Do you remember when you were 8 years old and how important it was to be cool. You listened to the latest music, did that thing with your hair and hit puberty wondering if girls thought you were as cool as your friends did. I remember those days all too well and must admit I was a pretty cool kid. When I was 8 years old I had girls fighting over me. Not even joking. They would come to the soccer field stands at lunch to watch me play. I was so cool, still am, in fact. So you can trust that I know the secrets of the easiest way to be cool. Now, I’ll share it with you.

No matter how old you are, the secret to being cool the easy way is to simply have the ability to never get offended and be able to make fun of yourself. It’s that easy. Because, what do you think of people who get angry at friendly mockery? Would you think that someone who can’t handle a joke is cool? I didn’t think so. This is also good wisdom for life in general, to be able to tolerate mockery but never participate in it. The cool kid was never the bully and the nerd at the same time. He was in his own clique, off not caring what people thought of him.

So there you have my secret tip for staying cool and I hope you use it well.

Cheers.
