1. You are never as good as you think
2. Fish are often where they weren't
3. You don't always need bait
4. Keep your priorities straight
5. Tie good knots
6. Sharpen your hooks
7. Test your drag
8. Step slowly
9. Fish when you can
10. Make friends
The rest will take care of itself. Amen.

Actually I'd say
1. Fish Live Bait When Available
2. Concentrate on a small area(s) and learn it(them) cold
3. Don't Chase Reports
4. STFU: Learn to be satisfied with personal satisfaction
5. Ignore the small fish that are readily available
6. Stay the course
7. Stay Confident (VERY IMPORTANT)
8. Throw your cell phone away
9. Bring a camera and a scale 
10.Never Lie (A wiseman named Mike Veracka once said a fisherman only has his integrity, once you lose that, you're always a liar)
