1. Learning to balance bodybuilding with life. Be serious but dont let the sport take over you. (kinda learned this from big phil)
2. I learned that you cant help someone that cant help themselves. Be there for the person, but dont stress yourself out trying to help them. If they want your advice they will take it. Regardless if they take it, you will always know that you did your best to help someone out.
3. I learned not to focus on the negatives you have in life, but to focus more on the positives.
all these things i havent necessarily gone through myself, but my gf has and i was with her every step of the way and i learned from it as well.
