Sometimes we don't like it, but there's things we need to hear.  “What’s a harsh reality that everyone needs to hear?” Here’s the real talk people think you need to hear, too.

• "It's easier to maintain your health than it is to get it back."
• "Whatever you say can and will be used against you."
• "You can love someone with all of your heart and not be loved back in the same way."
• "You can't force people to like the same things as you."
• "You will die with books you never read, movies and TV shows you never watched, games you never played, places you never got to visit, and things you wanted to say but never did."
• "Other people are thinking about themselves, not about you."
• "Wanting a baby isn’t enough. You have to also want a toddler, and a kid, and a teen, and an adult."
• "You spend too much time on your smartphone."
• "Complaining and not doing anything will get you nowhere. If you don't like your situation, then do something about it."
• "Your happiness is your responsibility. No person or no thing will ever be able to do that for you."
