Be careful of the kind of people who you seek advice from. Some people are not happy with your blessings in life, and would do anything to stop you from embracing your future blessings.
Focus on your daily blessings, future opportunities and possibilities, and never allow your challenges, struggles, and obstacles to interfere with your peace of mind. You owe abundant happiness and success to your inner-self.
No matter how difficult your life gets, find a way to hold strong to your peace of mind by positively interpreting your negative experiences, counting your daily blessings, and visualizing your future opportunities and possibilities.
Don't permit your past to interfere with your present and future. There are endless possibilities that lie ahead. Go out there with a positive mental attitude and start creating opportunities for yourself instead of waiting for them to come to you.
If you are always worried about the outcomes of your future, then it's time to surround yourself with the right people who would push you harder than you have ever pushed yourself.
Stop complaining about friends who make your life miserable, and start surrounding yourself with positive minded individuals who would lift you up and show you the path to a blissful and successful future.
When your journey to success gets extremely tough, use your past accomplishments as your motivation to keep pushing forward. You did it in the past, and you can also do it again in the present, and in the future.

I can't really tell how old I am, only that I'm too young to wonder if I asked the right questions in the past, and too old to wish the future will bring me all the answers.
