If you could go back in time to a younger you, what would be a piece of advice you would give your self based on what you know now

Mine would be “everything is okay, you can take your foot off the accelerator and just enjoy yourself. You will get to where you want to be just slow down and enjoy the journey to get there. All these hours you think are beneficial means you will out on other exciting opportunities and adventures. Those people who are making life more difficult for you now will be gone and forgotten in a year so stop beating yourself up over them”

You don't need to be normal.

You don't have to fit into those silly little boxes people try to put you in.

Your freedom and happiness are worth so much more than you let them be in your head.

You're not a manic pixie dream girl, or at least, you don't have to be.

I'd tell myself to learn html and cgi scripting as soon as it came out, and not to let anyone talk me out of setting up and selling the idea of a "virtual mall" back in mid to late 90s. (It'll be too difficult. It'll never catch on. Who wants to try and buy things online without holding them or trying them on?).

Sigh. It could have been me launching penis-shaped rockets with my spare change.

I'd probably say - stop placing your value on the value others ascribe to you.

Find your own self worth, belief and confidence.

And I'd tell myself I'm deserving. Of love, of respect. Of kindness.

Thats definitely so relatable there. I think its something a lot of people try and fit a box.

Lets embrace all our uniqueness

“Trust me, you’re not fat. You will get fat, and it’s not your fault. Enjoy your body now, because this is as good as it gets. Also, enjoy life now, cause when you hit 20 you’re gonna be plagued with chronic pain and fatigue and your life will be a misery. Also also, you’ll have at least ten miscarriages (and one on your wedding day) but keep trying - you end up with a beautiful baby boy. Oh and don’t get loans or credit cards. You don’t need a fancy wedding, don’t get yourself into debt!”

Someone from the future will be coming to talk to you. Take no notice because if you don't make the mistakes you're undoubtedly going to, your life will take a different path and you won't live the wonderful life you have ahead.

Believe in yourself. Stop the doubts. You can do anything you want. You are more than a match for anyone.

Stop being so paranoid about your looks. They are flirting with you because they actually like you, they're not just humouring you or taking the piss. Take your chances and enjoy yourself or else you'll be getting told by a few people 'I really fancied you back then, but you never seemed to take the hints' in the future.
