So advice later in life that I learned from my mother that I wish other people knew earlier in life.

Ok…

Family is who you choose. Relatives share DNA.

From the very moment you start working your first job, put 5 to 10% of every paycheck into a 401K and or IRA account. Start this as early as possible so that you might stand a chance of retiring one day. Do NOT depend on social security or anyone else to care for you when you are old. Sure wish my parents had engrained this idea into my head ....instead I'm starting late and will pay dearly for the missed years of contributions.

Find a way to work a small amount of exercise into your daily routine. Walk places instead of driving, do some jumping jacks in the morning or before bed, something simple that you can get yourself to do without much stress or planning. If you do it consistently, even 10-20 minutes of exercise a day can make a big difference in the long run.

If you're not happy with what you're doing or what you have, make at least a rough plan on the steps how you will change it so that you'll like your life more in the future.

By doing so you realize that there is a way out of the missery and it gets easier to get out of it.

Everyone can teach you something!

That your actions, if not harmful, shouldn't be based on societal approval.

Become involved in your community. It’s hard to hate people that differ from you if you know them.

It's good learning from your own mistakes, but even better if you can learn from other peoples mistakes

Also, there's great benefit if confirming your assumptions are correct about things - so many times we build a poisoned narrative in our minds or decide based on faulty ideas

Not cleaning your belly button can cause it to fall off

Not advices but these are somethings that I inferred from their behaviour.

1. Treat people of every religion equally.
2. Trans people are people just like us.
3. Empathy over sympathy.
4. If your sibling is selfish you be the better person and not be selfish.

Things I wish someone told me when I was a kid:

1. Be kind to people and animals(I was a humongous jerk when I was a kid).
2. Brush twice a day.

You won't believe how many people don't know enough to not consume large amounts of calcium if stones run in their family.

Getting older is like getting to know yourself.

That everyone is equal.

If you believe everyone is human equally:

If you had the same genetics and upbringing as that "bad hombre" , you'd make the same choices.
