You and Yourself Ten Years Ago

How old are you and what would you say to your self 10 years ago?

I am 25 and I would probably tell my 15 year old self not to trust my mother as much, not to hesitate to peruse anything I wanted, and that I was on the right track and not to worry so much about success or failure.

35-25. I'd tell me, "Enjoy the next two years. Everything goes to shit from there."

25

First I would kick 15 year-old self in the balls, yell "QUIT BEING SUCH A PUSSY!" then kick me in the stomach.

I deserved it.

I'd tell my 15 y/o self to do more Sci/Math and skip the Finance and Comp Sci bullshit.

47.

I would tell my 37 year old self, when you see the senior execs selling all their stock options, SELL YOURS TOO, dumbass.

I would tell my 10 year old self to enjoy being a child, set goals, focus on and work hard to obtain them, and to be happy with myself and my appearance. I would tell me to love myself.

I would also knock some nutrition sense into my little prepubescent head.

I would tell 15 year old me not to get involved with that boy.

32 now. I would have told myself at 22 to focus in school because the opportunity to truly pursue what you want and not settle for what you can arrange with your work schedule will not be around forever.

22. I'd tell my 12 year old self: Go to the doctor before your apendix bursts, don't wait 'til after.

I'm 21, and I'd tell my 11 year-old self to calm down and try to enjoy the new school I was moved into--that if you stopped being so angry and depressed all the time, you could make your elementary and high school life much more easier and fun if you did.
