Below are the “3 Things She Wishes She Knew in her 20s”:

-No one is you, and that is your power!

There is no one on this earth quite like you. You should embrace your uniqueness because that is your secret power. I have learned over the years that you should never compare yourself to others, worry about what others think, and always follow your own path. That is the secret to success and happiness!

-Surround yourself with like-minded and motivated individuals.

You become a product of your environment, so it’s important to surround yourself with people that inspire you and subscribe to the same work ethic and moral code that you embrace.

-Listen to your parents and elders.

The older people in your life will often offer you advice. It is wise for you to listen despite the fact that you think they are so different than you, and that there is no way that they ‘get it.’ Guess what, they do! If you are lucky enough to have great role models, whether it be your parents, a boss, a coach, or whoever, please remember to listen carefully to what they have to say and trust that they may know more than you do. They have a lifetime of experiences, life lessons and wisdom under their belt, so, listen to them carefully (because one day you will be someone’s elder).
