Work out what actually makes you happy. Too much of life is spent trying to do what we think we are supposed to as opposed to what we actually want/like/enjoy/need.
This could be because of upbringing, social pressure or insecurity. If you focus on doing what makes you happy, it all gets a lot easier.
That I’ve never failed I put my all into, not even once. It was only when I was lazy and unmotivated I’d fail in life, I wish I knew to try HARD and keep pushing until you have that breakthrough of success. I remember giving up on so many things and I truly regret that
There will always be people to tear you down, to lift themselves up. Don’t interact with them. Just keep moving forward and they will stay in the same spot.
That silence is key. That I am beautiful and deserve great men instead of jerks, that family isn’t always gonna be there so you have to learn to depend on yourself, to practice my religion fully and intently, to give and not expect anything in return, that eating good satious foods in moderation is important because the weight is harder to get rid of as you get older, that drinking soda was an issue for my face and clear skin is the result of drinking water and pushing soda away, that moisturizing is key to beautiful skin, that if he hits I hit back then leave, that I can’t have all the things I want when there are so many necessities to be taken care of…I must put them first….and lastly, that my worth as a woman commands love, honesty, loyalty, and safety. Oh!! One more last thing frfr…that a man who has a religious sense is far better for me than one who shuns religion…we will never use the same tools in life if we don’t both have some sense of religion and belief..
I could go on…..
Waiting for the perfect moment to do anything is a fool’s errand. Waiting to take that trip, pop that question, start that family, buy that house and I’ve realized that perfect moment never comes. You just do it and figure out the rest later. Those opportunities sat under my nose for so long and now that window has firmly closed, unfortunately.
I mean this in a positive way – everyone around you genuinely does not care.
That embarrassing moment you cringe about all these years later? You are most likely the only one holding onto that.
That time you accidentally rocked up late to work and bumped into your boss? They forgot it as soon as they sat down at their desk.
Everything you do is completely unmemorable and noteworthy to pretty much everyone around you, so take that as a liberating step to realise you can be exactly the person you want to be.
I just figured out my parents were totally making it up as they went. I thought they had it all together, but nope, they were just as clueless as I am. I’m 32, just had a baby, and now I’m begging this little gremlin at 3 a.m. for a break. Generational streak forming here…I’m winging it too!
How important it is to pay school tax even if you don’t have kids. Our education system needs all the help it can get. I deeply regret the times I complained about it.

That you don’t have to feel like you have to say yes to everything
Comfort is way more important than style or what people think.
Rejection is redirection
Importance of ear plugs
Just how f*cking important financial literacy is
Addiction can lead someone to turning on someone they love.
Being happy alone is a way more approachable goal than always pursuing a relationship. Don’t be a Ted Moseby.
Not caring what others think is a key to happiness
i realized that worrying about what others think takes away from living your own life. i wasted too much time on it.
i should stop craving for my parents’ validation and acceptance
I’d rather get head than have sex
Being in public alone isn’t a big deal.
It’s okay to say no, you don’t owe everyone your time and energy
“those who matter don’t mind, and those who mind don’t matter”
You end up regretting the things you didn’t do more so than the things you did
It’s really not hard to get promoted. Just know your shit and show up every day with a good attitude.
Being happy yourself will cause b those around you to be happier as well… sometimes that happiness b is hiding behind a hard decision or conversation
That a crazy amount of adults take cocaine.
Family
If my tummy hurts, I don’t have to finish eating the ice cream sundae. 🍨
Not to take everyone at their word.
Comparison is the thief of joy. #1 reason why social media is so terrible for youth.
I should have been more aware of me/myself when I was young. Who knew.
Most parents do their best, but it has nothing to do with them knowing what’s best.
Start to put away money for a property as early as you can (if that’s something you want).
No is a full sentence. And I can’t fix broken people.

Real friends are hard to find
How short life really is.
That my kids aren’t me and they will want different things in life.
Nobody cares
Time stops for no one
Staying in a bad marriage will permanently affect your child’s mental health, your health and your life expectancy.
Organized religion is the problem
I should start saving even while I’m still young. I should invest in even a small business. I wish I had learned early on how to be an entrepreneur.
Start making exercise a habit. Harder to start and keep as a habit the older you get

That I should have skipped lunch during high school and put all my lunch money into bitcoin. Now I have to work and pay taxes n shit

Flossing is just as, or more, important than brushing.
Let go of people when you grow in different directions.
Hold the people that grow with you dear.
I am an introvert and need time alone. Also im more easily distracted than most and need a place to study with no one around
Stick with a partner who has the same sex drive as you.
You can do everything right in life and still lose and have everyone hate you.
That you cant be nice to everyone
You don’t have to climb to the top if that’s not want you want to do and it’s completely ok to stay where you are if it makes you happy.
Not caring what other people think of how you dress or act. Not taking everything personally.
Your abuser will NEVER change for you. Just leave.
I’m different because i have adhd and autism and not because I’m stupid and nobody likes me.
Self care is essential to success

You can literally just tell people you’re interested in that you like them
That nothing really matters
That naps are a blessing, not a punishment.😂
Nobody is going to take care of yourself but you. For anyone in an abusive environment, get out or change ASAP.
Other people can change your diapers.
I realized that not having relations with my partner that I was bisexual.
Being physically fit feels a lot better than being out of shape
Scarcity is fabricated. Everything you need is out there.
Being happy is a choice
That you can only take things for granted to some extent and you’re not always lucky.

that no matter how nice you are to the world, people will always throw shit back at you.

Left vs right
Other people’s opinion of you doesn’t matter.
More people you have in your life=More drama.
If you don’t want to build your own dreams, someone will hire you to build theirs.
Not everyone is going to like you and that’s ok
That the saying “ what will people think/say”
Will destroy so many important decisions in your life.
That saying is bullshit .
You can’t break toxic cycles when you’re still trying to please the previous generations.
Have more patience with yourself and those around you. We are all trying as best as we can🙂

Most of the things people tell you are based on merit are not.
If it doesn’t matter in five years, it doesn’t matter.
She was flirting
You can do everything right, and people will still hate you for something you didn’t do.
So, Choose your happiness first.
Acceptance doesn’t mean allowing (narcissists won’t change and we aren’t weak for not continuing to put up with it)

That people suck. We need to know that right out the womb.
It’s the Money, not your degree or your job.
In college, going to parties will do more to advance your career than any homework
“Being an adult is fun, you will love being an adult!”
Taxes and utility bills are not fun, but early bed times can be amazing.
I really am somebody.
Male, females and their core biological standards
Men age like wine |
Women age like milk
Men are the prize once they’ve matured and are self-built (your testicles will still work until you’re old)
A woman is a prize until the fertilizable egg supply runs out, after that she’s a liability.
A woman also loses more value the more promiscuous she is and if it is well known and cannot be hidden, once she’s a single mom it’s a wrap.
Men with no children that are building their lives from the ground up look at single moms worse than the general population looks at homeless people.
So if you’re a struggling man in your 20’s and 30’s on your way up, keep doing what you do, your best days are ahead of you.
Alcohol is not good for me.
That women can discretely masturbate in public by crossing their legs and squeezing their thighs together.
