Below was the answer given by a user called Milena on Quora, to a question, Q. what are the lessons people most often learn too late in life? Read and Love More  A:   You are the only one responsible for yourself and for your success. I am responsible for mine. Thinking anything else is wasting your energy. So don't blame your parents, spouse, children, friends, aunts and uncles. It is you, you and only you. Life is short. There are no special occasions. Don't wait for them. Today is the special occasion. Buy yourself an ice cream/beer/ wear that nice shirt. Today! If something bothers you change it. If it is beyond your control, learn to live with it. Accept it. Change yourself. That is the only thing you can influence. You will regret the things you didn't do much more than ones you did. So... action! "Future you", imaginary person that has perfect weight, looks great, gets up early, smiles and loves his/her job, will never become as

Use well defined and consistent names for tables and columns (e.g. School, StudentCourse, CourseID ...). Use singular for table names (i.e. use StudentCourse instead of StudentCourses). Table represents a collection of entities, there is no need for plural names. Don’t use spaces for table names. Otherwise you will have to use ‘{‘, ‘[‘, ‘“’ etc. characters to define tables (i.e. for accesing table Student Course you'll write “Student Course”. StudentCourse is much better). Don’t use unnecessary prefixes or suffixes for table names (i.e. use School instead of TblSchool, SchoolTable etc.). Keep passwords as encrypted for security. Decrypt them in application when required. Use integer id fields for all tables. If id is not required for the time being, it may be required in the future (for association tables, indexing ...). Choose columns with the integer data type (or its variants) for indexing. varchar column indexing will cause performance problems. Use bit fields
