Wear sunscreen
If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it. The long-term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists, whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable on my own meandering experience. I will dispense this advice now.
Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth. oh, never mind, you will not understand the power and beauty of your youth until they've faded. but trust me, in 20 yaers, you'll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you can't grapsp now how much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really looked. you are not as fat as you imagine..
Dont't worry about the future. Or worry, but know that worrying is just as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubble gum. The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind, the kind that blindside you at 4pm, on some idle Tuesday
Do one thing every day that scares you.
Sing
Don't be reckless with other people's hearts. Don't put up with people who are reckless with yours
Floss
Don't waste time on jealousy. Sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you are behind. The race is long and , in the end, it's only with yourself.
Remember compliments you receive. Forget the insults. If you succeed in doing this, tell me how.
Keep your old love letters. Throw away your old bank statements.
Stretch.
Don't feel guilty if you don't know what you want to do with your life. The most interesting people I know at 22 didn't know what they wanted to do with their lives. Some of the most interesting 40-year-olds I know still don't.
Maybe you'll marry, maybe you won't. Maybe you will have children, maybe you won't. Maybe you will divorce at 40,maybe you will dance the funky chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary. Whatever you do, don't congratulate yourself too much, or berate yourself either. Your choices are half chance. So are everybody else's.
Enjoy your body. Use it every way you can. Don't be afraid of it or of what other people think of it. It's the greatest instrument you'll ever own.
Dance, even if you have nowhere to do it but your living room.
Read the directions, even if you don't follow them.
Do not read beauty magazines.or social medias nowadays. They will only make you feel ugly.
Get to know your parents. You never know when they will be gone for good. Be nice to your siblings. They are your best link to your past and the people most likely to stick with you in the future.
Understand that friends come and go, but with a precious few you should hold on. Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography and lifestyle, because the older you get, the more you need the people who knew you when you were young.
Travel.
Accept certain unchangable truth: Prices will rise. Politicians will philander. You, too, will get older. And when you do, you will fantasize that when you were young, prices were reasonable, politicians were noble and children respected their elders.
Respect your elders.
Don't expect anyone else to support you. Maybe you have a trust fund. Maybe you will have a wealthy spouse. But you never know when either one might run out.
Don't mess too much with your hair or by the time you're 40 it will look 85.
Be careful whose advice you buy, but patient with those who supply it. Advice is form of nostalgia. Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.
But trust me on the sunscreen
