12 Things I'd tell my 16 year old self

I've been reading a book called 'Dear Me: A letter to my 16 year old self'. It is filled with celebrities letters, some funny others very heartfelt and emotional. The book inspired me to create my own little list. Enjoy! x

1. Don't spend so much time worrying what people think about you. Everyone has their opinions, you will never please everyone. Life is too short.

2. Don't waste time on people who don't make the effort with you. It will only result in you getting hurt and disappointed.

3. Stand up for yourself at work and leave for somewhere that appreciates you.

4. Stop trying to be up to date and a follower, do your own thing and be you!

5. You're not stupid. You just have more particular strengths then others.

6. Help your mum out more, she needs it!

7. Do more singing!

8. Stop being a people pleaser, be a little selfish.

9. You don't have to be the loudest, coolest person in the room. Somebody is noticing you!

10. Don't take advantage of the time you have with your sister, one day it won't be so easy to spend so much time together!

11. Be brave. Stop dismissing opportunities because you don't think you're good enough. Go for it and you could be surprised.

12. Don't ever let anyone hold you back.


What would you tell your 16 year old self? I'd love to know!
