Stuff doesn’t just go away, and getting it done quickly removes piles of stuff later.

Spend more time with your parents and grandparents. It's easy to overlook how quickly they're growing older while we're busy with our own lives. One day, their absence will hit harder than you can imagine. Cherish the moments you have with them now, before it's too late.

“Forget Your Bad Friends”: 50 Examples Of Adult Advice People Wish They’d Heard Earlier A piece of adult advice I wish I'd known sooner is that it's okay to say "no" without feeling guilty. Setting boundaries is crucial for maintaining your mental and emotional well-being, and it's not selfish to prioritize your needs. Learning that you don't have to explain or justify your reasons for declining something can be incredibly freeing and helps you focus on what truly matters to you.

Not if you have ASD. I've got a psych degree and studied a lot about social behaviour and interactions. Could I put any of it in place? In a short, surface level interaction yes but I was just acting normal. Once I've got past the initial interaction it all falls apart. Knowing when to speak in turn and reacting to body language and facial expressions is a key part of communication for humans. People with ASD and also ADHD don't do too good with these skills no matter how well taught to act otherwise.

You start by watching people you admire and see what they do. Then you roleplay it in your head to see what adjustments may be needed. To stay grounded, you should also roleplay it as someone you dislike. To see how it sounds when you didnt pre-build it with respect and admiration. Practice is best with eighter young or old people, because they dont hold back and they are honest if you ask questions.

This is such a valuable outlook on life when taken seriously. I grew up in a harsh environment where "disrespect" was confronted regularly with extreme aggression which led to serious consequences like death and/or jail time.. which ruins lives on both sides of the situation. Then I had an epiphany, that led me to this exact conclusion. If you don't like me for whatever reason, that's completely YOUR business and really shouldn't affect anything I do personally. I'm already in my 40's, still surviving, still existing and I never knew you felt that way and it never affected my life at all, so now that you made your feelings known, what changed about my life just now when learning this new information??

“Forget Your Bad Friends”: 50 Examples Of Adult Advice People Wish They’d Heard Earlier Everyone's faking it. Yes, even that super-confident, capable person you know from work/school/your friendship circle. So don't feel scared if you are too.

The more you do the things you're scared of the more naturally they'll eventually come to you. That's how anyone and everyone builds competence in anything. So don't make excuses for yourself. Just get on with it.

Be OK with being bad at things. Everyone's bad at the start. The real measure of competence is how willing you are to stick things out and slowly improve over time. Obviously, this requires a measure of common sense - if you really hate something, don't force the issue. But the likelihood is you're going to suck at your new hobby, profession, sport, exercise, musical instrument, language, or whatever endeavor you're hoping to pursue. And that's more than just 'OK', it's natural.

Avoid debt as much as possible. Cars and houses are notable exceptions. Pay any small debt as quickly as you can. Being financially solvent makes many other things in life easier. Might add that having credit available can be a literal or virtual lifesaver. I got a credit card early, managed it carefully, and when I was fairly newly married I had the engine fail on our vehicle a couple days away from home. I had the credit to pay for the repairs and get home. Without it I'm not sure what I would have done. A longer delay trying to work something out likely would have cost both of us our jobs. Yes, it sucks paying the interest on it, but unless you are in a financial position where you can just drop a month's pay to fix something you need that credit.

If you are going to use the same tissue to clean your eyeglasses and blow your nose, you should clean your glasses first.
