Regrets from High School

I am a big believer in things happen for a reason. That being said, I don’t have anything specifically I would change. I would not say, “past self, do not do this, etc” but I do have some wishes that I wish I knew then or was more aware of then.

  • Be kind to everyone, there are such things as bad days and the best advice for how to become a better person, or one piece of advice, is to be compassionate to everyone
  • Do not think that bringing other people down will bring you up. Don’t do this, especially to other women
  • Gossiping is a not so great social activity. Instead talk about the things in life that matter, not some stupid gossip
  • Let the drama go and remove yourself from it, it’s not exciting it’s toxic
  • There will be people in your life who don’t want to be in it, and it’s okay to let them go. There are people meant to be there and others not. If someone isn’t making an effort, really isn’t making an effort, let them go
  • You cannot help people who do not want to be helped or help themselves. No matter what happens it is like a black hole and it will only suck you in, detach yourself so you don’t go in, but remain open and there, do not completely detach
  • Do not leave things unsaid or opportunities un-taken. You are young, but there will be a time you might wonder what could have happened. Try your best to avoid that. Follow your heart, but realize it’s better to try and put yourself out there than to never say anything.
