What advice would you give to yourself three years ago?

Live.  Really live. Take advantage of EVERYTHING.  Yes, the kids at work might make you crazy, and your family may drive you nuts, but it's so worth it.

Life is good.  You are on the verge of greatness.  Enjoy this time.  Take every advantage you can.  Good things can happen if you seek them out.

When you start to feel weird - numb as the case may be - get it looked it right away.  I know you'd rather ignore it and hope it goes away, but it won't.   The quicker you can catch it, the better off you'll be.

You have some really great friends.  Cherish them.  Take advantage of their wonderfulness.  They are the kind of folks who will be with you forever.  They love you and you love them.

Know that you are about to face a few challenges.  It's not going to be easy, but you can totally do it.  Keep your mind in the right place and anything is possible.
