"10 Things I'd Love to Tell My Younger Self"

  • You are at least 10 times prettier than you think you are.
  • The only thing you should be faking is confidence.
  • Want to try something new like painting, skiing, yoga? Go to the library and borrow 10 different books on the subject.
  • No matter how old you get, remember what it was like to be a nine-year old girl.
  • In the same vein, flowers — freshly cut or potted — are never a waste of money.
  • Speaking of money, starting right this moment, whether you’re 20 or 60, you can change your finances around.
  • If your stomach hurts and you haven’t got a virus, you’re in a bad situation.
  • When meeting someone new and he or she seems to be behaving like a jerk, show compassion first.
  • Wear sunscreen on your face, neck, and hands every day — winter and summer.
  • And if you are in bed with a man, and he’s the right man… meaning your stomach doesn’t hurt, he’s smiling at you, he knows your name, he’s not drunk, and neither are you—for godsakes—enjoy yourself.
