I would advise current youths and aspiring students to read books, keep a curious attitude about your surroundings, keep asking questions and be yourself, don't try to copy others. In addition to this, surround yourself with people you aspire to become. Lastly, work on your communication skills and don't hesitate to accept your mistakes, don't do any kind of addiction be it phone or drugs as everything looks good in limits.
