What would you do if you could Marty McFly back in time? What advice would give your younger self?
Be nice to everyone, particularly the underdog but also the bully.
Nothing is attractive about overly Aqua-netted bangs. Don’t do it. Save the Ozone Layer.
You will want those eyebrows one day. Don’t over pluck no matter what look is on the cover. It’s airbrushed.
Learn to establish boundaries with others and stick by them. It will be the most valuable tool in all aspects of your life.
Knowing how to drive a stick shift will set you apart.
Listen to the stories of your elders. Write them down. Ask for more.
Fall in love with the one that broke your heart again. It’s part of your foundation.
Always be truthful.
Quality over quantity in everything.
Take more pictures. Make photo albums when the memories are fresh.
Keep a journal.
Don’t eliminate doing the stupid things. Just don’t do the ones that will get you or someone else killed. Lessons are valuable. So is life.
Buy Apple stock. Lots of it.
Unless you know the locale of a flux capacitor sporting Delorean in your ‘hood, I’m not hopeful for time traveling lessons of yore. But the good news is, it’s never too late (expect maybe for your eyebrows and Apple stock) to start now. Take the advice you’d give to your past and make it present and future.
