Youth is overrated, friend. 

Now that you’re feeling older and more experienced, what do you know that you didn’t used to know that can help you in this journey? 

Here’s a hug,

Have a restful shabbos. 
Keep on cargo boating! 
We are not the same people we once were. We are not so locked into our urges that we have no choice. We can choose to give in or choose to win this battle today. We do not want to give in, the pleasure of giving in is false. 
With Hashem on our side our victory is inevitable; the only way we can lose is by giving up on playing the game.

Smh, I am great at giving other people the advice I could probably use more then them.
Patience and presevernce it will get worse this is easier and a place to practice being happy with simplicity if I can't handle a small number it will just get worse with big numbers and a number doesn't matter that much anyways....

That's awesome! Can you share a little bit about the experience? How was the conversation? How did you feel after? Would you do it again?

Also, did they have any advice that you found helpful/inspirational?
