21 Things I've Learned In 21 Years



  1. You can't be good at everything
  2.    First impressions aren’t always correct
  3.   Being a ‘grown up’ doesn’t have to be boring
  4. Always treat everyone you meet with unconditional respect
  5.  Allow yourself time to feel happiness, sadness and everything in between
  6. Sometimes you can’t fix it and you have to let go
  7. Stop asking ‘what if’ and focus on ‘what is’
  8. You’ll never stop needing your family, perhaps just in new capacities
  9. Losing touch with an old friend doesn’t mean you or the other person did anything wrong
  10. Never forget the times you made yourself proud
  11. Time really does make all things better
  12.  When you feel motivated just power through because most of the rest of the time you won’t be!
  13. Step out of your comfort zone. It may be the best thing for you!
  14. Everyone else is just another person, who has the same doubts, fears and concerns that you do. Never let anyone treat you as though they are above you and don’t fear anyone on the basis that you “aren’t as good”
  15.  People deserve second chances, very few deserve a third
  16.  Intelligence will not take you as far as kindness and humility does
  17. Always look forward
  18. To get from A to B, you might have to visit C, D and E first
  19. If you get your heart broken you will get over it, and find happiness with someone new
  20. Life is precious - don't waste it
  21.  Acknowledging you were wrong can put things right


Some of these are easy lessons and some are hard ones, but I think most people can relate to this list in some way, shape or form!
