Advice to younger Airmen

What are some pieces of advice you would give to younger or newer Airmen? I would tell them to find a mentor that they trust and can confide in. Someone who is going to tell them when they’re messing up and when they’re doing a good job.

I’m leaving this base and most airmen don’t even know who their rater is and are just blindly going through this Air Force. I wanna drop some nuggets at my going away in a few weeks.
