25 Lessons I Learned In 25
- It’s okay to feel bad, and to say you’ve fucked up your 25, that’s what 20’s are for! It’s normal, it’s called Quarter Life Crisis! To easily explain check out this BuzzFeed post. What a precious lesson I learned this year.
- Do everything you never do before then you’ll realize things that you want or you don’t want. You may not know what exactly you want but at least as Nico and Vinz said “I know what I’m not”.
- Start thinking to get yourself together and work towards it.
- Have goals, make plans, for 5 years ahead, for the rest of your life. Have back up plan. Write it down. *but be patient and be okay if things don't go according to your plan. (You know what I mean, it's about keeping the balance.)
- One important thing about adulthood and need to start practicing is to: control yourself by controlling your mind. Choose your thoughts carefully especially if you’re a deep thinker.
- Learn acceptance. LET GO. What yours will always be yours. Or should I say “nothing in the world is yours”? cos when you die you won’t take anything. *RIGHT? Very important and I need to keep reminding everyone.
- You’ll eventually get over a bad break up, give it a time.
- Focus on what makes you happy, the people around you who loves you, notice kindness and love and be grateful for that.
- Pay back, or pay it forward. Give back. The world needs you. Donate your time, energy, skills, money to those in need.
- Always choose love, hope, positivity. Spread #positivevibe.
- Money never makes you happy. Happiness only real when shared. TRUE

- God loves you, you’re welcome to come to Him anytime. He can take you no matter what.
- Proof to yourself that you can. You are your own biggest enemy, fight those voices inside your head that tells you you can’t do. Fight your laziness. Fight the devil, the negativity.
- Know yourself more and more so you can conquer yourself. At the end, life is about that. Remember, Life of Pi?

- Have the habit to write, write your feelings, a diary, a journal, a logbook. It will be useful someday. Free your mind from the thoughts by putting it in words. Write for yourself. Write to inspire.
- It’s okay to feel lonely or be alone, then you’ll figure out you don’t need anyone else to be happy. You are strong. You don’t depend your wholeness or cover up your loneliness by having someone. Plus you’ll appreciate accompany when you have them.
- Be true and honest to yourself. Ruby Rose said “Only you know who you were born to be, and you need to be free to be that person”. Put your armors down, be free. Free yourself.
- Don’t be afraid. Don’t let people, society, religion, institution, whatever, define who you are, what you do, who you love.
- Don’t settle yet, take challenges, opportunities, try something new, try everything new. Always give a try.
- Use common sense, you’re an adult, be responsible for everything you do and every choices you made.
- Consider other people. Have the eyes to see and the heart to understand. It’s called sympathy and empathy. Put yourself in other’s shoes. See from many points of view.
- Learn financial knowledge. Many people are smart and hard workers but don’t have financial literacy. If you want to know what I mean, read "The Richest Man in Babylon” by (I suggest to read it in your native language, this originally written in the old time where the author used old English) and also “Rich Dad Poor Dad” by Robert Kiyosaki. Old time favorites. Basic truth.
- Mind your own business. Worry about other people only if they want you to mind about them.
- Love and take care of yourself. Always.
- At the end, everything is alright, and going to be alright. Tudo bem. ça va. Life goes on. Obladi oblada. Na na na na .....
