Advice: What is the best advice your mother ever gave you? (via Quora)
- Just Wait it out - Patience is a virtue. When facing an impossible task/decision, Sleep on it.
- When you marry, you marry a family. Make sure it’s a good one. When you have kids, you’ll truly understand what it’s like to love someone more than yourself.
- You are not Old! You’re a 9 year old Adult (on my 27th birthday - This is more of a statement than advice, but it changed my outlook).
- Whatever it is that you want to do, Do it now. - Worrying is not doing. Just Start.
- Keep Receipts, Document everything. You never know when you may need it. Take Photos, even if you think you don’t look good. It will pass & you will have saved a memory.
- Cook - so you can feed yourself, stay healthy, save money & entertain others. Eat like royalty but dress modestly.
- Say No to Credit. Debt ties you down. Learn to budget.
- Don’t tell others your plans.
- Don’t judge a person based on a single action. People are more complex than that. Anyone can have a bad day. It’s not always about you. Learn to listen.
- The World doesn’t ‘owe’ You. You are not entitled to anything. You want something, work for it. Then work some more.
- Happiness is a choice you make everyday not an outcome. Choose to be happy & love yourself, so that others can love you. Avoid negative people.
- Travel, Teach, Volunteer, Read (a lot), try new things & make mistakes while you are young - it will help you mature & keep you humble.
- Don’t hold grudges. It’s hard but if you want to succeed you cannot hold grudges. Let it go. Harbor compassion instead.
