You dont have to react to everything thats happening around you.

I wish I knew when I started working that a college degree doesnt guarantee anyone instant success.

And just because youre great in school doesnt automatically mean you will immediately be great in life.
Classrooms are so much different from the real world.
Almost every one of us literally starts from scratch as soon as we graduate.
Our diplomas are nothing compared to life and professional experiences.
We have so much dirt to eat before we become someone big.
Humility will save you from a lot of disappointments.
Assuming no one cares about your precious feelings will save you tons of disappointment.
Because the truth is, youre probably not as special as you think you are.
Demanding attention orgoing out of your way to get attentionwill kind of make you appear like a psychopath.
I have met so many people who act as if they deserve to be treated differently.
If we cant think of a valid answer, I guess its better that we stay humble.
You are capable of turning off your love for certain people.
This is a skill I damn hope I had when I was in the beginning stage of my 20s.
I used to be too kind, too forgiving, too smiley, too much of a big-hearted person.
But the world is full of horrible people who took advantage of my openness.
Then wash your hands clean and move on.
You dont have to react to everything thats happening around you.
Blocking and muting dont end on social media.
Its applicable in real life too!
Nobody owes you anything, in the same that you dont owe anyone anything.
Just go live alawfullife and dont give a crap.
These people who give you so many worries will definitely not matter in few years time.
So its okay if you cant force yourself to talk to someone you dont feel like talking to.
You have free will and choices, always remember that.
A broken heart should not be an excuse for not loving again.
Youve been given promises that never came true.
Youre not the only one.
And these experiences make our journeys here on earth more interesting.
Because we all have common things to share and complain about.
Refusing to fall in love again just because somebody ripped your heart before is such a bummer.
Give yourself a break and give romance another try.
Its nice to go all crazy in the name of love once in a while.
Research shows that clutter causes anxiety.
Boring fact, but still makes sense.
Maybe you like holding on to things that have value and history.
Maybe you like collecting clothes.
Or maybe you just generally love material things.
Stop being afraid of coming across as cheap just because you only buy stuff that you need.
It hurts to lose friends but youll get over it.
Youre going to change a lot and so does everyone in your age.
Some friendships that you had for years will fall apart.
Its part of growing up.
You will lose people.
You will move somewhere else.
You will start a new life, have a new job, pursue different things.
You dont have to feel guilty for outgrowing the ones you used to share most of your time with.
Nobody can give you an absolute guarantee that theyll stay in your life forever.
Timing can be your worst enemy.
Timing is mean like that.
Sometimes youll find out the reason why its acting like a devil.
But if you think about it, maybe not knowing the answer will actually hurt you less.
Not having a complete control of your fate in your hands is normal.
Its something we all go through.
And the sooner you learn to be okay with it, the more peaceful your life will be.
Not all of us are going to end up in a happy relationship.
Legacy matters more than money.
You know what they say…you cant bring your money with you on your grave.
Im sure we were all put here for a bigger purpose.
We didnt just sprout from the ground.
And we are all given one life to make an impact, whether small or big, around us.
If youre only working hard for money, youre probably living a misleading life.
Work hard because you want to start a change.
Work hard because you want to leave a remarkable history for the generations to come.
