What Advice Would You Give An 18 Year Old?

Its hard to give u specific advice because I/we don't know you.

This is what I'd say to my 18 yr old self:-
Work on what you have a passion for. Don't be guided by fear or other people - they rarely if ever understand you.
Listen to your soul. Don't kid yourself with hamfisted attempts at "logic".
Make your goals scaleable. Enjoy the journey as much as the success.
Steer you connection with others. Plan it, don't let it drift.
Invest in your genuine relationships. Cut off those who are insincere, fickle or flakes.

 

Happy belated Birthday, Laci!

Think through your decisions ( as quickly and thoroughly, as you can) then act on them.
If it turns out to be a mistake, then you have made it quickly, and are that much closer to the right answer.

Surround yourself with people who are where you aspire to be.

Best of luck and best wishes in your future endeavors!!

Take care, ( & be safe)

 

I think this thread has proved old people dont know shit

 

Hotwater

 

I agree with not having kids.

 

To all the Meme-ers

Sorry, but go take a breath of fresh air, make a coffee, then come back re-read thread from start to finish


Thread makes US oldies sound like nutters

 

That was US as in we, not US as in ooomerica



.....although....

 

I gave all my advice to my two kidlings....I'm all out. And they haven't listened to one word I don't think.


I guess I can say this: Enjoy your youth...old age hurts.

 

Go fuck yourself. If she only wanted your opinion, she would have sent you a PM instead of making a thread.

 

Happy birthday laci!

My advice is to go to Montreal for your birthday. It's probably the closest place you can get legally drunk.

From some of your other posts, I get the feeling you are already on the right path to doing what you love in life! I would keep doing what your doing. Hell im 7 years older than you and you have a more thorough life plan than I do. You mentioned a ten year plan the other day, and mine is "don't die".

Make sure you take a few breaks sometimes though to relax and have fun!

 

Oh or Mexico if that's closer.

 

Unleashing hellish paradoxes like the one below onto the mind of a developing young lady trying to find her way in the world...

Does sound a bit nutters.

 

You were right the first time. I wouldn't send a dog to Mexico.

She can also get drunk at home, illegally. :cheers2:

 

This is going to sound cheesy, but most advice does I suppose.

Find your own path and walk it fearlessly. I spent too much time in the 18 - 22 years trying to conform to others' expectations of me and feeling depressed when I didn't meet their standards. Just do your own thing and never apologize for it.

 

Oooh, a bit touchy too

 

Not sure what I want to do with my life but the option you give for that situation sounds exhausting...!

 

old age hurts?no...as long as one can get older in a healthy way everything is allright,piece...
I'm putting a 7 in my age in a few monts...and...i still kick ass...and i feel that life itch... :bandana:
I'm not as wild as in my twenties..but...i'm still wild enough(ahah)it must be in my genes,i reckon

@Laci...just enjoy life..follow what your heart tells you...
be a nice girl or a wild one..but...control whatever you do in life... :bulb:
it's all up to yourself...between your 2 ears...control your mind..

Ummm I dunno...

Travel.
Party and be young, go out. But also work hard when it matters.
Take good care of your body and work out.
Maintain good relationships with your family members.
Don't try to fix broken people.
Moisturize.

Well, we're lazy Europeans...
