If you could go back and give your younger self 1 piece of advice, what would it be?

[nomadia]

Throught the years I learnt that love is tough. The people we choose to say I do too can either make the journey amazing or they can make it horrible.

One advice I would go back and give myself is," Never fall in love " if I knew back then what I know now. I would have never fallen in love and never gotten married. I have been betrayed far too much for too long. Love has messed up my life so much that now in it can only be managed, never cleaned. Looking from the outside it seems great, money, cars, house, successful business. ... but if I had to choose again, I would choose differently. (We started from the ground up, we were never handed anything. We created our own wealth.)

1. Your years will just go by if you don't make good use of it. It also means that life will just pass by if you don't care.
2. There are only rewards for being brave. The more afraid you are, the more you miss out on life.
3. Success is all based on preparation. Insufficient preparation is sign of future failure.
4. Your level education will significantly impact your happiness in adulthood. It is an investment well worth it.

Quit bringing controlling people into your life. I know that you like the structure they bring. And you like that they make decisions for you.
But eventually you will become so dependent on them that they become intertwined with every aspect of your life. Don’t allow them to destroy your independence and confidence.

Honestly... nothing I can think of, maybe start stockpiling weapons sooner, but I think that would have been literally impossible. Life's been pretty good to me, and I wouldn't want to destroy the one I have to change one thing, one aspect.

All the pain gave me all the happiness, so I'd just leave everything be, maybe go back as me that I am now and dick around on the market some, invest in motorola or something.

[hellknight666]

Stay clear of crazy bitchs and stupud hoes they cause nothing but literal backstabbing pain and headaches

[SpacedCharr]

GIRL, YA BI! KISS A GIRL ALREADY!

Also, though, it'd be "leave home asap, take a gap year to work, and go directly to business consulting and skip that HR nonsense - people are crap, you were right all along."

[aWes0MeNeSs]

Don't be afraid to be yourself and realize that no one is better than you!

I spent way too many years putting people on pedestals they didn't belong on and believing I was below all of them.

The best advice I would give to my younger self is not to listen to insecure teenage girls who kept making fun of my body when I was in high school. They made me believe that I was unattractive and that no guy would ever want me because they thought I was too skinny. My self-esteem went down so badly through the years.

Well, it was full of shit and there was no reason for me to be insecure and have low self-esteem. I would have told my younger self that many guys will LOVE my body and find it sexy :) and that I won't be forever alone lol

Stop trying so hard at school and break away from the pressure to follow your parents and teachers wishes for you. For some people this would be bad advice, but I was always the talented kid who didn't like to stir up trouble and kind of lost myself to the grand plan and well wishes of others. I commuted to college from home, went for a stem field, and worked full time to pay for it all mostly pushed by the well intentioned advice of adults around me. Now that Im an adult, I get to hear many of those same adults stories of when they were young and honestly Im jealous. They let loose, partied, found their partners, pursued hobbies, had their own place or stayed 9n campus, and traveled. All I did in my youth was work myself into a position where I have to work harder and longer hours while skipping out on the things I actually care about. It's my fault for taking the advice too seriously, but damn I wished someone advised me back then to just do your own thing.

[nomadia]

That's sounds exactly like what I did

[Rapidash]

Stop counting on people, OR have no expectations.
Greatest and saddest advice I’d give myself. The amount of times I had been disappointed... not worth it

[IslanderSparkle_Siki]

Don't live a life just to please others.
Live life to the fullest and fuck what people say about you.
Be confident, love yourself and date!!

"She's trying to fuck you, get your head out of your ass and your dick out of your pants!" Is one I'd give my 14 year old self about a bunch of girls in my class who kept hinting vague shit. I wasn't even inexperienced, just oblivious.

[james2018dean]

My piece of advice would be that the past does not always determine who you will be. This advice would have changed the way I saw myself previously, and changed my future in some better ways earlier than when I realized it.

There won't be just 1 there will be at least 100 to give.

"Just have sex buddy. You learn all you need mentally emotionally and even philosophically." Hands over a fressh bud to my younger self. Proceeds to walk away while taking in a puff of vape. Coughs intensily.

[rjroy3]

Depends at what point in my life. I'd rather just coach my past self for like a month so he really has shit on lock

[Anonymous]

Drop out of high school and work and stay away from men!!!

Take time getting to know a significant other before marrying or getting serious. It pays off.

[vernon42]

And even then there is no guarantees bc I was married for 20nyears and she decided she didn-t want to be a mother or a wife.

[Screenwriter]

@vernon42 Too bad it took her 20 years to decide that and kept you tied up with her. Yeah. There are not guarantees. Just talking about limiting your risks. Nothing's air tight.

[DeviloftheValleys]

i wouldn't. if i did, i wouldn't be the same person. and i like being me.

[koolkal]

Do your research so you can make informed decisions. If your not well informed then later you'll most likely regret the decisions you made.

[moststrangestguy]

You where fucking right : punch every person who you know deserve it including the girls show no mercy

[lilrutt]

Dont let your friend mom and dad tie you up at 15 and get plowed down by a 13 inch monster cock

Take school more seriously and stop drinking.

Whatever you think you are doing now. Stop it, and go this way instead.
