What I would tell my younger self: above all, make good decisions: based on facts and solid reasoning grounded in a range of models of how the world is, paying particular attention to the magnitude of forces: respecting and using forces beyond your control, but always aiming to change the world around you to make you --us-- better.

Not deciding based on feelings or opinions or votes, or on chasing opportunities or shirking danger, etc. Practice daily in small decisions, and the big ones will come more easily.

You really think that younger you would really understand that?

Or say your child?
