraged under any circumstances.

4. Never drink or smoke, otherwise all other recommendations will be useless.

5. Love your family. Know how to answer for her.

6. Maintain your normal weight, no matter what the cost. Don't overeat!

7. Be careful on the road. Today it is one of the most dangerous places to live.
