Life never gets easier. However, you still get the choice to decide how to react, what to perceive and how intensely you care about certain things more than others.

I rounded up some good tips I’ve ever received which are to the point. It’s 10 pieces of life advice that can help you navigate the coming years with a better perspective on what’s truly important.

You can take them in and pass them on.

  1. To you or your kids: If you are assaulted on campus, notify the police, not campus security.
  2. If you’re lost and have no idea what to do next, start trying to save money now. You will definitely thank yourself later on.
  3. Enjoy the small stuff like your back not hurting.
  4. The things your parents are trying to keep you from doing are more than likely the mistakes of their youth that they wish they could do differently. However,…
  5. When someone says you can’t do something in life, it means they can’t do it, not that you can’t.
  6. Learn the signs and signals of toxic relationships. All too often these can start as early as high school and before you know it you’ve wasted years of your life being someone’s victim.
  7. Don’t put off dealing with mental health issues. Developing unhealthy coping mechanisms for emotional issues will [screw] you up big time down the road. If you have issues, deal with it head on, right away. It can take time, but start the work now.
  8. It costs $0.00 to treat someone with respect.
  9. Winners focus on winning, losers focus on winners.
  10. Advice is free, and if you respond to it with “I know” then you’re probably not gonna figure your problem out.
