ADVICE PART 2 ELECTRIC BOOGALO
Under no circumstances admit you fucked up in a creative situation. If you're preforming don't go "oops I ment to do that instead". If you're showing someone something you made don't say "I hate this part" I'm still learning this
Plan your projects. Make an outline. Please for the love of god. You'll be more likely to finish it and it'll be better

Always take the empathetic approach
Be kind to people who don't deserve it* (Within reason. Don't be nice to a rapist)

Suffering is not a fucking competition
Learn basic home/car/whatever maintenance
Don't wait for motivation to come. Unless you genuinely can't do something. Know when to take a break
People always say to act like you're talking to your younger self when you're self-talking. This doesn't work for some people. Imagine you're talking to your pet
Find a way to exercise that you enjoy
