Official unsolicited advice solicitation thread.

I want to hear any and all advice. Career. Love. Ice cream shopping. Murder. General life stuff. Anything.

What's your advice?
Mine:

Set a failure/rejection quota. It makes failing feel like success and it forces you to try risky things.

Also, there is literally no event that can't be improved by hiring a stage manager.

Also also, the best hangover cure is a pedialyte popsicle before bed.
If you have to choose between two things and you're torn, toss a coin.

The coin toss itself is irrelevant. Most of the time, while the coin is in the air, you'll realize the outcome you want. Go with that one.
Learn what 'toxic positivity' is, and vow never to be cheerful at your friends who are in pain just for the sake of avoiding uncomfortable emotions.

Let people feel things. Be there for them, unflinchingly.

Don't dictate when they should move on or forgive.
