Re:Ask HN: What are top advice you give to your yunger self by JohnFen on Wednesday May 01, 2024 @11:59AM (#40225105)
This is a thing I put a lot of thought into.

Years ago, I wrote a short book of the advice I would have given to my young self, and gave a copy to each of my children when they were young. It contains about a dozen points.

It's hard to select which of those would be my top pick, but I suppose it would be what I called "the big secret": you can't always decide what is going to happen to you, but you can always decide how you're going to respond to it.
