What I learnt from 2016....

People have been stating 2016 as one of the worst years ever and I'm not denying that some of what happened has been pretty shitty but for me personally it wasn't all bad. 

I spent the first 9 months of the year living and travelling a continent I had always wanted to go to, making some amazing new friends along the way and slowly but surely figuring out what I want to do with my life. 
It wasn't all easy, there has been a few arseholes and learning curves in the way - but it's all experience. 

  • Happiness comes from within - you could be in the most amazing beautiful place, with some amazing people but if you aren't happy about something you'll still be yearning for something else.
  • Give me adventures over materialistic goods any day - one of the reasons some people say I am hard to please - share secrets, teach me things, show me your'e a good person - I'm not impressed by fancy things. 
  • Be low key - there is nothing achievable or fun about being on the scene or being that person seen at a club every weekend that everyone knows of, having a big following on social media but no one to talk to in real life. A private life is a happy life. 
  • Keep moving forward - don't look back or keep making the same mistakes expecting different results - some people will never change. 
  • Be you - accept it and be happy within yourself. Having work done doesn't make you a bad person but it don't make you a better person either. 
  • Stop worrying & have faith - I have drove myself sick this year worrying about minor things - and every time things have worked out OK and fallen into place in the end. What's meant to be will be. 
  • Your blessings will always outnumber your problems.
  • Be Nice and Work Hard!
