There are many times in life when I just took the time to relax and reflect. Don’t you just wish that you can go back and advise your younger self of all life’s lessons? There are so many things I’ve learned about life and how things work.
Back then I thought I had it all figured out. Everything seemed so easy and played out. If I only knew!!!
In life, you always take in consideration of where you come from to try to determine where you’re going. One thing is a fact. I wouldn’t be where I am today without all of my experiences thus far. The school of life has allowed me to learn from every twist and turn. I fully know and love myself . And through all of my ups and downs, I know what I want out of life.
So what would I tell my younger self?
1- You’re worth it. Always know your self worth and value.
2- Always, always, always stand up for yourself and the people you love.
3- Always surround yourself with the people you love. The individuals that push you to excel and want nothing but the best for you.
4- There’s nothing wrong with saying no!
5- You will have a few downs in life, but for the most part ,life is great. Things will always get better.
6- All of the hard work in school will definitely pay off. Keep grinding!

14- Find a trade that you love. Master that trade. Always have something to fall back on when times get rough or just to have extra income.
15- Many mistakes and wrong decisions will be made. Don’t beat yourself up. Learn from them.
16- Never become a people pleaser. Do what makes you happy without worrying about what others think.
