I would tell myself, don't be afraid! Travel, meet, take risks, speak. You are young but the world is not going to end because of a mistake, fall and get up, not everything should be perfect, not everyone should like you, be what you want to be. Time passes and there is only one life, one opportunity. Lives! đŸ’ȘđŸ»

Don't be afraid to make mistakes. To be honest, in the beginning, I was very afraid to start because I didn't want to make mistakes or fail. And I lost some time. But there is nothing bad in making mistakes, they only make you more experienced

Don't stick with something that does not make you feel good. There are always a hundred different opportunities waiting. Plans will change, learn to enjoy the ride.

whenever you have a good feeling about starting something, pursue it even though you don't know what you're doing yet, don't quit just because you're afraid of what others might say or think 😅
Grace Hur
Practice a mindset of abundance! There are so many more great opportunities and people to meet.

Don't be afraid of trying new things out and putting yourself out there. This is the most effective way for me to learn new things and to be productive.
