1.Family is the most important... Everyone in your family is different, some may be nuts, some infuriating, some funny, some lovable.. But how ever they are, they are the people who will have your back no matter what....
2.Being fit makes you feel confident, being the opposite makes you feel the opposite!! I'm not saying you have to be skinny... Nope, having a damaging body image and pushing yourself to get thin is not the solution... Fit for me is having a good stamina.. Being able to climb mountains, run in marathons, play with your kid without getting breathless.. And yes it doesn't harm one to have a flat-ish tummy... Clothes do look better and you do feel better as well ... You have to stop killing yourself but don't give up on yourself either...
3.Friends you made in or before your early twenties will last forever... The ones who've known you when you were a silly kid and have watched you grow into a sillier person will always stand by you!
4. Patience is something I've still not mastered!! Especially with people... Slow dumb people! No but seriously... It's important to be patient with people.. More like to give them a chance... Because at the end of the day each one has had a different journey and has reached this point in life using a different path.. So you have to learn to respect that... Or else you might just miss out on getting to know some awesome people..
5. You will feel like giving it all up at least twice a year... Work relationships life everything.... The trick is to weed out what didn't work for you.. Remove the toxic people the toxic thoughts... Make a drastic change once every year... From something small to something big.. Change homes or shift jobs, get a new dress or hair cut.. Join a class in something you never would... Anything to shake things up a little.. It will help you realise what you really want to change and what you are ok with...
6. Put being happy as your topmost priority... Work money friends family deadlines commitments will all fall into place...just let your core be happy... Even when things get tough and you feel like nothing is worth nothing... Especially then actually, dig deep into your core and keep it happy...
7. Travel is very important ... Not because everyone is doing it, not because it's cool to do it... But because it's a waste of a good healthy life to not see the world and everything it has to offer... The things you will experience cannot be compared to anything else...
8. Help others... And be selfish..! It's one and the same.. When you help someone you will feel a part of you grow, a part of you expand... So for your own happiness ... If nothing else...Help others!!!!
9. Read a lot... Books of every kind... Every genre.. Every size... Don't get stuck to just thrillers or just self help.. Sometimes you can learn something valuable from a very simple story book...
10. Keep your mind calm always... I have the worst temper ever.. The slightest thing sets me off.. But over the years I have worked very hard to keep calm.. To take a deep breath.. To let things go... A calm kind mind will always help you think better, make smarter choices, learn more....
And 11. Love more... Love with your whole heart and soul... Don't love based on what you think you will get in return.. Love because that's what you want.. When you can feel that kind of deep soul wrenching stomach hurting love.. Love more....
