XI Things I Learned In 2018 & Will Use In 2019

I. Love And Be Loved

It is so important to love and cherish those special people in your life. Make sure you surround yourself with people that will love you too.

II. Make Time For Yourself

Next to loving others, it is also so important to love yourself. You should be a priority in your own life. Stay happy and healthy.

III. Don't Rush

Remember to enjoy the moment. Don't try to rush into anything.

IV. Prioritize Your Money

Money is an extremely stressful concept. But it doesn't always have to be. Budget your money and watch how you are spending it. Make sure your priorities are in line. You are smart enough to decide between saving your money or spending it on a material you don't need.

V. Some Days Will Be A Solid 4/10

Some days are just really average. Some days are awful. Most days you will sit in a chair and work. It’s OK. Not every day can be 10/10. Don’t let anyone make you feel bad about that.

VI. It’s Okay To Get Rid of People Who Bring You Down

You can get rid of people who are holding you back, or who make you feel like a smaller version of yourself. You have to protect yourself and know what makes a good friend. Don’t feel bad for letting go. You’ll thank yourself in the future.

VII. Laughter is the Best Remedy

Laughter and good company can make any situation better. Make a list of things that make you laugh and go back to it when you're feeling low.

VIII. Be Yourself

Don't change yourself to try to appeal to other people. Don't apologize for being yourself. If people don't like you for being you, let them go.

IX. There's Still So Much To Learn

The world is enormous and full of possibilities. Keep an open mind.

X. Mistakes Can Be Good

You can only grow from your mistakes. Take them each as a lesson.

Overall, make it a year of accomplishments, success, challenges, and growth. You want to look back next year and say, "Wow! I can't believe I did all that. I can't wait to see what's next."
