What advice would you give to a girl turning 14 in 3 months? Basically things you wish you knew while you were 14.

Edit: I'm going into 11th or 12th grade by September. Due to my Country's education system. Any advice for that would be appreciated too. Thanks

Thank you all for the advice 😊

Take a pen. Draw a line of 80cm. That's your life. Draw a tick at 14cm. That's where you are.

Life is long.Take your time, don't rush it. It's a marathon, not a sprint.

I won't tell the same thing to a 20 year old, but teens tend to think that life last just a few year and want to rush anything by their 20 🙂
