1. Don’t hide
from vulnerability. Even when it means that you might end up in a puddle of
pain, do it anyways.
2. Propose new ideas that you can and want to take on. It might be a long shot. But
you also just might end up spending three months in Europe or your dream
country.
3. Go ahead and show up at his door. (Or hers.) There’s something beautiful
about being so unafraid to love… even if you’re wrong.
4. Say yes often. To strangers. To a new
friend. To weird opportunities. Adventure awaits.
5. Use your words for good. They’re so much more powerful
that way.
6. Don’t let distance keep you from the ones you love
7. Don’t stalk any ex’s social media. Just don’t. For real.
8. When you feel wronged, let it go. Honor it, and let it go.
9. Get on a last-minute plane to surprise someone you
love. It’s too fun.
10. Don’t shy away from other people’s grief. The greatest gift you can
give is to sit with them in that. Plus, they really need you in those moments.
11. Ask for help from people smarter and more talented than
you. They want to see you succeed.
12. Take a leap of faith. And take it often.
13. Raise your hand for the opportunity that scares the shit out of
you. You’ll be so proud you did
14. Be OK being alone. And be equally OK with
feeling lonely.
15. Family. Near, far, blood or not.
Family.
16. You’re constantly growing. What you didn’t like last
year may just be something you fall in love with this year. Like dogs.
17. You are connected to something so much bigger. Your time here, however
fleeting, is a journey of the spirit. Do everything in your power to stay
connected to that. To the universe guiding you. To your soul’s whispering to go
after your dreams. And to the sweet, sweet love of this cosmic experience.
