These life advices are coming from my own experiences:
- Watch how you think of yourself — The way you treat yourself, world is going to treat you no better. Think of yourself positively, that should reflect. Your thoughts shape your future.
- Think before accepting someone’s support during tough times — That person will support you but later you will feel a burden, not always, but there comes a point when you feel like you should have dealt with your problem on your own.
- Cut the toxic people off — Can’t emphasize this enough. Please cut them off. Now this is very common that we don’t know that someone is toxic to begin with. But as and when you start feeling that someone’s toxic, just stay away. They will only bring you down, don’t even try to change them. Forget how close friends you guys used to be.
- Don’t plan revenge- Just plan your future. Your success is going to be a slap on the faces of those who treated you bad, those who disrespected you ever.
- Little bit of ego is needed — But know in what set-up. I don’t call it ego. Just be little reserved when it comes to workplaces and also the rest of the areas of your life. This will help you in the long run. Stop entertaining everyone that comes your way. Value your time and energy.
- Be judgemental — Yes. You should be able to judge what could be the true intention of someone who’s trying to come close to you. This applies to many areas of life — when making new friendships, relationships, also people at workplaces.
- Networking — Whenever you meet new people wherever you go, just try and stay connected. I won’t say become their friends because that doesn’t happen easily once you are out of college, but make a network of people working in diverse fields. You never know who will take you where!
- Stay loyal and keep secrets — Important trait to possess these days. Someone telling you their secret and expecting you to keep it to yourself shows that they trust you, please don’t ruin it. Also stay loyal in friendships and relationships.
- Don’t depend on others for your happiness — Never! If you depend on others for bringing you happiness, be ready to get disappointed. It should be you who makes you feel content, peaceful and happy from within.
- Go for the thing that you have on your mind — Start early, start with confidence rather than postponing the plans. If you don’t go for what’s burning inside your mind or your head, you’ll regret later.
That’s all for now.
Ciao.
