Love with all your heart, but don't lose your mind in the process.

Never be afraid to let someone know you love them.. Doesn't matter if they love you back...If you love someone make sure you tell them

oh..

Protect your credit...

another very practical one I'd tell my younger self - start putting money in an IRA (and/or 401K) as early as possible.

no, retirement isn't on a 20 year old's mind much, but they will never regret starting early to save for it.

Respect yourself or no one else will.

Plan for the worse. If it doesn't happen feel blessed. If it does happen feel ready.
