Be a good son, daughter, parent, teacher, employee, artist. Take care of a dog, cat, hamster, grasshopper. Earn enough money every month for rent, phone, public transport pass, food, cigarettes. Don't oversleep every morning for work, school, meetings. Don't get fat, don't lose weight. Eat healthily. Don't get angry. Educate yourself. Don't disappoint your friends, teachers, parents, or yourself. Don't tarnish your reputation or good name. Don't lose your house keys, cell phone, wallet, or authority. Don't be afraid of failure, divorce, loneliness, illness, or life.
