If you’re reading this, here’s what we would tell our younger selves

We asked our Instagram community to share what they would tell their younger selves. Here are their responses:

Everything will work out

Comparison is the thief of happiness

Don’t be afraid to take chances

Don’t sweat the small stuff

Allow yourself room to feel regret but don’t let it overwhelm you

Don’t be afraid to ask for help! You are NOT alone

Rest is productive too

Savor every moment living with your best friends

Write things down!

Enjoy the present

Be patient with yourself

The sun will still rise

You career and academics are not everything; put energy into things & people you love

College is such a special time in your life, cherish every moment

Find little things that bring you joy in every day

Everything will work out! Try to slow down and enjoy the moment more

As always, we’re here for you. Have a great week, Wildcats.
