SOME OF THE BEST LIFE ADVICE I’VE EVER RECEIVED

 

A podcast I really enjoy listening to is Grazia life advice with Nikita Gill

 

I love the idea of people’s best life advice and thought I’d ask around my friends & family for the best life advice they’ve been given over the years.

 

⭐️My first is something my dad drummed into my brother & I as children which we used to roll our eyes at but, as a mum, I’ve repeated on numerous occasions. Good manners & common-sense cost nothing!!

This is absolutely true and sadly good manners are often forgotten in some people.

 

⭐️Your time is your most valuable asset so use it very wisely.

 

⭐️If something won’t be a problem in two years’ time, don’t give it more than 2 minutes thought now. Ok, some things take a bit more than two minutes to get over no matter how trivial but basically, it’s not worth losing sleep over people & situations that aren’t going to be a problem in your life a couple of years down the line.

 

⭐️Two wrongs don’t make a right. My beautiful Great Grandma always said this to me as a little girl.

 

⭐️Be kind, always be kind, and treat people as you would like to be treated. You never know what someone is going through.

 

⭐️Never judge anyone. If you haven’t walked a day in someone else’s shoes, you have no idea what they are going through so don’t ever judge their appearance, behaviour, or situation.

 

⭐️Read, read lots!

 

⭐️Life is not a dress rehearsal, and you only get one life so make the most of every minute!

 

⭐️As a mum you do everything you can possibly do to give your child roots to grow and wings to fly.

 

⭐️Work hard & stay humble!

 

⭐️Be a good listener!

 

⭐️Sometimes it’s good to take yourself out of your comfort zone!

 

⭐️Say no to things you don’t want to do. No one will thank you for it!

 

⭐️You can’t control other people’s actions, but you can control your reaction to them!

 

⭐️Trust your gut instincts!

 

⭐️Get rid of toxic people in your life, this is good advice whether it’s in person or on social media. If someone makes you feel bad about yourself or gives you bad vibes in any way get rid of them!!!

 

⭐️Work hard, play hard!

 

⭐️Find your passion!

 

⭐️Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard!

 

⭐️You have the opportunity to make a difference in the world and in yourself. Make each day meaningful!

 

⭐️Dress for success!

 

⭐️Your moods are contagious, share positive energy!

 

⭐️The power of a habit can transform your life!

 

⭐️An organised life is a calmer life!

 

⭐️Respect other people’s opinions when they differ from your own!

 

⭐️Love your body & take good care of it, you only get one!

 

⭐️Each day is filled with endless opportunities to show people how much you care, appreciate & value them!

 

⭐️Show up fully & be present!

 

⭐️Don’t waste your time worrying what other people think!

 

⭐️Believe in yourself always!
