What's one solid piece of advice, would you'd offer to a young individual?

be patient, but try to learn something new on your job everyday if you can, you'll eventually make it to awesomeness like I did

Early to bed, early to rise

It is better to give than receive

I told all my 3 kids when they were young (late teens) to enjoy your 20's because it will be the best time in your life. Don't get married until you are in your late 20's or early 30's.

Work hard and be patience. Hang around intelligent people that you may meet during any day. As you get older, you get wiser, and with that comes greater responsibility.

I'm proud to say that all 3 of my kids 38, 36, and 28, are all Republicans.

Do the right thing.
Listen to you inner voice and don’t give in to peer pressure!

Listen to the one telling you to do the right thing and tell the others to hush.

Don't surrender to kids that mock or attempt to bully you. It will mean NOTHING when you are older, unless you let it.

If I knew this nugget, I'd have laid out bullies and shit-bags two deep. I let myself be intimidated as a little kid. It wasn't until my teens that I discovered I didn't need to put up with it.

Second: Don't be a liberal. Above all else in your life do not become a pathetic liberal.
