18 lessons I learnt at 18; a thread by me for me
1. Let go and let God.

(I got this phrase from a random comprehension text but it turned out to be so useful in life)
2. Don& #39;t be afraid to live in the moment. Ignore that little nagging voice in your head that keeps reminding you of the uncertain future.
3. Appreciate the people around you who loves you unconditionally, as annoying as you may be. You& #39;re a very difficult person to love that not just anyone can handle.
4. Go to impromptu trips. They& #39;re the best.
5. Jangan berkira. Tangan yang menghulur lebih baik daripada yang menerima. Be it money or knowledge, just give. Plus. you never know when its your turn who needs help instead.
6. Contrary to popular belief, you DON& #39;T have to be happy all the time. Acknowledge your feelings, it& #39;s definitely ok to be sad.
7. Just because you heard a negative rumour about someone, it doesn& #39;t necessarily mean that person is bad. Remember that we& #39;re all human and we, too have our own toxic traits. Get to know that person yourself, they might be a really great friend for you.
8. There is a reason why people trust you and your capabilities. Them saying "I know you can do this" isn& #39;t a lie. Stop dragging yourself down while people are trying to push you up. (dragging yourself down and being down to earth are two different things)
9. You don& #39;t always have to be the best or at the top. The only thing that matters is you did all you could do, and that& #39;s enough.
10. No matter how ideal another person& #39;s life seems, you never actually know what they choose to not tell other people. It& #39;s unfair to compare your life that you know 100% of, to someone else& #39;s that you only know 30% of.
11. Hope for the best yet at the same time expect for the worst. The lower the expectations, the less pressure you& #39;ll put on yourself. You& #39;ll also be happier/less disappointed when you get the actual results.
12. Learn from your opponent. Being egoistical/proud won& #39;t get you anywhere in life.
13. The more you get to know about a person and learn the little things about them, the more you love them.
14. Attitude > Face. It& #39;s so important for you to remember that one of the first things Rasulullah SAW fixed was the akhlak of people. That& #39;s just how important it is. Be nice and say nice things, always.
15. It takes courage to let go of people. As much as you love a friend, give them the freedom of choosing who they want to be friends with. If you truly love them, you& #39;ll be happy as long as they are happy (even if it means that it& #39;s with someone else and not you).
16. Don& #39;t be greedy and want everything. Although making a decision is hard, learn to make tough decisions and be content with it. (bcs u made that decision so it& #39;s no use regretting it)
17. Surround yourself with good people. Avoid being with people who makes you question you self-worth and your place in their life. Instead, be with friends who bring out the best sides of you and who constantly help (not force) you to be better.
18. You& #39;re still young and you will most definitely make mistakes in the future. Don& #39;t expect your life to be perfectly smooth-sailing all the freaking time. Failing is also a part of life. Life moves on so there& #39;s no use wallowing in your little tub of sadness for too long.
19. It& #39;s totally normal to feel like you didn& #39;t do your best, because in reality you& #39;ll obviously have your ups and downs. Keep moving on with a positive mind, believing that things will get better. Rest if you have to, but keep moving. You& #39;ll get there someday.
20. You’re somehow a person who just seems to like putting others before your own self. It’s okay to do that but always take some time to make sure that you also balance it out by doing things for yourself too. Take care of yourself, mas.
21. Not everyone is out to get you. You also don’t have an obligation to satisfy every single person around you. You do you, mas.
