Learn and don’t get addicted

What advice would you give to your teenage self?

To be honest there would be a small number of things I’d advise teenage me to reconsider.

Firstly to avoid negative people whenever possible, as they drain every single last piece of hope and happiness from you. What they gain from it, I just don’t know. They are poisonous.

Take every opportunity to learn, don’t get caught out by the advance of technology, be a step ahead of yourself and protect your place in society.

Avoid addiction at all cost, your life is literally in your hands, don’t follow like a sheep, be brave and say no, you’ll thank me later in life.

Be your own boss, grab the opportunity to step out on your own, and be answerable to yourself only.

Move to a country where you pay less to the taxman.

Just be nice to people. It will open many doors for you.

Isn’t hindsight a wonderful thing.

Stay safe and be peaceful.

You and I

When you think of the word “successful,” who’s the first person that comes to mind and why?

Well there are a number of people you could list all the way from the “Z” listers right the way up to the successful business person or uber intellectual.

But this is one where we should take all the credit, yes, you and i.

Look how far we have come, look at what we have witnessed and dealt with, the good bad and indifferent and we are still here. We maybe a little battle scarred and fragile but why give all the credit to celebrities and sudo heroes?

Pat yourself on the back, or get someone to do it for you, and whilst you’re at it pat them on the back and say, “Well done you bloody super successful person”.

Stay great you 👉
