Topics typically covered include: seeking God's will through prayer and Bible study, choosing companions and entertainment wisely, developing talents, pursuing education, maintaining purity, controlling thoughts, cultivating industry, and preparing for service. White emphasized that principles learned in youth determine life direction, Satan particularly targets young people, and early consecration to Christ provides foundation for entire lifetime. The pamphlet combines warnings against specific dangers with positive guidance for character development and service preparation. It treats youth with respect while providing needed direction.
