What is a good piece of advice from your parents or that you’ve learned that others may not know or that you wish you were told as a child/teen?

If you're not happy with what you're doing or what you have, make at least a rough plan on the steps how you will change it so that you'll like your life more in the future.

By doing so you realize that there is a way out of the missery and it gets easier to get out of it.

Find a way to work a small amount of exercise into your daily routine. Walk places instead of driving, do some jumping jacks in the morning or before bed, something simple that you can get yourself to do without much stress or planning. If you do it consistently, even 10-20 minutes of exercise a day can make a big difference in the long run.

Become involved in your community. It’s hard to hate people that differ from you if you know them.

Everyone can teach you something!

That your actions, if not harmful, shouldn't be based on societal approval.

You won't believe how many people don't know enough to not consume large amounts of calcium if stones run in their family.
