Try not to use your credit card if you know you can’t pay it off

had to learn this shyt the hard way recently
But if you can pay it off get a cash back card. Pay the statement balance (not the card balance) in full each month.

This way you never pay interest on your card. In fact, the card pays you.

American Express has been paying me for 20 years.

Sometimes you have to make decisions that are best for you in your life instead of listening to what other people want or think you should do.

Anybody can tell you what they want or think you should do, but they don't always have to deal with the consequences or repercussions of those actions.

This. Only you have to deal with the consequences. The people with all the advice get real quiet when shyt hits the fan. Always.

Perception is everything.

Loving and learning yourself will help you find true love. Whether it's in the form of a spouse or being fulfilled within your self. You have to love you before you can learn how to love anyone else.

You can't expect other people to make you happy. Blaming other people for things that are wrong in your life will never fix your problems.

Step back and look at the dynamics of your individual relationships. If you have someone in your life that's constantly complaining about things that are messed up, but when it's your turn they don't listen, you might want to reevaluate that relationship.

Also, if you give them advice and they never follow it or apply it, they don't want the situation to change. All they want to do is complain. You might want to reevaluate that relationship too.

  1. Embellish on your resume
  2. Most people really are THAT stupid
  3. Cant save everybody, focus on your life and count your blessings knowing that you're smart enough to know better than most.
  4. Alot of people will hate you for just existing. you dont even have to directly interact with'em.
  5. You dont earn a person's respect. You earn their admiration.
  6. Religion has it's purpose for those who need it to anchor them. Don't knock it. we all cope differently
  7. You will always have the minority opinion when thinking for self (ties back to number 2)
  8. Most animals are far more self aware and intelligent than you think.
  9. Be extremely cautious of what you allow into your subconscious. The brain picks up more shyt passively than you realize and shyt will either come back to haunt or help you.

your oldest friends will do you the dirtiest/grimiest
This sounds so dumb but one of my closest friends doubting me on p*ssy because I didn’t have nudes hurt my feelings lmaooo. This nikka knew me when I was starving in highschool. I’m so honest with him. I even share all my Ls in general.

Try not to think negative thoughts, your brain is a computer that saves everything to call back on at a later time. If that bank is positive you'll never be down.


Never stop learning, the worst thing school did was try and give us bad learning habits intentionally

Find a purpose and protect it by cutting anything that gets in the way of that purpose out.

If a woman is always telling you her problems, everything going wrong in her life, always with the negative energy ... bounce.
This is a sleeeeper.

don’t get caught up trying to be a savior brehs trust me I’ve been there. You think it makes you a good person but it takes away from the focus on yourself.

Social Media has REALLY exposed this with millions of people.
