Let’s face it, it’s easy to avoid listening to people tell you that you are wrong all the time, especially when you are going through your teens. As you mature into an adult, you slowly begin to realize that you may not have been right all the time. No matter who it was, you can appreciate their past advice and look back at all the lessons you've learned in your past two decades.

• You would have a lot more money if you didn’t pay the extra $1.95 for guacamole every time you went to Chipotle.
• Your mom and dad might have been right about that one guy in high school that you were head over heels for. And that going back to him repeatedly probably also was not a good idea.
• If you had applied yourself, you might have gotten better grades.
• There are lots of teachers and professors whose “meaningless” classes actually really paid off when you got to college.
• Turns out you didn’t “literally die” because you didn’t get to go to that one rap concert on a Thursday night when you were 16.
• All those times your best friend told you a guy was bad news and you didn’t believe her until afterwards. Every single time.
• You probably should’ve never downloaded Tinder.
• Online shopping is a REAL addiction.
• Those friends your parents warned you about being trouble were actually trouble. **shocker**
• Always volunteering to drive places is cool until you had to start paying for your own gas.
• Getting out of your comfort zone is actually good for you.
• Some friends come and go, but if you have one that’s there through thick and thin, then you don’t need anyone else.
• Cherish all the time spent with your grandparents, because you mean the world to them, and they should to you as well.
• You might never remember the classes you sat through, but you will always remember those crazy nights with your friends.
• Having a job might not be fun, but it will teach you endless amounts of lessons that will help you in life.
• Volunteering may be time-consuming and viewed as a requirement, but it is one of the most fulfilling things you can do.
• Boys used to all seem "the same," but by the time college comes around, boys finally mature into men.
• You don’t actually need six different kinds of white tank tops and eight different styles of dark-wash jeans.
• Snapchatting every moment with your friends might seem cool, but putting the phone down and actually spending quality time with them is much better.
• If you aren't happy with the way your life is going, change it. You only live once (not to directly quote Drake or anything).
