If You Could Write A Note To Your Younger Self, What Would You Say? by megawax8: 7:25pm On Nov 12, 2015
Stumbled on this and thought to share....

Different persons were asked what advice they would give their younger selves. Some of the responses are below:

You could run into anyone from your past in your future. Don’t be stupid.

Take more vacations…

Set some goals so we can have a better life.We are much smarter than we think we are so stop second guessing yourself. Follow your instincts. We will get through anything and everything that life throws at us so don’t despair.

Don’t be so afraid of commitment. Sometimes it’s the thing you’re most scared of is the same thing that will end up setting you free.

Don’t be stupid. College is all about setting yourself up for the future.

Just tell her that you love her.

College degree!!!!!

Enjoy life.

Don’t sweat the little things and don’t worry about things you can’t control. Everything will happen the way it’s supposed to.

Look around once in a while… sometimes what you need has been right under your nose the entire time.

Trust your intuition more.

Be patient and don’t rush things!

Don’t worry about things so much.

Don’t smoke cigarettes.

Learn how to handle your finances better.

No matter how you feel today, get up, dress up andshow up.

So fellow nairalanders, If you could write a note to your younger self, what would you say?

*thinking* maybe take more positive risks would have been mine......hmmmmmm

your turn!!!

Waiting for the crew, 'Don't vote for APC' (those that politics have finished their head...lol)

1. Don't lose onyinye's contact.
2. Start fvcking when you turn 13.
3. Don't let those asswipes in school convince you that education is the key to a better life.
4. Read the sh*t outta chemistry, you might just develop the world next destructive device and that sh*t sells in legit and black market these days.
5. Study business and management very well and shake hands with Bill Gates.
6. Make a lot of friends....female friends especially.
7. If you can't obey from 1 to 6 which I know you won't, please obey this last one....Do not attend FUTO!

Before I forget, start smoking weed when you turn 16. It has this awesome, indescribable feeling.

Discard every attraction to every girl until your year five 2nd Semester.

Start learning programming the year you got your laptop, forget watching seasonal films and playing GTA....what a bunch of time wasting and unproductive activity.
Learn to play a musical instrument.

Never ever look at pornography.....

Start intensive cramming from Year one in university, don't just read to understand.
Keep working hard regardless of what people say, you are doing the right thing.

Have fun occasionally.
Go for that competition, you might have won the prize.

Stand and Speak up when necessary.
Keep up at not trying to please everybody.
Be proactive.
