1. Don't Get Offended By The Littlest thing That Someone Says To You

As millennials, living in a world full of subtweeting and Facebook, it is easy to feel hurt when someone says some not so nice things to us. We have to have a tough skin, the world that we live in is even more brutal then the generations before us so it is important that we don;t let things get to us.

2. Things Aren't Going to Be Handed To You

In todays generation, you have to work extra hard just to stand out. Things have become so competitive now that you will get lost in the shuffle if you aren't involved in a million extra curricular activities.

3. You Have To Work For The Things You Want

Working hard for the things you want makes the reward that much sweeter.

4. Learn To Be Independent

This is one of the best things you can do for yourself. There will be times when there is no one around to help you and you have to do things alone. Its better to be independent enough to handle it than look like a fool otherwise.

5. Treat Others How You Want To Be Treated

The golden rule, enough said.

6. Respect Others Opinions

Social media makes it very hard because everyones opinions are right there online. Its much easier to just let it go and accept that everyone has their own opinion than stress yourself out about it.

7. Be Willing To Listen To The Other Side Of the Story

You never know when someone will bring up an idea that you have never even considered before. Plus, if you listen to other people they are going to listen to you.

8. You Have To Work At Relationships

Social media definitely doesn't make anything any easier, but relationships aren't just magically going to happen. It takes time and lots of effort to make a relationship last.

9. Always Be Kind

this goes along with the golden rule. You never know what someone is going through and you might just make their day by showing a simple act of kindness.

10. Be Humble

Work hard, stay humble. You will go far in life with this motto.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
