"The young man knows the rules, but the old man knows the exceptions."

Welcome to 1000 Life Lessons! Here we are compiling a list of 1000 things that ideally you should have known from the moment you entered into this world. The world isn't that kind though. The world wants you to make mistakes and learn along the way. Unfortuntely as you get older you end up carrying a lot of regret and wish you had known everything you've learnt along the way from the moment you were born.

Obviously the point of this website is to give you all those life lessons you need to know in one place. Hopefully we can prepare you for your upcoming future. The moment you're about to make a mistake and learn a lesson will be removed and replaced by you doing the right thing because you have already learnt the lesson here on this website.

We should point out, this website does not yet host 1000 life lessons. The aim is to grow until we reach that figure. It may not be possible to reach that figure but by setting the bar high we can keep on providing you with life lessons and more knowledge. So keep coming back to us to find out what else you can learn.

Please bare in mind that some lessons are obvious and trivial, for instance, don't smoke. We have to cover all the bases though, so while some lessons won't help you at all, a great deal of them will. We want your input too! Feel free to submit lessons to us. After moderation we'll get them up! If you feel a lesson needs more depth or is wrong then please let us know on our forum. You never know, this could end up being an ultimate guide to life! Enjoy reading it.
