To ask for the life advice that has served you well?

[mumofoneAloneandwell]

The truth shall set you free

Comparison is the thief of joy.

So so true!

Never a borrower or lender be.
Always have an exit plan/rainy day fund

This too shall pass

This one lives in my head

'We're all going the same way'.

“Let them”.

It wasn't meant to be.

Count your blessings

Be single unless you’re lucky to meet the right one. In the meantime your mind and skill will take you places unimaginable.
The heavy painful emotions will leave your body and you’ll be free again to raise your child in a healthy environment whilst building a great company

You never know what goes on behind closed doors

Ask for what you want, because of you don't ask the answer is always no.

Bravery feels like fear

Do the right thing

It’s pretty arrogant to think everyone is looking at you
If they haven’t changed at all since school that’s problem, not a plus point
Don’t shit on your own doorstep
(Thanks Dad)

You can't take it with you (money)....my mum's favourite saying

Be nice to everyone, you never know when you might need them.

Kindness isn’t weakness

Don't make life harder than it has to be.

You can't change anyone, you can only change the way you react to them.

Not so much advice but something I found super true

To paraphrase, saw this whilst watching In Treatment

'Youre never as free as when youre listening to music that you really like'

No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.

Everything is temporary.

If you dont ask you don’t get

You wouldn’t care so much about what people think of you if you realised how seldom they do.

When I was around 16, naively postulating on all the fantastic creative careers I might have one day… somebody said to me:
“If you really wanted to do it, you’d already be doing it.” (It’s true about all sorts of lofty ideals you tell yourself.)

If a bloke really liked you, he’d be with you.

The rules of misogny.

Let your yes be yes, and your no be no.

Just because someone doesn’t love you how you want, doesn’t mean they don’t love you with all they have.

Withhold not your heart from any joy (ie don’t pass up any opportunity to be happy about anything!)
