11 THINGS I WISH I KNEW BEFORE MY 21 YEARS

I had my life planned out, or so I thought. Looking back now, I wish that I can go back in time to change a few things. Maybe my life would have panned out better. Perhaps I would not even be in this country but living abroad, pursuing my dream lifestyle.

Many people wish they had known about one or two things they could have fixed back in their 20s. People in this category are in their 30s and 40s. Some don’t even care that changing just one thing – if they had the opportunity to travel back in time – would mean giving up some other stuff.

In my case, I had no one to guide me in this crypto world, no one to tell me the crypto potential is huge.

Here are eleven things I wish I knew before my 20s. If you are in your teens or early 20s and reading this article, the information laid out may help you a lot in the next decade of your life.

1. No one has it all, no matter how rich or endowed they were. It is all about making excellent use of what you have and taking care of it.

2. Your habits today could affect your future; it could cause heartache or prevent a heart attack tomorrow.

3. Many individuals erroneously believe that time heals every wound under the sun, especially the ones they made to happen.

4. Intense passion is a lot like a flash in the pan; it never lasts. Severe heat may burn brightly, but it is for a time.

5. You are not perfect. No one else under the sun is perfect, so you are under no obligation to be perfect.

6. We live in this world together, but each person has his lane mapped out for him. This means you are directly responsible for the outcome of your life. You are also responsible for obtaining the information that you need to make your life better and smoother on earth.

7. If you are going into a joint venture, ensure that the other partner is also bringing a lot to the table. If not, keep their names off the operating agreement.

8. When you are a victim, you may lead an unfortunate life. But then, so is getting discriminated against.

9. You have no reason to conduct yourself as a confident person. You should work very hard to earn that confidence.

10. No one is waiting to fix you up into something else neither should you attempt to fix anyone up. It is only a waste of energy. Invest that energy into what makes you feel safe and happy.

11. Never cling to a cold hand; it will never warm your heart. You can lick your wounds without belittling yourself. Take time out to find those ways and don’t let your good character change with any title.
