Don't bring problems forward unless you have a proposed solution. It may not be correct but at least it shows you are working on it.
Also, taught me to tell people "no" without actually saying the word. Lead them to the solution/ realization you want while making it seem like it was their idea.
He was never maliciously manipulative, but his lessons have really helped me out in the professional role I am in now.

Respect elders. That, in turn, has translated to respecting all at my age. Firm handshake. Open doors for girls/women. Say yes/no ma'am and sir. Sounds simple but it seems like most folks are animals these days that have lost the value of respect.

If you have a feeling or sense that something is off, it probably is.
Lastly, if you start something then you finish it.

Knot tying.
It frustrates me when I see a grown man that can’t at least tie a bowline knot.
