Your talented, if one person turns you away, others can replace them, it’s okay if people don’t like you because people did not like Gandhi or Martin Luther King Jr. either. What you do to help others, will come back to you, if your humble about your good deeds, if nobody loves you, God does. You are beautiful, you just don’t realize it. You get stronger with age, so do not be intimidated or scared by your weakness and lack of strength. Your pain and problems serve a spiritual purpose and are not merely signs that God is too hard on you. Nobody is perfect but most flaws can be ignored. Never assume a person that disrespects you is capable of loving you. You have to work hard if you want to be the best.

- Don't date until you're older
- Don't have sex until you're older (but you'll probably do it before you're older anyway)
- Popularity doesn't matter
- Don't get overly attached to school "friends"
- If you have a genuinely good mother or father, please just listen to them when they tell you NOT to do something
- Focus on your studies and not the peer drama

These days, I think the most urgent thing is this: always be wary of a simple solution offered to a complicated problem. Hear it out- they can work SOMETIMES- but the smart money's that someone's just trying to sell you something.

And although the most obvious examples of that are political, it's far from all of them; it applies to far more personal-scale stuff, too. If you're not in a serious-emergency-do-now-or-die situation, it's ALWAYS better to pause for a minute and think things through before you commit to any serious course of action.

Be you. Love you. You are valuable no matter what other people might say or do. Don't let other people change you but don't be afraid of change or afraid to change. Reach for your dreams.

The world doesn't owe you anything, most people are only out for themselves, nothing is free there will always be a price for everything, life is hard. BUT it can still be beautiful and it is definitely worth living. You may not get what you want in life but you may get what you need and that's good also. Don't be a Karen, things will offend you but the world goes on. Open your mind to the opinions of people you don't agree with. Listen to your head, your heart isn't always your friend. Enjoy the little things and appreciate the ones that love you.

Relationships can be temporary and breakups are normal. Learning about sex is okay but there's lot of time in future to experience it. Should enjoy outdoor games and activities. Upcoming life will be mostly busy.

FilmGuy93 · Answer

1. Every adult has gone through the exact situation you're going through; don't be afraid to ask for insight so you can learn from their experiences.
2. Solve problems before they become problems.
3. Seriously... keep your damn room clean; it's a reflection of how you approach the rest of life.
4. Stop being such an asshole to your younger sibling (s). They probably need you more than you know.
