HAVE YOU EVER FELT LIKE " OH I WISH I KNEW IT SOONER" OR LIKE "WHY DIDN'T SOMEONE TELL ME THIS EARLIER " WELL IF YOU DID YOU MIGHT FIND THIS TOTALLY RELATABLE.
HERE ARE MY 20 THINGS I WISH I KNEW BEFORE MY TWENTIES
1. THERE IS NO SPOON-FEED AFTER SCHOOL
Facts, facts and facts. I learnt this the hard way though, I still remember the days, I struggled between not being a kid, but at the same time to not completely be an adult too. It can be so hard because it feels like a never ending phase, you don't really know what to do, but at the same time the whole responsibility is yours. In short, IF YOU WANT ANYTHING DONE, YOU HAVE TO GET UP AND GET IT DONE BY YOURSELF.
2. YOUR PARENTS ARE GOING TO BE THE BEST PILLAR OF SUPPORT
I can definitely keep it out there openly, that a genuine talk with your parents, no matter what the issue may be can work wonders for you. You just need to trust them, and fill in the communication gap. They can be the source of the best advice which will be specially personalized for you.
3. NO ONE CAN HURT YOU UNTIL YOU GIVE THEM THE POWER TO
The earlier you know the better.
4. ANYONE ELSE'S OPINION DOES NOT MATTER AT ALL. DO YOUR OWN THING.
If you don't like what I'm doing, I'm sorry I'll still do it. Wish i could use this term a lot earlier.
5. DOING MEDICINE COSTS YOU, YOUR YOUTH
If your'e a MED student, I feel you. I know what missing out on things feels like. But trust me it is worth it in the end, especially when you're driven by passion for it.
6. PEOPLE ARE MEANT TO COME AND GO, IT IS NEVER YOUR FAULT
The first thing to learn while being an adult, is to learn it by all means and what I've learnt is that the ones who leave were just not meant to be in your life, so you should just let them go. Plus there is no need for any blame gaming, because it just hurts you in the end.
7. START SAVING EARLY
Personally, I think that I've taken enough loans from my parents, it just feels a lot as you enter adulthood. so believe me save a section of your pocket money, you won't be broke and if you save really well you can invest in something useful.
8. YOU WILL NEVER FIND A SOLUTION, IF YOU KEEP IGNORING YOUR PROBLEMS
If you fear a spider that's been in your room for a while and just keep ignoring it, you're just living under fear, ignoring the fact you can actually get rid of it. So stop ignoring and start finding solutions to your problems because it either stays the same way.
9. NO MATTER WHAT YOUR BODY PHYSIQUE IS, YOU NEED TO START WORKING OUT
Your body undergoes a lot of changes after adolescence, I never had any issues remaining fit or anything diet related before adulthood and after that it changed a lot. You need to take out time specifically to work out, manage your diet and know what works the best for you because it's very easy to have a totally wrecked health with all the things you have to put up with.
10. LIVE IN THE MOMENT
What I mean to say here is although college can be hard and all but trust me if you're at a party, you need to forget everything, take some shots and hit that dance floor, you can never enjoy if you're thinking about the assignment next day or the huge scary exam next week, you gotta learn to live in the moment because life isn't all about exams as long as you pass them. LOL
11. YOU HAVE TO WORK HARD TO STAND OUT, LIFE IS A CUT THROAT BITCH
If you ask me personally the best combination is " WORK SMART + WORK HARD ".
12. GRAB EACH AND EVERY OPPORTUNITY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT IT CAN BRING YOU
Thank me for it later :)
13. LOVE YOURSELF BEFORE GOING OUT LOOKING LOVE
The fact you're in love and you guys are dating and all applies to a simple little fact, in short you love yourself and the other person just replicates how amazing you are by making you count all those things, so if you don't love yourself, there is no point in it. Happiness is from within, you gotta start loving yourself and embrace each and every portion of it, even the flaws, it will help you love and let you know how amazing it is to be actually known to be in love.
14. YOUR TIME IS WORTH MILLIONS
STOP WASTING TIME !! PERIODT !! Do something productive instead.
15. FAILURE IS OKAY, AS LONG AS YOU DON'T GIVE UP
Try it again, give it your best so that you don't have to again and again. Never give up, if you really want to do it, or else just settle for less.
16. EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON
Trust the process, it's meant for good.
17. YOU NEED TO MAKE GOOD CONNECTIONS
The people around you, are not just here for a while, but they will stick around and you for sure will re-encounter them at one point in your life, so you need to maintain good communication with them.
18. SOME FRIENDS ARE MEANT FOR LIFE
You meet such variety of people, you need to filter out the ones for you and if you're lucky enough, you find friends that are till death do us part.
19. THERE IS NO VALUE OF YOUR EMOTIONS IN THE MARKET
Yeah, no one really cares what you go through, so please don't waste your time and emotions sharing with the ones who don't deserve it. Share it only with the person you can trust.
20. IT IS NEVER TOO LATE TO START ANYTHING
The only reason I started my blog finally.
