Day 22- Five Things That Almost Ruined My Life

Today, I go over five lessons that I’ve learned by age 25 that I didn’t know at age 18. If I hadn’t learned these five lessons, it definitely could’ve ruined my life. If I would’ve learned these lessons earlier it would’ve saved me a lot of heartache, sadness, anxiety, depression, and many other problems! 

Those five lesson lessons are:

1. Don’t measure yourself with shallow metrics – based on growth, values, and the good that you do.

2. Balance life out – hyper focus is a superpower when used correctly, but you can’t hyper fixate on only one portion of your life. It’ll leave you feeling hollow and empty .

3. Real love is a steady buildup – it is not a fireworks and grand gestures. It is peace, continued growth, and a lot of effort.

4. Being nice isn’t the same as being good. Stand firm on what matters – say sorry genuinely and be true to yourself.

5. Success means legacy, not trophies and accolades. Your impact beats money when you die. People remember what you did and how you made them feel, not the zeros in your bank account.

Let me know what you think of today’s journal and if anything resonates with you. I still don’t have life all figured out, but I hope some of these lessons that I’ve learned help you along the way! Much love💙
