#7 Never Do Things When You Say You Will

Image is everything, and you need to maintain it. Do so by keeping those you associate with constantly on their toes by never doing things when you say you will. Arrive late (or maybe early), practice Christmas in June, hand in assignments when best suits you, update things at random,etc. Not only does this demonstrate how adaptive and cunning you are, it will cause your friends and family to respect you more and acknowledge your independence and importance.

You may notice a decline in the number of events you are invited to, but this is just because the public is becoming more aware of how important you are and don't want to waste your time. Likewise, if you discover a drop in grades from handing work in late, it is likely not due to a time restriction and is probably the instructor acknowledging your skill and challenging you with by creating some 'academic room'.
