Life advice from an 81 year old#lifelessons#noregrets#bebraver#LifeAdvice#stopcomparing

I'm going to be 82 in a couple of months and here's some things that I wish I had known when I was younger. Do not spend your life waiting for the right time. There isn't one. Living starts when you choose to begin regardless of when that is. You might not feel brave but try to be braver than you feel. It's amazing you know but most fears vanish when you face up to them. Wishing you had that's a regret and it's a regret that will stay with you forever so stop comparing yourself to other people. Their lives and your lives were never meant to be the same. You are where you're supposed to be and not where someone else is. You are not behind you're where you are meant to be. That is very important to know. Your time is so valuable when it's gone it's gone and you'll never get it back. So spend your time wisely on things that matter and be with people you have fun with. Look after your health well you don't have to think about it because when you do it's too late. Don't hang on to things like hate, resentment, the need to always be right. Their cost you know isn't worth it. Tell people how you feel. Don't keep it bottled up inside. Say I love you when you do, say sorry when you should. Walk away when you have to. Believe me you don't need to know everything. Just keep moving your life forwards and don't be so critical of yourself. You know you don't need to know everything. Don't ever think you're behind the game or lost or less than perfect than the next person. And don't spend the next 40 years of your life learning all of this nice to talk to you.
