19. Stay close with the important people in your life
与你生活中的贵人保持密切联系

Most of you will lose contact with childhood friends, college buddies, and past coworkers. But chances are that you’ve made some great friends along the way. If you’ve found that you’ve lost touch with someone who was important to you, reach out to them and try to reconnect. People who you consider important are few and far between, so do your best to keep them in your life.
你们中的大多数会与儿时玩伴、大学好友和曾经的同事失去联系。但是一路走来，你可能已经交了一些不错的朋友。如果你发现，你与曾经对你很重要的人失去联系，找到他们，重要建立联系。被你贴上重要标签的人少之又少，所以尽量不要让他们淡出你的生活。

22. Face the bully
不甘示弱

Most of you have had a bully in one shape or another in your lifetime. Do not let your fear control you. The best way to handle any bully is to confront them. Most are cowards hiding behind their size and/or power. Confronting them will get their attention, and in many cases, their respect.
