what I've learnt over the years

                 

                                  1.
You'll never be able to please everyone! Regardless of what you do, someone will always have an opinion. So, try to brush off a rude comment like it was a fleck of dust on your shoulders and forget about it.
                                   2.
Success doesn't happen over night. The secret to success is hard work and dedication! This goes for everything, whether it's in education, health and fitness, work or maintaining a relationship.

                                    3.
Travel the world! Go and explore all of God's creations and meet new people along the way. What's the point of limiting yourself to one area in the world when there are so many places and people who you've never encountered before or learnt the story of.

                                    4.
Relationships are hard work and not every relationship is worth your time and effort. It's all about working out what relationships are worth your time and what ones are not.

                                   5.
It doesn't cost you a penny to be a kind, caring person. A simple gesture like a smile can brighten up someone's day. My mother always said: "You should treat people the way you want to be treated".
