You’re not an adult yet.

I know it seems like you're on your own, but you're not #adulting right now. Not even close.

You’re human.

It's OK to make mistakes, as long as you learn something from them.

Trust your gut.

You’ve got good instincts.

It’s not all downhill from 25.

I mean, things change, constantly and unexpectedly, but you've made it this far. And I've said it to so many people: I'd be a hypocrite not to believe that you're only as young as you feel.

And it's OK to feel old, as long as you remember how to be young.

It’s OK to start over.

Reinventing the wheel is the spice of life.

The hardest part isn’t over yet.

The crazy thing is that it hasn't even started for you. So, don't expect life to get easier because you've struggled in the past.

Practice what you preach.

Being young isn't a valid excuse to be a hypocrite.

Learn to forgive.

Learn to forgive for your own sake and others. Holding onto anger and living in the past are road blocks on the path of learning.

Take the hits and learn from the misses.

Things may not work out the way you intend them to. In fact, I know they won't.

But don't let setbacks in life inhibit personal and professional growth. Because babe, you've got a lot of growing to do. But you've got a good foundation, so don't be afraid to let life branch off in whatever way it will.

Who knows, it may turn out better than what you expected.
