Tony’s advice to his younger self -

 

“Don’t worry kid, everything will work out ok

 

Don’t listen to people that don’t understand your chosen direction. Most of these people will be stuck where they are and will live with regret. Don’t be afraid to fail. Whether it is a best lift, a job, a relationship or a dream. Failure teaches us what we need to push forward.

 

Success is failure turned inside out.

 

Dream bigger. Because if you dream small, that is what you will get.

 

Don’t rely on anyone else for your happiness or self  worth. People and circumstances change.

 

Keep seeing the good in people, it will always outweigh the bad.

 

Don’t ever do anything to prove someone wrong. Do it all to prove yourself right.

 

Train yourself to sleep less and live more. Life is short, don’t waste a moment.

 

Be genuinely curious, make friends wherever your travel.

 

Have many layers. Reveal your layers slowly, only as you learn to trust people.

 

Never hesitate to help others and share your knowledge. This cannot be quantified but always comes back ten fold.

 

Realise that everything happens for a reason. Strive to be happy, life is an amazing ride.

 

Don’t worry kid, everything will work out ok.”
