Not SyncedIf I could meet me when I was 16,
-
Not SyncedI think the first thing that I would say
-
Not Syncedis that it is so tempting to do something
-
Not Syncedfor somebody to get them to like you.
-
Not SyncedDon't.
-
Not SyncedReally be mindful that you are so wise right now
-
Not Syncedbecause of all the things you don't know.
-
Not SyncedSo just, really before somebody
-
Not Syncedasks you to do something,
-
Not Syncedreally take time to think about
-
Not Syncedwhether or not it's going to be good for you,
-
Not Syncedthat if, after you do it,
-
Not Syncedyou're going to go,
-
Not Synced"Oh, I'm so glad I did that!
-
Not SyncedThat was so good for me,
-
Not Syncedthat was so wonderful."
-
Not SyncedYou know, whether that's, whatever it is,
-
Not Syncedwhether it's eating something,
-
Not Synceddrinking something,
-
Not Syncedbeing with somebody,
-
Not Syncedtaking a job,
-
Not Syncedwhatever it is,
-
Not Syncedjust really check into the wisdom
-
Not Syncedthat you already have
-
Not Syncedto see how you're going to feel after you to do it.
-
Not SyncedThat's the first thing.
-
Not SyncedAnd the second thing,
-
Not SyncedI think there's loads,
-
Not Syncedbut the second thing is jealousy.
-
Not SyncedJealousy is a wonderful engine.
-
Not SyncedWhen you have it,
-
Not Syncedreally, really take it in
-
Not Syncedand ask yourself,
-
Not Synced"Ooh, I'm really jealous of so-and-so.
-
Not SyncedWhat is it I'm jealous about?
-
Not SyncedWhat is it that they have that I want?"
-
Not SyncedAnd then trust that you already have it
-
Not Syncedand act as if you do,
-
Not Syncedand if you don't,
-
Not Syncedif you really feel like,
-
Not Synced"Ooh, I don't have that thing or that attribute,"
-
Not Syncedthen trust that somewhere you have some quality
-
Not Syncedthat resembles that and let it grow on you.
