8 Must-Tell Things to Someone Turning 18

1.       Pursue a Career That You Will Love

It is true when they say that find a job that you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life. Most path you chose in you teenage years will have a great impact in your life in the coming years. For instance, choices like college course, will decide what you are going to do in the next 40 years of your life.

2. It’s Not Just About Being a Prom Queen

Remember that the race is not just about being popular in your high school years. What really matters is the person that you will become. It’s not only being successful in your chosen path but getting through all the life challenges and providing value and good effect to other people.  

3. You Can Say NO

Getting into something that you are not ready or does not fit in to your moral values and beliefs is not cool. You can always walk away, it’s your body, it’s your decision, it’s your life. Don’t get into peer pressure.

      4. Love your family

Honor them, love them, and respect them. You can go anywhere, travel around the world, but there will be no place like home. You may hate your siblings sometimes but in times of troubles, family are the first people who will run by your side and will love you without condition.

5. Believe

People may have different religions but in life, there should be something or someone to believe in…a  spiritual relationship and something to fear of, a rule to guide you on how you relate to other people.

6. Take Responsibility

Being someone with legal age is not a privilege, it’s a responsibility. You are now responsible to all your actions.  

 7. Education is the only thing that nobody can steal from you.

“Study well.” Is not just a cliché, it’s real.  If you are a genius like Steve Jobs or Bill Gates or a rock star, then you may not require a diploma to succeed.  These are exception to the rule. But if you are in a rule, then education is something to be taken seriously.

8. Enjoy Your Youth

Eat, pray, love…not just the movie, but also play, dance, sing, laugh, travel, and all of the other action words to do while you are young.
