Specific Lessons I've Learned This Year

1. We all have our weaknesses when it comes to social interactions, and we all have our limits as well when dealing with people with different personalities and characteristics. 

2. We all have to deal with stress at some point as well as drama. People always say that you can’t avoid drama and while that may be true, you still have a choice as to whether or not you want to continue getting involved with that. 

3. Always maintain some sense of self-awareness. Be aware of how you act in each and every environment you’re in; be aware of how you act and treat other people. Be aware of the choices you make consciously or subconsciously, and do the best you can to own up to your mistakes.
 
4. Just do the best you can and treat yourself kindly; no one’s expecting you to get things right all the time. No one is ever perfect and everybody makes mistakes; it’s what makes you human. 

5. It’s okay to say no and make time for yourself. However, it's not okay to project your insecurities onto others and expect them to do everything you want.

6. Be the kind of change you want to see in everyone else. It's second nature for some people to be negative and you can't blame them or make them change their outlook on life. 

7. Learn to respect people's differences in opinions or in personality. There's only one you on this earth and nobody else is going to be like you; there's no way for anybody to conform to your liking.

8. Forgiveness is what saves a relationship of any sort. If you can't forgive someone who's done you wrong, then you won't be better off later down the line. And if someone else is able to forgive you for any wrongdoings you may have caused, use that to build yourself back up as best as you can. Second chances can sometimes be hard to find these days, so it's always best to appreciate it whenever it comes your way. 

9. When people criticize you, do the best you can to learn from it despite how it makes you feel. If you continue to let that criticism effect you negatively, you won't have much of a leg to stand on- there's usually always a reason why people criticize you anyways.
