Trust your intuition and instinct. Don't override these for anything.

Don't treat inferiors as equals. It is condescending. It only makes them feel humiliated and mad at you. Always know your place.

1. Don't adopt. It would have been better if we had remained childless. (We adopted two older kids with SEVERE emotional and behavioral problems.)

2. Get at least a bachelors degree (just for your own sense of self esteem, if nothing else), and wait to marry until at least the age of 30.

3. Don't try to please anyone but yourself -- you won't succeed, and you will just make yourself miserable trying. (I am definitely a people pleaser and "goodie-goodie" who has always tried to do the right thing.)

4. Move away from ALL family as soon as you turn 18. (This is in conjunction with #3 above.)

5. Take much better care of your teeth.

Re: If You Could Go Back And Give Your Future Self Some Advice, What Would It Be?
So far the central theme seems to be:

Don't spend too much energy/time on trying to conform to society or others' views, spend that time and energy on figuring out yourself and building a secure future. Including taking care of your health/teeth.

+

Invest in something that will take off.

Remember to remember.
Leave clues to remember what's happening. (is it berenstein or berenstain?)
Prep more people for transition.
Cut losses earlier.

1. Forget Mary Ann. She is nothing but a psycho bitch and pussy ain't worth the hell you'll go through.
2. Don't take relationships seriously. You can't know what or if they are thinking so enjoy the pussy but keep your heart to yourself.

Not to listen to the health "professionals" that will tell me there is no such thing as Lyme disease in Florida. Oh and to save more money and stop eating gluten and for the love of all things holy stop drinking soda. And I would tell myself to get the heck out of our state lol
Oh and to avoid becoming friends with a couple who treated us horribly. Would have been great to avoid that 10yr friendship.

Save money regularly, and look after your teeth. Sigh. But basically, I second the poster earlier: 'Planet Earth? DON'T GO THERE!' The people are all insane.

NOTE TO MY Future Self Some Advice,

1. DO NOT GET MARRIED .. WAIT ONE YEAR... This man was a total NARCISIS. He died 3 years ago

2. DO NOT GET MARRIED... to husband #2 - HE died.. and the ESTATE ruined my financial life.. with kids I did not raise ..... they sued me for everything.... and took what they wanted.... The police and Judge did nothing. He died 5 years ago

3. DO NOT GET MARRIED.... to husband #3 can not write why here.

Focus on my own life.. my own career.... and STOP being a slave to other people's dreams.. Stop the BS of FAMILY TIES quickly... move on.




BOTTOM LINE NOTE TO MAYSLE....

Marriage is a form of slavery. It complicates everything.


mine would be to avoid my ex husband at all cost, stick with yoga, and dont go to school for something just because it seems like a financially sensible decision.

How about you?

Never stay at a job you hate, HOPING it will get better.

It never does.

Unless you will be homeless as a result of quitting, QUIT now before you lose your mind.

I don't think I would interfere. Even things like taking better care of ones health and teeth, or avoiding specific people while seeming like sound advice can change the path you are on in ways that could put one in a worse position.

Investing money, same thing.

For example, you can now buy a boat or vehicle you always dreamed of, but maybe you are in an accident, and paralyzed.

Maybe you go to college for a specific degree, and meet someone who turns out to be crazy.

Etc...
