Small Pieces of Advice I Tell My Older Cousin

 Here are a few of the words of advice I tell my elderly cousin often.

Take your time. When you are rushing to finish a task and your mind is drifting, you are more likely to loose your balance or drop something.

Focus on one thing at a time. If you are easily distracted or trying to do too much at once, try to focus on the just one thing at a time. This will lead to better outcomes and less trouble.

Tell yourself "good job!" If you don't have someone around to compliment you, then you have to compliment yourself. A simple reminder that you can do something regardless of how simple, will boost your confidence and independence.
