If you could offer a newborn child only one piece of advice, what would it be?

Just choosing one piece of advice is hard, but I think it would be to never pre-judge someone. Never make up your mind about how you feel about someone until you have met them and gotten to know them, because they may surprise you.

This is something I feel like a lot of people need to remember. Just because someone looks a certain way doesn't mean that's how they are going to act. I know it's hard to not make these judgements at times especially in a society where everyone is judged by what they wear and how they look.

I try and remember this when I'm meeting new people and catch myself making judgments on them before I've even talked to them. I know I wouldn't want someone to judge me before meeting me so I try and not judge someone else before I've met them.

When you've made up your made and project that idea onto those people they begin to reflect it. So, even if you do make judgements, try and be positive, because people are only as good as they believe people think they are.

Love,
Natalie
