Over the decades I got my nose broken in fourteen different places. Lesson Learned: Stay out of those places. If you are going back in time pick your place carefully.

Read the ancient stoics

Study the history of the time period you’re going to and be aware of the customs. Knowledge is power. Fit in and use your knowledge for max good

Pay attention to those who have gone before you. There is SO MUCH to learn. And... show RESPECT to everyone with whom you come in contact.

Focus on the big picture, forget the little crap and take care of what matters most. Never let an opportunity to help someone pass you by…..
