5 Things I've learnt in my life that you NEED to know!
1) Not everyone is going to like you. Don't be disheartened by this or worry, we simply cannot rub up the right way everyone we meet in life and 9 times out of 10 you've not done anything personal.
2) Do not listen to any ones opinion of yourself - this includes family, friends and strangers. It has taken me years and alot of words said to finally not take to heart what others say about me. The only opinion that matters is your opinion of yourself!
3) Stand up for yourself. Don't wait for anyone to take your side, stand up for you or back you up in any situation. You have a voice. Do not let anyone talk for you, if you dislike what someone if saying TELL THEM! We often regret the things we don't say.
4) Continuing on from 3 don't leave things left unsaid, do what you want to do! If you want to let someone know how you feel TELL THEM! As much as we'd love to be mind readers no one is. If you have a dream or a goal don't let fear stop you from achieving it. Don't pass up opportunities, trust me when I tell you that they won't come around again and nothing wait until 'you're ready'! GO FOR IT!
5) It's okay to ask for or seek help. Don't let fear, embarrassment or shame get in the way if you need to ask for help. It will benefit you in the long term, taking care of yourself should be priority over a job, house or even relationship. If somethings getting you down ignoring it won't make it go away.
