Be ready. It doesn't matter if the weather forecast says sunny. Bring an umbrella. You can use it rain or shine (if you're Asian). Pack some power bars. You might not have enough time for lunch.
If there's defensive driving, there's also such a thing as defensive walking. Scan your surrounding every few seconds. Project a virtual personal space bubble, and be wary when someone crosses it without your permission.
On a trip, bring only the essentials. Travel light. Nobody remembers what you wore yesterday. Always have your passport, credit cards, and the mobile phone on your person. Everything else is replaceable.
Never be late for an appointment or a date. Ten minutes early is on time. Scout the surroundings, check out the people. Know where the nearest exits (and washrooms) are.
Always have a plan B. Don't over-analyze, and never assume. Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst. Never be caught by surprise.
