There's something about these autumn months that gets me so excited. I feel like its around about October that something inside me clicks and just says : 'right, you need to make some changes' and usually, I follow this feeling.
This past week, as the school term continues to drag and university applications are fast approaching, pressure and worry has really begun to set in. I'm sure I'm not the only one that gets this way sometimes. Life just has a little way of preparing you for inevitable dramas that are often just around the corner. I had a moment to myself recently when I just started to think about my entire teen years and all the highs and the lows and how they have all made a huge contribution to many of the things I am and the things I do today. When you have a little time to yourself , think about all the progress you've made over the pat few years and you may actually surprise yourself.
A couple of things stood out to me as I was having my little reflection and I felt like I had to share them with you.
1. Never try to make yourself the image of someone else. Never, never, never.
2. Go back and try new things you didn't have time for in the past
3. Fireworks are definitely a good idea
4. Don't let other peoples definition of beautiful get mixed up with yours
5. Mistakes are chances to learn
What would you say you have learnt the most from your younger self, or what would you say to your younger self now? Let me know in the comments
Have a spectacular week

Ah this is gorgeous and all of it is so true. I especially agree with number 5, mistakes are a chance to learn :)
