- Stay away from comfort, it’s the enemy disguised as a soft, warm blanket on a Saturday morning.
- Stay away from most advice, people often give you advice limited to the extent of their experiences.
- Stay away from liars, they’re often the ones that talk the most and sound the most convincing.
- Stay away from those that make fun of you. They don’t deserve your presence or time.
- Stay away from family members that bring you down or consistently criticize you. Toxic people are toxic.
- Stay away from questioning new opportunities. When you are younger, always say yes. New experiences are knowledge.
- Stay away from making close friends very easily. You are the average of your five closest friends.
- Stay away from purely chasing money. Learn to purely love first, then figure out the finer details on monetization after.
- Stay away from those who lack hardship or trauma. Coping mechanisms make for beautiful perspectives and infinite wisdom.
- Stay away from relationships for the sake of relationships. Learn to make meaningful sense of yourself first. The rest follows organically.
