#2Enjoy yourself, it's later than you think. Enjoy yourself, while you're still "in the pink". The years go by more quickly than you blink. Enjoy yourself. Enjoy yourself, it's later than you think.

#3Use sunscreen. This advice can be useful for you, as we use it in our team named CyberCraft https://cybercraftinc.com) Anyway, you will make your own mistakes, fall down and get up. Of course, there are few things that are obvious. Try to build your prosperous future. Try to stay healthy and create a passive income to feel comfortable when you are 40)

#4Look into investing/saving money, starting with 25 or 35 or 35 makes a huge difference.
Try to get or stay in shape, it gets harder and harder when you get older.

#5there's no life advice. do whatever you want and suffer the consequences
if you are looking for advice of how to optimize yourself or outcomes, at some point you will realise you've wasted much of your life working for that optimisation and not actually doing the things you've wanted.
and if you do too much of the things you want, you might end up too fat, too unhealthy, broke etc.
there's no way around that, there's never perfect and optimal because your life isn't perene, but fatal.
also don't look at statistics, you might on average live up to 80+ or 90+, but you can also be the 'lucky' one to get cancer, or whatever sickness that might shorten your lifespan a lot. so don't over optimise, do the stuff you want, it's the most important thing. whatever silly thing it is.
my mother did everything she could to optimize, i've always envied how healthy she was(even more than me, 2 decades younger), she visited the doctor regularly, ate her greens and died of cancer young, when nobody known of our whole ancestry ever got cancer.
tldr: do whatever you want

#6This will be a different advice from what you expect, but be thankful for all things you have.
Stop worrying about being more productive and making a lot more money. I'm not saying you shouldn't think about this things, but don't let worries about those things consume you and become your whole life.
Understand that on average you are living better than kings and queens did thausend years ago or even 100 years ago. Got a fridge? well be thankful for that. Got heating, a bed, bath, clothes, food that you like? you are living the dreams of billions of people who can't have any of it. Just be thankful for things before you want to get more.
Happiness is doing more and expecting less.

#8Learn perspectives on life, sets of values etc. of different people. See what sounds appealing to you and try implementing that. If, over time, you have problems with motivating yourself to follow that path or it somehow feels wrong otherwise, try analyzing what exactly is the nature of the problem and correct for that, or choose a different path entirely. Using this method, over time, you will discover your natural preferences and will be able to construct a life that agrees with you and feels right.

No, the one thing that you can never absolutely recover back is time, there have been miricale cures and people win the lottery, but no recorded events of someone getting to live two lives.
