Advice for my younger version

(Instead of New Year Resolutions)

If I would be 15, it would help me with this advice:

1. Try everything you want. You have enough time to make errors and to start it again. Try it in small changes and the damage won’t be too big.
2. Meet a lot of people, but… count only on some of them as being your closest friends.
3. Some people might disappoint you. It happens. Move on.
4. Express yourself more. You can feel better in this way.
5. Accept what and how you are. Nobody will love you more than yourself.
6. Sometimes you can criticize yourself more than others do. Stop this.
7. Find your values. And respect them no matter what.
8. Trust your feelings. Your relatives might advise, but they don’t feel a situation the same as you do.
9. Learn from everything around you. But assess what is good for you. And find a balance between learning and fun.
10. Work constantly on your dreams. Don’t count on luck.
11. Make objectives on long-therm. Only these persons can ”grow up”.
12. Be patient, rest enough, and eat healthily.
13. Smile honestly. This will make you feel better and the people around you will like being in your company.
14. Make sports… or better: dance.
15. Don’t be too kind. Not all people understand this properly and they might use you.

Do you remember these songs?
