What’s the best advice you’d give to someone younger than you?

Hey…
I hope all of you are doing well…!
Well,
To be honest I think I’m not old enough to advice someone on relationships and life yet—
But,
If I had to advice someone it would be to complete their educational process once like schooling, college both undergrad and postgrad and if you want to peruse anything after that do it before getting into a job,
Because it will be tricky to make time from your regular schedule while you’re working 9 to 5 job which can get extended a few hours and cause you to lag behind…!
Timely completing education and setting your eyes on a goal that seems a good fit would be one of the advice,
And,
I’d recommend a career counselor if they come to me for what path to choose because I’m not a professional nor am I in a place to advice someone what they should do…!
Apart from education,
There will be many who will ask you for money—
Beg you for it,
And you will give them the money;
..
No matter how much the sum is,
And,
You will fall into the process of begging from them your money that you lend to them in need…!
This is real because these sort of things happens to us,
The best of us and because of our nature people ask and then get angry on us for asking our money back from them…!
If you are not that sort of person who speaks ill of someone you have a slim chance of getting it back,
But,
If you talk about it in the market or the people who both of you deal with on the daily,
You can talk about them that how they aren’t giving your money back and if more than a few people talk about it to them,
They will come to you and give you your money back angrily and ask later what was the need for talking,
And you know the reason why you talked about it to others,
Because you were tired of hearing the same thing each day…!
This thing comes in as a lesson,
You found the reason why no one lent them money and you became the person who would never give them spare change after facing it all…!
And,
If the amount is small,
You can,
If you can let it go;
Don’t let it go as something that was given out of pity—
But,
Think of it as a way of giving back to the world or think of it as giving out as sadqa…!
Either way,
You got to know the nature of that person in that amount…!
And if it was something that you can endure—
That money came in as a lesson and taught you at the right time what sort of the person that was…!
So,
Completing your education as much as you can,
And,
People who owe you money becoming a life lesson…!
Song of the day is here
You already know Arjan Dhillon is someone who I really love and respect…!
This song is about what youth is all about,
How youth and its aspects hits all of us and how it differs from people…!
Like when youth hits a lover he does everything he can to be with someone they love;
When it hits a fighter it becomes a sword that they use to attack their enemy,
When it hits a writer a beautiful story comes to our eyes…!
Arjan beautifully pens how youth differs when it hits us…!
Cheers to the youth that is on us 🥂
Love Waakiye 🤍🤍
