Un amigo me envió una cadena con el tema "Buenos Consejos". Los leí y en la cadena se decía que habían sido escritos por un tal Jackson Brown; pues me puse a buscarle en la Internet y miré que en efecto ese señor existe y parte de los consejos que me envió mi amigo eran una traducción de sus famosos consejos, pero algunos no lo eran. Por si les interesa, les dejo el listado original tomado de la web del autor, están en su idioma original:
