Lessons from 20s to bring to 30s:

Let go of perfection, Embrace the process; Forcing it does not work but, Give your best and put your heart and head to it, If it's meant to happen it will happen; Ups and downs are natural, There is always light at the end of tunnel, Take time to grieve and come out with boldness and strength; Stop doubting yourself and your work, Never let anyone underestimate you or take you for granted; Be generous but have boundaries, Take counsel but do not let another person to hold the reins of your life; Love is much bigger than relationships, Be kind to people without being judgmental; Be okay to let go many times to heal, Letting go does not exhibit weakness, but needs courage; Emotional maturity makes a difference, Forgive, forget and learn from your mistakes; Running away from your emotions does not help, Fall seven times rise up eight; Beauty is abundant but connection is unique, Don't settle for shallow, but create deeper bonds with people. - Publo and PJay
