the discomfort of growth is always better than the illusion of safety.
That period between 25-29 has to be the most worrisome part of adult life.
You worry about so much. Your dreams, a life partner, finances, the future, your parents getting old. Everything.
When you are 20–25, you still somehow believe that you gonna have a great future and you’ll be rich. When you are 25-30, you start realising that this is not the case.
Very easy to fall in depression or develop anxiety disorders.
Its true. I am happier now at 30 going to 31 than in my 25s. Because I finally cut some slack for myself. Because I realized nothing goes as we plan and there is no point in stressing out about things you can’t control.
Today you have everything, tomorrow you have nothing. Someone will always have more than you, but someone will always have less than you.
Count your blessings. Family (if they are good), dear friends, health, food on the table, roof over your head etc.
When someone you love gets seriously sick, you realize the chase for money, houses, cars, carreer means nothing. All you want is that person to be ok and you would give everything.
One thing I can tell is that people tend to over-react and over-think a few things.
Don’t over dramatise things!
Keep it simple, you're an adult, plan your life, look at your income, your monthly expenses, create a budget sheet, make sure to stick to it and make some savings.
Then make the rest of your decisions (having a baby, moving to a new apt, getting a new car, medical bills...etc.) based on that.
If you're troubled with finances, suck it up and find a part-time job. If your skills only allow you to work in one job then step your shit up some!
Actively work on improving yourself and picking up new skills (programming, graphic design, web development, personal training...etc.) and use that for other sources of revenue.
The final advice would be,
‟The first thing you do after waking up should be making your bed". (Jordan Peterson).
Best advice ever. Achieving such a small goal can set your mind frame up for the day.
Goodluck.
Life is not about finding the right person, but creating the right relationship. It's not how we care in the beginning, but how much we care till the very end. Search for a good heart, but don't search for a beautiful face, coz beautiful things are not always good, but good things are always beautiful.
never leave a woman that loves you for a woman you love, you will regret it
if you don't have self control, you're a liability to your woman and your children
At 25,
I think the first thing you need to know is that you have lived a tangible fraction of your life and there is no better time to get serious about your future than now. You spent a huge chunk of the last 25 years growing up, discovering the things you like and dislike, fooling around and making some very bad choices. Now is the time to stop all that and take your life more seriously because nobody else will do it for you. If you are going to ‟fuck these hoes‟, Etc. please do it responsibly! It keeps the sloppiness to a minimum and keeps all scenarios as your business. Learn life. Because I know you're better than this bullshit you're displaying! I dont like to sound preachy and shit but....fuck it!
Never cry over something, that can't cry over you
