Advice for teenagers

 Hey guys!! Today I'll post some of the quotes that have helped me getting through adolescence.

1. Be yourself - Okay, this one is VERY typical, but you should really listen when people tell you to be yourself. Life is too short to waste time pretending you're someone else, and when you finally realise this, I can assure you that you'll be way happier.

2. Don't rush to grow up - Enjoy who you are right now. There's no need to rush, everything will come eventually.

3. Don’t try to plan your entire life out - Again, everything will come eventually, just live to the fullest and worry about the present.

4. Listen to your parents - Believe me, I know this one is not easy, because- they don't understand us at all! How are we supposed to listen to them if they don't even try listening to us? Well, you should try nonetheless. They are your parents, and they just want the best for you. They've been teenagers too, and maybe they don't know exactly what we're going through , but I'm sure they'll try to help you anyway.

5. It's okay to not be okay - Don't hide your emotions. Cry if you need to, allow yourself to feel bad, but don't let those feelings control you. "There are good days and hard days. Don't let the hard days win" (A court of mist and fury, by Sarah J. Maas)

6. Friends will come and go

7. Cool is just a matter of opinion - Know that nobody is cool in absolute terms – that is to say that what one person views as cool, another will see as uncool.
