"Experience is the name everyone gives to their mistakes". Agree?

It was a year of my conscious choices (well, I have to admit, some of them were really stupid, but...nobody's perfect). To move on I need to go through those "conclusions" or whatever you call it.
So here's what I've learned:
About relationships:
♥ There are no guarantees in relationships. You might be head over the hills for that "perfect guy", but I may dissapoint you – all these "can't live without you" you hear today may vanish the next moment (or morning, if you know what I mean). Even after marriage it may turn out, that you're completely different. Surprise! Choosing (is it really a choice?) a life partner is more like a lottery? Or karma?
♥ Having my (different from others) life philosophy, it is really hard for me to be in a relationship. By default. And it's nobody's fault. ♥ We hurt the ones we love. A paradox, right?
♥ If something bothers you, TELL ABOUT IT! (And they'll either accept it (and change) or...not. Would you personally change your habits, believes, lifestyle just because "someone" doesn't like it? That's why I completely understand, that it's much easier to let it all go and be on your own. Just one thing– do what matters most: that charming soul you want to wake up with every morning and achieve your goals together? Or drinking in bars and playing "Gears of war" while she's struggling with insomnia?
♥ If your close person is not with you any more, you can still love them. (Don't listen to life coaches, who suggest you to "forget that idiot")
♥ No one can take away from me my memories

About time:
▲ Time you enjoy wasting is not wasted. (Just don't let it become your rountine:P)
▲ Having a "to do" list for a day prevents from scrolling instagram feed
▲ Time is the answer. ("where do you see yourself in 5 years?" always makes me laugh)
▲ The right time never comes. Every moment is the right moment
▲ There's no point of waiting until tomorrow
About friends:
☼ Your success is my success.
☼ Sometimes all we need is a talk with a person, who supports us, believes in us
☼ I might not tell you what you want to hear, but what you NEED to hear
☼ Men and women can't be "just friends"

About a job:
If you can't find your dream job, create it
Do something you're passionate about (unless it's eating)
About money:
If you need money, WORK! (not enough money? work!). Do you still believe in Santa with a bag full of bucks? Pfff... Don't be naive. Yeah, sure, you can keep meditating and practising positive affirmations. Let me know if they work :D
Other:
★ There are things we do, and those we don't (for some reasons)
★ Having fears is ok
★ Any time you can try to become a little better
★ If you feel like something is not for you, change it
★ Traveling, music and love are always the best medicine
★ Life without coffee exists
★ You have no idea what's gonna happen tomorrow...
