   Adolescence is honestly a very interesting time of your life, when you are transitioning from being a child to being an adult. And of course, there are a lot of things that you have to take into consideration when you become an adult, because by that time, your parents are not going to be around you anymore (to support you), and that you have to make decisions in your life: if your decisions are wisely made then good for you; however, some decisions that you make may be bad, and even if you want it or not, they may have a huge toll in your life. Because of this, you need to be able to prepare yourself for college as well as when you become older. However, it can get pretty tricky, because as you know, we're still young and we haven't had that much experience with life before. Because of this, today I would like to share with you some practices that you can do in order to better navigate your life, to better understand who you want to be and what you want to do in 10, 20, and even 30 years to come.


   I've said this thing so many times, but please think about the idea of long-termism. So just for people who forget about the definition and what the meaning of long term is admit laundromism is essentially about thinking about the future you always do think and caring about this consequences and how can it affect the future so you're not child anymore you are slowly becoming an adult and every action that you do can bring either benefits or Consequences to you because of this always do things while keeping the idea of loss of mine by that you can ensure that you are doing things well and that the things that you're doing now are not going to affect your future self 


   Mexico learn from the experiences of other people there certainly people around you who have grown up and who are going to have a lot of insights and valuable messages for you the easiest people who I can think of is for parents because again just 23 years ago they used to be like you they used to be very confused about life honestly and they have to go through this themselves because of this if you want you don't want to make mistakes or learn from other people they have different stories to tell you they have different mistakes that you can learn from so that when you are transitioning to an adult you will not make mistakes like people used to make additionally this may sound a bit weird but they are certainly YouTube videos also tell you about this about how to prepare for college housing prepare for your life later on so you can also use them as resources for you to learn from in applying to yourself 


   Now let's talk in more details about how do you actually prepare yourself for your adult life. First of all, you can either take a paper or not, but ask yourself this question: who do you want to be as a person in five years? Just sketch things out, just think in your mind: who do you want to be as a person, where are you going to be at is - it a college, is it that you are making a business, is it that you're traveling around the world - make options and think about who do you want to be by having a small vision at least of who you are wanting yourself to be. By picturing who do you want to be as a person, you can start planning decisions now that can help you to become the person who you want to be. While talking about later on, also think about 10 years, 20 years, when you have become 20 or 30: where do you want to be at, do you want to be at an office, do you want to be the leader of company, who do you want to be? Just ask yourself these kinds of questions: where do you want to be at, are you going to be getting married yet, are you traveling around the world for fun, or are you broke (I bet no one is thinking of this)? After thinking of these possibilities in mind, have a plan how you can achieve that dream: what must you do in order to get to the things that you want to attain? I’m leaving this to you - keep thinking, keep envisioning yourself in the future…
