17.- WHAT IS SOMETHING YOU LEARNED VERY LATE IN LIFE, BUT WISH YOU KNEW MUCH EARLIER?
Here are some things I learned very late in life, but wish I knew much earlier:
It's okay to say no. I used to be a people-pleaser, and I would often say yes to things that I didn't really want to do. I've learned that it's okay to set boundaries and say no, and that it doesn't make me a bad person.
It's important to take care of myself. I used to neglect my own needs, and I would often put myself last. I've learned that it's important to take care of myself physically, mentally, and emotionally.
It's okay to make mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes, and it's how we learn and grow. I've learned to be more forgiving of myself, and to not beat myself up over mistakes.
It's important to live in the present moment. I used to dwell on the past or worry about the future, and I would often miss out on the present moment. I've learned to be more mindful and present, and to appreciate the here and now.
It's important to follow my dreams. I used to be afraid of failure, and I would often talk myself out of pursuing my dreams. I've learned that it's important to take risks and go after what I want, even if it's scary.
I'm still learning, and I'm sure I'll learn many more things throughout my life. But these are some of the things that I've learned late in life, and I wish I had known them sooner.
