How to fail in everything
Knock everything systematically, No matter what you hear of, depreciate it and predict the worst.
Mind everyone else's business. This will ensure your neglecting your own.
Never perform today what you can possibly postpone until tomorrow.
Leave the important things to someone else instead of seeing to them personally.
Have no organized arrangements. Trust to luck for everything.
Be a sanctimonious humbug, and when you bungle things say it "is the Lord's will" or that the trouble s that you are too good for your surroundings.
Sit down and wait for something to turn up.
Finally, conduct your life in all respects as if there were no God...
