The worst advice I ever got? Probably this: "The world is your oyster; your day will come!" I got that message early in life so I really incorporated it into my worldview. It's taken me what I fear is too long & a lifetime of passive assumption to understand that you should go for what you want, especially while you still have the goods to get it. Nobody- & I mean nobody- will ever hand you your dreams or advocate for your passion like you, yourself. The younger you know this truth, the better.
