Striking a balance between spending and saving is vital for a fulfilling life, as your future self will appreciate the decision while ensuring you don't sacrifice experiences for money. 

2. Don’t stop dating (unless you’re not dating!)

Whether single or in a relationship, remember to prioritize dating and quality time together, as it contributes to a fulfilling life and fosters a stronger connection. 

3. Wear sunscreen on your face daily, even if it’s not sunny!

Trust me, your future self will express gratitude for a youthful, flawless complexion devoid of wrinkles and sunspots, as prioritizing skincare, including the daily use of sunscreen, ensures a fresher and more radiant appearance regardless of age. 

4. Do what you want, and don’t let the long timeframes put you off

Don't let the perception of time hinder you from pursuing your goals and aspirations because, in reality, whether you take action or not, life will continue to pass by, so seize the opportunities and make the most of the journey. 

5. Change jobs if you’re unhappy

Don't waste time in a dead-end job or an undesired career - make the change now and be grateful in the future. 

6. Look after your body

Cliché as it may be, prioritizing self-care is paramount, as it ensures a long, happy, and healthy life by engaging in regular exercise, maintaining a nutritious diet, staying hydrated, and getting sufficient sleep, all of which will be appreciated by your future self. 

7. Leave a bad relationship

Avoid wasting years in an unhappy relationship by addressing doubts, making decisions aligned with your true desires, and not letting your current partner hinder you from finding your life partner. 

8. Spend time with friends and family, even if you don’t always want to
