A Letter To Me

If you could write a letter to your younger self, knowing what you've learned in life already, what would that letter say?

This is a really good one for me, there is a lot I would say. I may not even be 30 yet, but there are a lot of lessons that I would share.

1. Be wise with your money. Invest more. You may not be wearing those clothes from Express and Limited that long, so don't spend several thousand dollars on clothes in 6 months.

2. Finish college. Goinging back once you have kids is hard, so just do it right the first time. You have your degree for your whole life, the parties will quickly fade away.

3. Be mindful of your friends, and beware of those who only pretend to be. Just because you have known someone for a long time and have a history doesn't make them your friend. Don't let people step on you or take advantage, but be quicker to forgive and let go the little things.

4. Don't stop running. Once you stop with the 10-minute miles, it's a PITA to get back there.
