What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever received?

I wrote about this recently

But here it is again.

---

There are people who make things happen
And people things happen to
If you don’t take control of what happens
Then it will just happen to you.

If you don’t want to be a victim
Don’t just let things happen to you
You have to make some choices
And make things happen for you.

If you don’t take charge of what happens
Then good things won’t happen for you.
If you don’t take control of your own life
Then other people will.

It’s easier to give advice

Than follow it at times

I constantly need to hear this

But following it is hard.
