25 Harsh Truths I would Tell My 25-Year-Old Self

To look back is to learn, not feel pain.

We are on this earth to grow and evolve. If so, we need to face challenges and use past experiences as learning opportunities. With age comes wisdom; let’s use it.

When we look back, what are some common thoughts?

▶ Don’t sweat the small stuff (cliche, I know).
▶ Nothing is the end of the world like we felt.
▶ Maintain relationships with friends from childhood.
▶ Screw material possession. Go for experiences.
▶ Travel more. See the world.
▶ Do the thing that scares you.
▶ Don’t follow the social narrative.

These are the ones that come to mind for me.

Hindsight is 20/20, but we should not ignore it.
