The Best Life Lessons to take from 2015

Life is constantly teaching us lessons and 2015 has been another year where the good and bad lessons of life have helped me to be even stronger than I was before. 2015 has been a rollercoaster of a year for me what with writing a dissertation, graduating with a 1st class honours in Advertising, getting my first full-time job and not to mention the normal stresses and worries every twenty-one year old gets from time to time - relationship status, social life, spot breakouts and that awkward transition from a young night-out loving adult into the adult that works full-time and has to seriously think about her future - life lessons of 2015 can be hard for a twenty-one year old.

Whether the life lessons that I've learnt from 2015 are good or bad; here are the best ones that I am going to take from this year into the next: 

1. It's the small yet simple things like friendships and family that you should treasure more than anything. 
2. Fighting for what you want isn't always easy, it can be extremely challenging but it is vital for your survival. 
3. Suffering alone might seem the easier option but confiding in someone can be the even easier option.
4. It is never too late to do anything in life, you just have to want it. 
5. Over thinking and worrying is a waste of time and doesn't help you move forward. 
6. A little bit of confidence goes along way. 
7. It is not embarrassing to be a #Directioner or #Belieber anymore - Loving these tunes at the moment!
8. Your happiness will help you through all your bumps and upsets that your future journey might hold.
9. If your not happy about something. Fix it! Only you can make yourself happy.
10. People who judge you for being yourself aren't worth getting to know. 
11. Perfect is boring. What even is perfect anymore? 
12. It's better to be single that in a relationship that doesn't make you happy.
13. There is always someone that is going to be better, richer, thinner or prettier than you but being positive is just as good if not better as all of those things. 
14. True friends are the ones that drop everything and support you no matter what or where they are. 
15. Things do happen for a reason, the good and the bad. 
16. Sometimes making sacrifices now can help with your future. 
17. Being mentally strong is better than being physical strong. 
18. Your biggest strength comes from not giving up and succeeding. 
19. Your work life shouldn't take over your social life - there should be an equal balance. 
20. Team work makes dreams work - cliché saying but it is true! 

Until the next time there is a lesson or two to be learnt in life, Au Revoir! 

Love, 

Lauren xo
