"What the secret to a happy life?"

I think you should love yourself before you can be happy in life. You start to feel confident when you surround yourself with people and things that make you happy. To feel happy, you have to ignore the people who try to bring you down. Also, by saying positive thoughts about yourself eventually will trick your brain to believe anything you say to yourself. Another thing is to not overthink too much. “If it's not going to matter in five years then it doesn’t matter.” Lastly, don’t push yourself to the point where you feel overwhelmed, and find something else that makes you happy.

What advice would you give to your younger self? 

 Some advice that I would give my younger self is to put yourself out there. People will always have something to say and you'll never please anyone. As long as I am happy with what I do and the choices I've made then I'll be okay.No one pays my bills, put food on my table or maintains clothes on my back, so why should I worry about what people have to say about my lifestyle.

What is the lesson of taking you the longest to learn?

Time management. I always try do everything at once, and I try to find the time, but procrastination play a big role, and I just go with the flow, so instead I just procrastinate. It is the hardest because I really have to do a lot and it all piles up and I focus my attention on the wrong stuff and end up putting aside to the last minute everything I was supposed to do, so its hard. Hopefully by the time I get to college I will have resolved this issue and use it as a learning experience.

1. What is your favorite word? Food, because it's food.
2. What advice would you give to your younger self? I would tell my younger self to not do anything that I would do. To always respect your elders, respect your mom, respect the police, and anyone because respect is powerful. Get good grades to get places in the future because they are very important. And to think about a good career that would make your family proud, like an engineer or doctor.

What advice would you give to your younger self?

I would tell my younger self to not get too attached to people because everyone takes their own path at some point and to not depend on people because they might let you down. I would also tell myself to not put yourself down in those bad situation because everything has a solution. To just leave everything in God’s hands because he will always be there when I need him. He will take care of the problem and will help me move forward. I would tell myself to cherish the ones you have now and be grateful of what you have or is given to you. To focus on school and stop playing because everything matters, every grades matter. Also make goals for the future that will be accomplished and accomplish them.

What is the lesson that has taken you the longest to learn?

The lesson that has taken me the longest to learn is to finish my homework when I have to. I believe education is important to me, but sometimes I forget to do my homework. Education is important to me because I would like a job that I can be proud of.
