If I were 22, and had this brain, life experience and survival skills... I wish I had had someone to repeat these things to me.

1. I would repeat continuously: "Sky is the limit!”
IF I WERE 22 …

2. I would never believe people
who wanted me to be more of
anything because I was beautiful
the way I was. Self-confidence is
the key to happiness.

3. Cherish the joyful moments with
your family to give you courage
when the hard times come.

4. Believe in yourself even
when everyone else is
doubting you.
Spend time in nature to
recharge batteries.
Always think of the
person that loves you the
most and what she
would say to you when
you are about to face the
world.

5. Don’t put your ambitions aside
just because ‘there’s time’. Time
and tide wait for no one, get it?
An opportunity passed is an
opportunity lost.

6. Make learning fun for you and
your students.
Manage a school band, even if
you are a teacher! Old ambitions
die hard .

7. Explore your options, just for
fun!

9. Never ever listen to your mother
when it comes to career and
men! She means well but she’s
afraid for you and her fear may
keep you both stuck in the rut!

10. Go ahead and be selfish! Don’t
step on other people’s toes
unless they do the same! You
are the most important person in
your life.

11. Get rid of toxic people and ‘friends’
who compete with you. It’s not
healthy! Build close relationships with
people who really care about you.
