Bits & Pieces of What I have Learnt #PartOne

These are things I have learnt from life, other people and personal experiences. I hope that you might find something that will help support you mentally or emotionally. Or maybe something that will inspire you somehow.

Don’t forget that I am still learning so there will always be more,,,

• Always trust your gut feeling no matter how simple or silly the thing is.
• Trust is earned not given.
• Love is not everything in life.
• Read. Read. Read.
• Family should always come first.
• Everyone on us is afraid of something.
• It’s ok to be alone.
• Spend sometime alone so you could appreciate the time with others.
• Get to know people.
• Sometimes all what we need is silence
• Have some manners, beliefs and stand
• Better have one close friend that 100 that don’t know you well.
• Keep your smile on no matter what happens.
• God has a plan for you no matter what goes on, things will always turn out to be better than what you wanted them to be.
• Actions speak louder than words. -Trust me those who talk are most likely bullshitters. Unless they show you do not trust them.
• If you have a will you have a way.
• If you want something done right do it yourself.
• “Those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.”
• You don’t have to explain yourself to anyone.
• If it makes you happy then do it. As simple as that.
• One day you will run out of excuses. Man up and stand up for your beliefs and views.
• It is ok not not be ok.
• No one knows everything. That includes you and I.
• Those who are meant to be will be.
• Never ever go with the flow. You are not a dead fish
• Don’t settle for less that what you deserve. Always have high standards. Most likely you’ll lower them to the wrong ones.
• Keep yourself busy.
• Try to work out at least three times a week. If you’re not athletic or into sports
• Drink a lot of water and most importantly the minute you wake up. ( I believe that it is a way of washing the insides of you) just like brushing your teeth and washing your face. Your throat needs to freshen up.
• The right ones will fit in your life eventually. Just do not cling to people and you’ll notice some will drift away while others will stay.
• It’s not selfish to put yourself first and make sure that you have some peace of mind. You should take care of yourself.
• If you do not love yourself nobody else will.
• If you do not respect yourself. trust me no one will.
• You set the ways of how others treat you, if people are treating you wrong look at yourself first then you’ll know why.
• Some people will fade with time, you got to know that and live with it. No one will last forever not even you.
• Learn something new everyday even if it was a new word. Trust me it will make a difference.
• It’s ok not to understand and you can ask over again until you do.
• Everyone deserve a second chance but thats it. Giving a third chance also means you’re stupid.
• Be self motivated because eventually people will get bored from motivating you.
• Appreciate the little things around you.
• It is ok to say “NO”.
• Quality Beats Quantity; anytime any day..
• If you know something and can benefit others, do share it.
• You don’t have to like everyone because you see, not everyone likes you.
• It’s ok not to be liked by everyone because you don’t like everyone either. 
• Never blackmail someone emotionally, this will corrupt their lives for as long as they lived.

I have figured that my list will even go longer than this so I decided to part them. I appreciate you taking the time to read all that and if you reached here I just wanted to say Thank You.
