Things I Wish I Knew When I Was Younger

  1. Make your move before you are ready.
  2. “Done” is better than “Perfect”.

  4. Care less about what other people think.
  5. Ideas are worthless without execution.
  6. Having great ideas doesn’t make you great.

    Everyone is unsure until they do the work.

  9. Set goals, they’ll give you direction.
    But, you still have to walk the way.

  20. Be comfortable in your own skin.
    Know where you are going.
    Have fun while going there.
