John Roberts' speech wishing new grads bad luck went viral on Twitter

Chief Justice John Roberts' unconventional commencement speech at Cardigan Mountain School, where his son graduated from ninth grade in June, has gone viral on Twitter.
Roberts tried to solve those problems by delivering an unexpected lesson on how crucial it is to fail for learning perseverance. By wishing bad luck and even betrayal for the students he addressed, he said he hoped listeners would learn the importance of justice, friendship, loyalty, sportsmanship and compassion.
Roberts addressed his son’s ninth grade graduating class at the Cardigan Mountain School, an elite boys’ boarding school in New Hampshire.
He advised the young graduates to take life’s setbacks in stride. But he did not wish them good luck.
"Now, the commencement speakers will typically also wish you good luck and extend good wishes to you. I will not do that, and I will tell you why," Roberts said.
"From time to time, in the years to come, I hope you will be treated unfairly, so that you will come to know the value of justice. I hope that you will suffer betrayal because that will teach you the importance of loyalty. Sorry to say, but I hope you will be lonely from time to time, so that you don’t take friends for granted. I wish you bad luck again, from time to time, so that you will be conscious of the role of chance in life and understand that your success is not completely deserved and the failure of others is not completely deserved either."
He continued, "And when you lose, as you will from time to time, I hope every now and then, your opponent will gloat over your failure. It is a way for you to understand the importance of sportsmanship."
"I hope you will be ignored, so you know the importance of listening to others, and I hope you will have just enough pain to learn compassion," he said.
Roberts then warned, "Whether I wish these things or not, they’re going to happen. And whether you benefit from them or not will depend upon your ability to see the message in your misfortunes."
"You are also privileged young men," he reminded the boys. "My advice is, don’t act like it."
Roberts’ speech wasn’t all serious.
"Most of you will be going to a school with girls. I have no advice for you," he said to laughter and applause from the crowd of graduates and parents.

Negative Emotions That Actually Have Really Positive Effects On Your Life
Alexia LaFata
Feeling bad sucks. In our social media-driven and image-obsessed world, we like to pretend that we're happy and positive all the time.
Negative emotions have become a sign of weakness and inadequacy, forcing us to internalize how we're really feeling and creating even bigger problems.
Because we are all human beings, however, we can't help but experience these negative feelings from time to time, causing the massive happy walls we build to come crashing down.
And while these negative feelings might make us want to crawl under a rock and declare our hatred for the universe, they're actually more beneficial than you think.
Sadness makes you pay attention to detail
It's important to note that here, sadness does not mean clinical depression. In an article for UC Berkeley, social psychologist Joesph F. Forgas discussed how periods of sadness make us pay more attention to external details, which provide a wide range of benefits in information processing.
In a sense, good moods signal that the situation is safe, familiar and that existing responses are appropriate. Negative mood in turn signals that the situation is new, challenging and the greater attention to new information is required to produce an effective response.
Pessimism prepares you for anything
In a study, psychologists Julie Norem and Nancy Cantor compared optimists to pessimists in a variety of "risky" tasks.
While most people might think optimists would outperform pessimists because of their confidence and the high expectations they set for themselves, pessimists actually performed similarly.
Pessimists were able to do well "because of their pessimism," says Norem in her book, "The Positive Power of Negative Thinking."
Norem says pessimists' "negative thinking transformed anxiety into action." Imagining the worst case scenario prepared the pessimists for anything, which motivated them to try even harder and focus more energy on getting ready for any and all kinds of tasks.
We need pessimism so we aren't shocked if things get worse. Because sometimes, they do.
Guilt improves your moral compass
Guilt, that nagging feeling that comes when we do something wrong, is our moral compass, controlling our levels of social sensitivity and inherent need to be a good person.
Experiencing guilt is our brain's way of punishing us when we do something wrong. It might feel terrible in the moment, but if you've ever felt guilty for doing something bad, it means your morals are in check.
