Hello,
Have you ever thought to yourself about things you wish you could tell your younger self if you ever got the chance to go back in time? But since we can’t turn back time, I thought I would list 16 things that I wish I could tell my younger self, if I had the chance and it might just help someone else.
- Life isn’t a spirit, instead treat life like it’s a marathon
- Don’t be afraid to fail – You can learn so much from every bump in the road, and make better choices in the future.
- Perfection doesn’t exist – Having to higher expectations or striving for perfection can be more harmful than helpful.
- Keep hustling – Remember that every day, you’re working towards your dream even if you don’t know what the dream looks like.
- Say ‘Yes’ more often…And say ‘No’ more often – By saying ‘Yes’ that you’ll attend a party that you don’t want to attend, just to please everyone else isn’t a good way to spend your time and won’t make feel happy. And not saying ‘No’ to a work project that doesn’t fit your career goal, won’t benefit you in the long run. Only don’t do things that will fulfil your interests or needs.
- Don’t waste time, by surrounding yourself with negative people, instead surround yourself with people who are genuinely happy to see you succeed.
- Have patience for the long term but grind every day.
- Rejection will come, but you need to get used to it.
- You are your own brand. Believe in yourself. Stay true to yourself…And be unapologetic
- Live with no expectations.
- Have the courage to pursue your dreams.
- Life doesn’t give you lemonade to make lemonade. You have to go out and pick them up yourself.
- Don’t allow negativity to stunt your growth.
- Trust your gut and don’t be afraid you change course. Those gut decisions could change your life for the better.
- Take chance on people…And never forget those who took chances on you.
- Never settle for anything less than extraordinary!!
I hope this blog helps you see more of the world. Do you have anything that you wish you tell your younger self? Let me know in the comments below, as I would love you to know.
Love ya,
