The best advice I've ever received in my life is 'be present in the moment.' This helps me to focus on what I can control and also appreciate everyday beauty.

What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever received?
 
Live today as it's your last, because it very well could.

Don't have any regrets, and don't look back on the past. Instead, keep moving forward, trying to be that better version of yourself.
 
My grandmother would say 'Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it.' It’s a lesson that we all need approach challenges with a positive attitude.

Yes, those are good advice too! Another advice that resonates with me is 'embrace curiosity and lifelong learning.' This one too gets to me.

But we all know that curiosity can kill😇. It's good to be curious though, that's more reason to embrace it. Lifelong learning is a best advice that can get to anyone unless the person is a lazy type.
 
Don't hang around bad people because they'll just rub off on you and you'll end up making bad decisions.

(Instead, hang around people that seem to have a purpose as they will drive you to yours and you'll all end up helping each other get where you're headed quicker)

Yeah, good people bring forth good seed while bad people bring forth bad seed. The bad seed will only rub off the good things you had but the good seed will sprout out a new beginning in you. That's a very nice advice.

I've seen it too many times.

Another one to keep your anxiety level down is to control the controllable and accept what you cannot control, then move on with your day. If you waste time with something you can't control, you're just adding more hardship. Figure out another way, or accept that it's something you can't control and live on.

I was listening to a song this morning (ILL Mind of a Hospin 8). Sometimes, even rap songs have deep and meaningful lyrics.

We should constantly evaluate our friendships
Who's speaking into your life?
Who are you depending on?
Make sure they're not dragging you down, limiting you from blossoming
Everybody is not supposed to be in our life forever
If you don't get rid of the wrong friends you will never meet the right friends

Rap songs have deep and meaningful lyrics, the only issue is that they are faster in the mouth of the singers and we the listeners don't have the time to check the lyrics rather we vibes with the songs like that.
