Hollywood star Chirs Pratt shared some brilliant, spiritual, and funny life rules with his young fans as he received the Generation Award at the MTV Movie & TV Awards.

In "Nine Rules From Chris Pratt, Generation Award Winner", the actor said being a responsible elder, he wanted to share his experience with the next generation.

"Number one, breathe. If you don't, you'll suffocate.Number two, you have a soul, be careful with it."
The actor said, "Don't be a turd. In this real world it is illegal to slap people, (but) don't take advantage of that fact. If you're strong, be a protector, and if you're smart, be a humble influencer. Strength and intelligence can be weapons, and do not wield them against the weak -- that makes you a bully."
Mixing his witty sense of humour with practical wisdom, Pratt said his fourth rule was about how to give a dog medicine. "Put the medicine in a little piece of hamburger."
Pratt also shared a his deeply held faith with his sixth life rule, "God is real, God loves you, God wants the best for you. Believe that. I do."
"'Learn to pray. It's easy and it's so good for your soul. You just close your eyes, you list off people for which you are grateful, ask for protection for the people you love," he said. "Don't be embarrassed by it, you let people see you do it, it's good for their soul, too."
"It forgives you for your flaws, no matter what they are, and if you're willing to accept that, you will have grace. And grace is a gift."
