When I was a teenager I couldnāt wait to turn 18. It felt as if it took ages to finally attain majority. But sooner or later you turn 18 and you can finally take your own decisions in life. Along with all the new freedoms and rights comes also a great deal of responsibility. A responsibility for yourself, your life and what you make of it. When you are 18 you meet quite a lot of decisions that have an impact on your future life. Some of these decisions turn out to be really great, others not. Wouldnāt it be great to know exactly what kind of mistakes you need to be wary of when you are young? Why not even try to avoid the mistakes many young people make? If I had the possibility to meet my younger self this is the advice I would give. These are the things I wish I knew when I was 18.
Things every 18 year old needs to know
1. Friendship is about quality, not quantity
When you are young you want to go out and meet all sorts of new people. Most likely, youāll even find yourself in situations and places where you get to know lots of interesting people. That is great as long as you donāt fall for the illusion that amassing friends is more worthwhile than a couple of real friends.
Only your true friends will be there for you when you need them. They will come running for you, even if you call them in the middle of the night. Your best friends will be on your side and give you strength in times of great despair.
All the other people are nice acquaintances. They are nice to get to know and fun to hang around with. But they might not be the people that help you fighting off whatever life throws at you. If you are able to discern between true friends and mere acquaintances, you will be very well.
True friendship is when you walk into their house and your WiFi connects automatically. ā Unknown
2. Donāt worry so much
Worrying is a big waste of time. Being troubled over something gives you unnecessary headaches about things that will not even be important to you in a couple of years. Plus, thereās always something to worry about: your grades, your future, the economy, global warming. The list never ends.
If something troubles you then by all means: get up and do something about it. Worrying alone never solved anything. Use that precious time of yours for solving the problem, not for worrying about it. The advice I would give my 18-year-old self about worrying is this: do your best and everything will just be fine.
If you want to test your memory, try to recall what you were worrying about one year ago today. ā E. Joseph Cossman
3. Live within your means / avoid getting into debt
Spending money that you donāt have is not such a good idea. Do it the old-fashioned way. If you want something, save until you can afford it. If you canāt afford it, donāt buy it. This simple rule can help you to stay out of a lot of trouble.
Buying things on credit is not super cool. Instead, you end up paying interest on top of the price. Let me repeat this. You pay more than everybody else.
Getting into debt can turn into a real nightmare. One day you wake up from it and you realize two things. First, that your paycheck is now largely spent on paying back the debt. Secondly, that you could have bought some pretty expensive things from the accumulated interest that you have paid all over the years.
When you get in debt you become a slave. ā Andrew Jackson
4. Donāt marry too early
The younger you marry, the more likely it is that you will get divorced (statistics are taken from National Center for Health). As a consequence, the highest rate of divorce can be found amongst those who marry under the age of 20. The divorce rate starts to decrease for couples who are 20 to 24 years old when they marry. Divorce is even less likely for those who marry at the age of 25 or thereafter.
If you are young and want to avoid a stupid mistake, then wait for marriage until you are really sure. See how the relationship develops over the years.
They say marriages are made in Heaven. But so is thunder and lightning. ā Clint Eastwood
5. Save half your paycheck
The feeling of holding the very first paycheck in your hands is just incredible. Finally, you can afford to buy all those fancy things that you always wanted. But make not the mistake of living from paycheck-to-paycheck.
As a young person, you have not many financial responsibilities. There is no family that you have to take care of. No mortgage to pay off. Use this time to lay the proper financial foundation for the rest of your life. Saving parts of your paycheck helps you to build a safety net for times of uncertainty. But it will also allow you to invest a certain amount of your money with a nice return.
Trust me. The letter to my 16-year-old self has this one important sentence in it: "spending two of your paychecks on a Nokia 3310 looks like an incredibly stupid thing to do, 10 years later. We use mobiles with touchscreens now."
Beware of little expenses; a small leak will sink a great ship. ā Benjamin Franklin
6. Take responsibility for your mistakes
Most people blame anyone else but themselves for the events in their life. Thatās the easy route to take, youāll always find someone to blame. Where does this lead? Victimhoodāyou become a victim, instead of taking action. Stop doing that, youāre not the victim. Man-up and take responsibility.
Mistakes happen so that you can learn from them. If you play the blame game you will learn nothing. Instead, the same mistakes happen to you all over again. That is until you start to seek the reason for what happens in yourself.
We are taught you must blame your father, your sisters, your brothers, the school, the teachers ā but never blame yourself. It's never your fault. But it's always your fault, because if you wanted to change you're the one who has got to change. ā Katharine Hepburn
7. Donāt make money your highest priority
Sure, you need money. Thatās a given, but money should not become your ultimate motivation. The people that profoundly changed the world all had a vision in mind, not the money they could make from it. Pursue your dream and see if you can create something of great value both to yourself and others.
Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life. ā Confucius
Also, you will have to ask yourself if a satisfying job is more important to you than a higher-paying job that turns out to be soul-crushing. Only you can answer this question.
Should you even manage to find a profession that you are really interested in you are a lucky person. Being really passionate about what you do is a prerequisite for success. And always remember, no one ever wishes they had worked more when they die. But many people regret not having spent enough time with their kids and family.
8. Take care of your health
As an 18-year-old you are near of reaching your physical peak. Your body will tolerate all kinds of stresses with great ease. Something you really donāt want to do is abuse this feature of your body. Instead, use this phase to lay the proper foundation for a healthy life. This is the best time to develop strength by exercising regularly. It is much more difficult to do this at a later time. Consequently, losing weight will become a lot more difficult when you are older.
Physical fitness is not only one of the most important keys to a healthy body, it is the basis of dynamic and creative intellectual activity. ā John F. Kennedy
9. Avoid excesses
Moderation is the big keyword here. Managing to avoid excesses is something that your body will thank you for in later life. Nobody asks you to live like a saint, but if you are able to stay away from smoking and drugs you can avoid a lot of problems. Also, eat and drink with moderation. You have only one chance. Once you have ruined your health itās incredibly difficult to restore the damages. Sadly, most people only realize this when it is too late. Donāt be one of them.
Everything in excess is opposed to nature. ā Hippocrates
10. Learn to appreciate the little things
When youāre young you want to take on the world. You dream big and have high hopes for the future. However, not all wishes come to fruition. Be prepared for this. Too high expectations can lead to pretty big disappointments.
This mindset is a great foundation that cannot be shaken too easily, even if you are not able to reach a given desire. It helps you to shift your focus away from desperately trying to pursue all that which you donāt have. This pursuit is a rat race that leads you nowhere.
It's the little details that are vital. Little things make big things happen. ā John Wooden
11. You always reap what you sow
Karma will always get you. As a young person, you think that you are somehow immune to the consequences of your actions. But in miraculous ways, your past will always catch back up. Sooner or later, all that goes around comes back around. You can learn it the hard way or you can try to do good things.
How people treat you is their karma; how you react is yours. ā Wayne W. Dyer
12. You only live once, so what?
YOLO is a great excuse for meeting irrational decisions. The "you only live once" attitude will lead you nowhere, except to places bad ideas generally lead. Living one's moronic desires is never a good idea, celebrating stupidity neither.
Donāt get me wrong here; there is nothing wrong with making the best of life and living it to the fullest. But there is a great difference between spending your time in a focused manner and wasting it on the fast lane.
You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough. ā Mae West
13. Cherish your family
Family comes first, need I to say more? Donāt put down the people who supported you from the beginning and will continue to do so. Spend time with them and enjoy their presence.
Family means no one gets left behind or forgotten. ā David Ogden Stiers
14. Know what you want
Not knowing what you want will lead you astray. If you have a goal, a vision or a dream your focus will become much sharper. It will help you to prioritize that which is important. But it will also increase your willingness to make sacrifices.
If you donāt already know exactly what you want from life, then youād better figure it out. As soon as possible.
When you know what you want, and want it bad enough, you will find a way to get it. ā Jim Rohn
15. Nothing good happens after 2 AM
Seriously, did anyone ever tell you that "you wouldnāt believe what happened after 3 AM?" These stories always end up with someone being taken to the hospital. Or the stories have words like cops, bouncers, mistake or vomit in it. Donāt waste your next day and go home when you feel that the party is starting to decline, it will never reach its peak again.
I stay up late every night, and realize itās a bad idea every morning. ā Unknown
Further advice for 18-year-olds:
ā¢ Donāt be so hard on yourself
ā¢ Accept that you make mistakes and move on
ā¢ Learn from your mistakes
ā¢ Donāt let anybody stop you from living your dreams
ā¢ Get to know your parents
ā¢ There is never a right time
ā¢ Relax, everything is going to workout
ā¢ Donāt try to fit in, be proud of standing out
ā¢ Hope for the best but plan for the worst
ā¢ Donāt move together too quickly
ā¢ Donāt worry about what others think of you
ā¢ Donāt waste your time trying to get others to like you
ā¢ Travel the world
ā¢ Donāt be embarrassed about everything
ā¢ Donāt spend everything you have; donāt save everything you have
ā¢ Have a great partner or have none at all
Life advice submitted by readers:
Skip marriage, why self-incarcerate? Give more than you take. Work for its own sake. Don't compete for anything. Never ask for a raise or promotion, if you're good, they'll come to you. Learn a foreign language. Never buy a house, if you must, never borrow to buy it. Paying interest is the same as burning your money. To stay ahead of the cheats, study statistics, probability, interest rates, present and future value. Find what's false, negative thinking is the highest form of thinking. (That's not the same as being a negative person.) Don't judge people, particularly yourself, nobody can help who they are, free will is an illusion.

I wish I had known 1 when I was 18!
I have reduced my friends so much over the years. I think I've only got a handful left I truly care about.
How many close and really good friends do you think we need Steve?
Highly agree with 12 as well, can't stand these excuses to just drink and party any more.
Keep up the good work!
I think the number of friends is not so important. If you have one really really good friend who will always stand by your side no matter what happens then you have all the friends you need.
Hello Steve, I'm to turn 19 very soon.
I've been depressed and miserable from like last 2 years. I'm always sad. I don't have any friends at all. I'm not a good looking guy. I feel insecure a lot. I'm so scared and emotionally messed. I had 2 golden opportunities to get into the academy i always dreamt of ever since i was a kid but i couldn't get into the academy because of my mental health and it's killing me inside. It's the biggest regret of my life. I let my time slip away when i really had to utilise it.
I don't want to be sad and depressed anymore. I don't want to deal with everything. I just want to feel normal. I really want to be happy but I'm stuck in my head. It just seems impossible to get out of my dark mental prison.
As a 19 year old, thanks for this
I like advice you gave on saving your moneyā¦ Seriously it's so hard. For example, I spent my first pay check on a iPhone.
No, I don't regret it (yet) :p
These are really lots of priceless advice for 18 years Steve and i wish someone has given them to me when i was 18.
I agree with all your points and it will really help anyone that diligently followed it in life.
Another thing is to always know when best to say YES and when NO is better regardless of whom is involved.
I also love the idea of not basing your friends on quantity but quality, this will really enable you to get rid of fake friends.
Thanks for sharing.
The biggest thing I wish I would have done at 18 was to write down my goals and really go for them. If you do not have set goals, you just wander through life aimlessly.
Great post mixed with really good content and humor. I'm 22, but not so far away from 18 and the lessons still ring true four years later!
Great post, if only 18 year olds would read it and process it! I know my 18 year old self wouldn't have. If only I could go back and do it overā¦ ah but that would be too easy wouldn't it!
As a 21-year-old I cannot thank you enough for this compilation. I will definitely take everything you've written into consideration. This could be really helpful for me.
I wish I knew that back thenā¦
Turned 18 today but i was afraid of growing up. Didn't have anyone to talk to so i resorted to advice on the internet and am glad i found you, Sir Steve. I pray I follow these advice diligently and proudly stand as a living testimony to its efficiency in years to come. # I'm_inspired
Woooooaa,thumbs up Steve.You the man..great,super and life changing advices.Applying them NOW and NOW..turning 18 on October 8..
Hello sir may I plz talk to u for a while i really need help
Hey Steveā¦ I'm 19 years currently and I don't like my job, it pays me well for me still living with parents and not having much bills to pay, I am trying my best to avoid depression but it keeps creeping up on me. I took up a job doing 6pm-6am 60 hours one week and the other week 34-36 hoursā¦ It's definitely taking a toll on my body but the paychecks are gonna be pretty big, I'm following your advice on saving money and not getting myself into debtā¦ What should I invest in so I can get out of this job ASAP and pursue financial freedom and freedom in general?
Hi Jason, first of all I highly recommend that you read the books āRich dad poor dadā and also the book āthe millionaire next door.ā These books offer excellent advice when it comes to financial freedom and how you can accomplish this independence.
Secondly, you are very young so it is quite natural that working feels quite difficult and stressful. As you grow older, you will see that you are better able to manage the burdens of a stressful worklife. Perhaps, it might be a good idea to cut down a little with those night shifts you take, so as to reduce the burden you place upon yourself. In many situations, it is a lot more preferable to earn a little less but to be happier instead.
Regarding the depressing feelings that are coming up. What I found really helpful is to stop looking for happiness in the outside world. This may sound strange, especially when you're young. But I personally have realized that happiness that comes from the outside (for example by buying a fancy car) is passing and not that fulfilling. By learning to be happier with less and by seeking happiness within, you become less dependent on the happenings of the outside world. But again, these are ideas that are pretty difficult to understand when you're very young.
Perhaps it might be a good idea to really look into yourself and to figure out where these negative feelings arise from and to make necessary changes in your life.
Steve thank you so much for your detailed response. I really do appreciate itā¦ My goal is to save 10k by my 20th birthday to go travel, I've always wanted to be an entrepreneur, how did you find out what you love to do? I am still dabbling on business ventures, most of them have failed hence why I am still relying on a job for my source of income. What kind of career advice would you recommend an ambitious 19 year old that wants to succeed in business without having to go to college? I am currently one and a half years out of school since high school. Look forward to your response sir thank you so much!!!
-Jason
What is your life story and how you got to where you are now Steve? Was college big for your success in life? What tools do you recommend for success?
Thank you so much sir. I am an orphan and don't really have a direction. So I am always looking for advice like this. Thanks again!
Sir Steve, stay blessed. My prayer is that I would grow to review all these points written down in my book to check whether what I reaped is actually what I sowed by following these advices? But please I have a little question? A black female friend wants to pursue a course at the university but it seems that course is dominated by males? What should she expect and how should she manage all these they call āstereotype'.
Your kindly advice could help.
Thanks
THANKS SOO MUCH SIR. MY FRIEND FEELS MORE RELIEVED NOW! YOU'VE GOT HER MOVING. THANKS ONCE AGAIN
STAY BLESSED
Hey Steve,
First I'd like to say, this was a great read and much needed advice.
I've just recently turned 18 and have been out of school for approximately half a year. When school ended I decided to take the summer off, and enjoy it alongside my family and friends. Fast forward 6 months, I'm still living in the small town in which I graduated and I am yet to find a job, I've received job offers from a city nearly 2 hours away but I'm scared to move, I feel much more comfortable in my hometown.
I've also been thinking allot about the future, and what I want to do. I still haven't decided, but I know I have to start working soon. I'm scared that I'll start working, and I'll become sidetracked. (Will forget about my dreams and ambitions). Would moving to the city for 6 months to work and save money, then returning to my hometown make sense? I want to save money, and move back. Once I move back I'd like to find a job, doesn't necessarily have to pay well, but I'd like to then re focus my energy on my Dreams and the future. Any advice you have to offer would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance š

This Is A Great Article Steve,Thank You Very Much For Sharingā¦
I Just Turned 18 Last Week Tuesday (25th April) And There's Nobody To Give Me Advice (Though I Have Parents).
I've Been Having Problems Connecting To New People Alot And I've Tried Everything I Can To Change My Attitude Towards Talking To Other New People, But Nothing Seems To Work, And I'm Always Alone Too Much (And I Don't Know If It's A Good Or A Bad Thing) Plus It's Hard For Me To Have A Crush On A Girl (Not That I'm Gay Or Anything), And I Enjoy Being Alone Than Being With Company (I Don't Know If That Has A Negative Effect Though, But I Think It's High Time I Started Being Around Friends And All That) And It's Just That Most Girls I've Had Crush On Tend To Be One Of My Friends And I Just Wanted To Know If There's Any Advice You Can Give To Me I'll Really Appreciate It, Thanks.
I just turned 18 last Friday and I'm really feeling the pressure to decide what I want to do when I leave college. I really have no clue but reading this has really helped me narrow down what's really important to me and what matters most.
Feeling less stressed now,
Thankyou
An Excellent Article indeedā¦
The earlier we know the do's and don't in life, the better it is and is less painful.
Learned a lot from the articleā¦.
Thanks
Great article steve,
it's really helped me think things through.
I recently turned 18 and i haven't had it easy with myself lately.I don't know if i have any goals or ambitions, most of my friends have it all figured out and i feel as though i might have a problem. Any advice?
I visit day-to-day some web sites and blogs to read content, however this blog
provides feature based content.
itās really helped me think things through. Best advise for an 18-year old Mainly for people in their new teens or early twenties.
Great advice. Do you have a print version I can share with my 18 year old?
Very helpful sir.please i need your help sir i am a 19 years old boy who need an advice.
I have 2 young sisters who stay with me and my father.i lost mom so which means i am the mother to my sisters.because of this i can't pursue my dreams which are firstly to become a teacher in the next 4-5 years i'll be through with my education to become a lecturer and secondly i wish to leave my family and go pursue learning mechanical job.
so the problem is leaving them to pursue what i wish to become.
Turning 18 in a few days. Glad I saw this.
Thanks a bunch!
You made a good point that not worrying to much would be one of the simplest advice one could give to pretty much anyone. My niece would be moving out of the city soon for college. Perhaps I should give her a practical wisdom pamphlet as a parting gift.
I am 48 now and I've just discover these advice's. What will I do to better my life hence? Bless you more.
I really enjoyed all the point you make Steve and am so happy, but some days I usually feel like be alone not talking to anyone just be myself and my aunt always complain that I frown a lot and she doesn't like and she even get angry saying I do that most of the time,but it is just how I really want to be for that day.
How can you advice me on this please.
I am a Nigerian.
Thanks.
Am a boy who is 19yrs old what should i do to i have been embbarased about 3 times and all my friend left me
Great article for an 18 year old!
Thank you once again!
Hi Steve,Im Nancy and thanks so much for this 18yr old's article. Thought of giving credit where its due.You know,it really means alot. As an 18 yr old ,I have to say that the advice is real heavy and authentic to any reader. As a firstborn there's this pressure to be the big guy be successful and make my parents proud. I've learnt alot to take with me as I anticipate to join Campus and Im sure they too have gone with one or two.
Thanks again.
Kenyan.
Mistake are to be corrected and correction comes fron mistake,so i have to take the courage and accept the fact that life is a mistry
take life serious.
I'm going to turn 18 in 2 months. I spent the last 2 years in shaping myself. But things seem to be not working recently. I had one great friend and he let me go. We both know that I don't deserve him. Now I think about shifting my focus towards the self-development side. I became a gym freak. It's because I was very lean and thin. But no more. I'm like a very fit person now. I quit games, social media, entertainment and doing things for pleasure. Now I have a lotta free time. But I don't know where to invest my time. Whenever I think of investing my time in college work, I feel something wrong. I passed out of my 12th std with a great rank and with a title of ālegendā. I'm well known for more outcome with a less input. I could ace in my college too. But I think that this isn't because a good mark in school means a good University but that doesn't apply the same now. I want to be successful and diffrent. I'm a hard worker. But I don't know where to invest all my time. I'm a CSE course student in college btw. If there's anything valuable that you can tell me, I'd appreciate it.
I have created 3 plans, they all very important to me but they all failed, so now i'm trying to plan the plan D, i don't even know what to do cuz i'm so lost
