Supongo que a todos nos ha pasado que en su momento necesitamos mucha guía. Algunos la tuvimos y otros tal vez no. Pero, si pudiéramos ayudarnos a nuestro yo de joven, seguro que nos ahorraríamos muchos dolores de cabeza.
Por desgracia, así es como llegamos a la vida adulta, aprendiendo de nuestros errores del pasado. Y eso está bien, cuando somos niños y estamos aprendiendo a caminar nos caemos y nos lastimamos, hasta que poco a poco nos hacemos fuertes y podemos correr con seguridad. Por eso, no debemos renegar de nuestros errores del pasado, pues, ellos nos convirtieron en lo que somos hoy.
Ahora bien, tomando en cuenta la pregunta que presenta esta iniciativa de la comunidad @ladiesofhive: ¿Qué ideas o recomendaciones le daría a mi yo de joven? , le diría que aprenda desde joven esas cualidades que por naturaleza quizás no tiene, podríamos hablar de la paciencia, la bondad, la compasión y muchas otras.
Yo era el tipo de adolescente indiferente a los problemas de los demás, no me importaba si otros estaban sufriendo, y mi sufrimiento no lo compartía con nadie. Debido a esto, cualidades como la empatía y la compasión eran prácticamente inexistentes en mí. Hoy por hoy me alegra decir que soy una persona diferente, pero me hubiese gustado ser así desde joven y que no se me hiciera tan difícil ya de adulta.
También me diría que escuche con más atención los consejos, ¡vaya que me hubiese ahorrado muchos problemas si tan solo hubiese escuchado los consejos y sido obediente! La terquedad es normal en la adolescencia y pocos son los que aprenden por las buenas, pero cuando uno crece es que entiende que, si hubiésemos puesto en práctica ciertos consejos bien intencionados que nos dieron, tal vez nos hubiese ido mejor en gran parte de nuestra vida.
Respondiendo a la segunda pregunta: ¿Cuál ha sido uno de mis mayores logros a lo largo de mi vida? Sin duda, el momento cuando empecé a tomar conciencia de las consecuencias de mis decisiones. Cuando llegas a ese punto, recuperas el control de tu vida, ahí es cuando antes de tomar una decisión ya entiendes si terminará bien o mal, y por supuesto, tomas la mejor decisión. Así tal vez vaya en contra de tus gustos y deseos. Eso es madurar, comprender que no todo lo que queremos hacer nos hará bien, y que si no nos hará bien, realmente no es algo que queremos en nuestras vidas.
Igual siempre habrá momentos en los que nos sintamos desconcertados y perdidos, pero es fácil recuperar el norte. Porque ya aprendiste quienes son tus amigos incondicionales, ya escuchas los consejos y piensas en cómo afectará a tu vida presente y futura cada paso que des.
Estoy muy feliz de haber participado en esta iniciativa. Gracias por la oportunidad.

I guess we've all had a time when we needed a lot of guidance. Some of us had it and some of us may not. But, if we could help our younger selves, it would certainly save us a lot of headaches.
Unfortunately, that's how we get to adulthood, learning from our past mistakes. And that's okay, when we are children and we are learning to walk we fall and get hurt, until little by little we become strong and can run safely. Therefore, we should not deny our past mistakes, because they made us what we are today.
Now, taking into account the question presented by this initiative of the @ladiesofhive community: What ideas or recommendations would I give to my younger self, I would tell him to learn from a young age those qualities that by nature he may not have, we could talk about patience, kindness, compassion and many others.
I was the kind of teenager who was indifferent to the problems of others, I didn't care if others were suffering, and my suffering I didn't share with anyone. Because of this, qualities like empathy and compassion were practically non-existent in me. Today I am happy to say that I am a different person, but I wish I had been like that when I was young and that it was not so difficult for me as an adult.
I would also tell myself to listen more carefully to advice, I could have saved myself a lot of trouble if I had just listened to advice and been obedient! Stubbornness is normal in adolescence and few are those who learn the hard way, but when we grow up we understand that, if we had put into practice certain well-intentioned advice we were given, perhaps we would have done better in most of our lives.
Answering the second question: What has been one of my greatest achievements throughout my life? Without a doubt, the moment when I started to become aware of the consequences of my decisions. When you reach that point, you regain control of your life, that's when before you make a decision you understand whether it will end well or badly, and of course, you make the best decision. Even if it goes against your tastes and desires. That is maturing, understanding that not everything we want to do will be good for us, and that if it will not be good for us, it is not really something we want in our lives.
There will always be times when we feel bewildered and lost, but it's easy to get back on track. Because you have learned who your unconditional friends are, you listen to the advice and think about how every step you take will affect your present and future life.
I am very happy to have participated in this initiative. Thank you for the opportunity.

Stubborn streak during teenage years, had we listened we may have avoided some bumps and bruises, we never do. Looking back on life it's difficult to alter much as time has passed we can only adjust as we move forward.

Completely agree with you. Teenage time is different and we had to go through a lot of changes during that time. Guidance would have been helpful but in the end, we learned, took lessons, and moved on in life...You have shared some good advice, it will be helpful for future generations indeed...
Thanks for sharing...
La experiencia siempre será útil, si con ella podemos guiar a otros, pues mucho mejor 😊
