Life Lessons I learned along the way by Gina Meyers

 

Many students are going back to school, some chose to take summer school and didn't get much of a break, but it got me thinking about all of the advice I have received through the years and all of the advice that I have given over the years.

I've worn many hats and continue to juggle a lot of different hats which makes me very unique and acrobatic. Jokes aside, if I knew what I know now, this is what I would have told myself. But, then again, perhaps I did hear it, but it didn't absorb. 

So marinate in this.

Remember:

#1

This is the time of your life.

I had to be reminded of this one last week when I decided to go to Yosemite at the last minute. 

A Trader Joes Bag reminded me of this sentiment.

Someday, when I'm old, I will look back on this moment as the happiest time of my life. 

Remember:

#2

Use your time wisely.

Remember:

#3

Handle your own problems before someone else handles them for you. You might not like how they handle your problems.

Remember:

#4

Life is a dance you learn as you go, sometimes you lead, sometimes you follow.
