There are assholes in the world

On that topic, very few people are actively
trying to be the bad guy or an asshole, some people just don't know the right way to act, are too caught up in their own problems, or are just personality types that rub you the wrong way. The designation of "asshole" is just how you choose to define them. It's a matter of perspective.
Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle
Nothing can stop the person with the right mental attitude from achieving their goal; nothing on earth can help the person with the wrong mental attitude.
Believing in yourself is pretty nifty and will help you overcome issues that you could already do, but didn't think you could because you didn't believe in yourself. But it's not a magical cure-all that will make you magically capable of doing anything and everything you'd ever want to do. In the mean time, not believing in yourself will hinder you a lot but probably won't stop you from doing things that you are simply awesome at doing.
In the long run the pessimist may be proved right, but the optimist has a better time on the trip.
Don't worry about the future. Or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubble gum. The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind, the kind that blindside you at 4 p.m. on some idle Tuesday.
Even bad things have a purpose, even if that purpose is just to make you stronger.
