I have been thinking of this recently. I also have been having chats with my friends and mates from volunteering in my local community. 🧚🏽‍♀️JUJU's reality sharing time: Juju took action for the first time in my life after graduating in 2017. I was free from expectations of VCE, the ATAR score and the education system (for a little bit - another topic to discuss for another day). I read a lot of books to help me navigate work/career life and looking back, although I could of used my time and energy to build up some savings, the people and programs joined have shaped my personal mission and my personal values which have given me the fuel to craft my life. Questions that JUJU used to help plan her graduate life: -What LIFESTYLE do I picture myself in my daily life? -What TASKS/PROJECTS do I want to involve myself in at work? -What environments do I need to keep in order to work on my fears and weaknesses? - If you want the dream, the reward and spiritual growth, there will be environments where we will feel vulnerable, uncomfortable and tested (eg. it could be something like standing for a long period of time and facing people, putting a smile i.e customer service - testing physical endurance and breaking from your introvertness HAHA!) The choice to grow is up to you. -juju 🐙 ~ ^ Quote by Randy Pausch #quoteoftheyear #millennialadvice #spiritualgrowth #mentalhealthrecovery #twentysomething #lifelessons (at Melbourne, Victoria, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/juju_your_guru/p/CXsfayxP2EZ/?utm_medium=tumblr

“To gain —we need to sacrifice something. You can’t have it all.” JUJU Concern: “My dream is — but: I got bills. I have to work…” Choose this and you have deal with this. Either way, every job or career will have its challenges. Remember, life changes and so will you. 🐙 In JUJU’s case: I wanted my own creative space on top of my soon-to-be Mental Health Support Work and freelance work and so I let go of some of my past connections and old friendships in order to focus on my craft and start anew. Sacrifices include: -travel time, family time -money out of my pocket to rent the space But the benefits outweigh the challenges 😅 (another time to share the story) Spend 10-15 minutes to dream, plan and talk about it to a friend and watch what happens next. Why live one life when you can have both? #creativityatitsbest ✌🏽 🧚🏽‍♀️ #scanners #barbarasher #millennialadvice #twentysomething #mentalhealthmelbourne #careerquotes https://www.instagram.com/p/CXfkAzQP0tA/?utm_medium=tumblr

🤙🏽 They say that “You are the average closest to the five humans you spend the most time with…” This can be true to your friendship circle. I’ve dug into some of my favourite Disney movies and would like to share to you the different kinds of friends we can seek and build friendships in our #twenties ✌🏽 JUJU’s wisdom today: 1️⃣ THUMPER Find someone who tells reports you on the news, updates you on what’s happening in the community/neighbourhood and find someone to laugh with you like Thumper 🤣 2️⃣ STITCH When Lilo wished upon a star to meet a friend, she didn’t get what she pictured but life gives you surprises - SURPRISE!!! This is where you let loose and re-live your childhood self 😅 3️⃣ DORY Simple. Find someone who will stick by you to the end. Although it sounds far fetched, know that there will be at least one who won’t talk behind your back and will do what they promised. 4️⃣ JIMINEY CRICKET Ah, anyone listen to our conscience? Well, there are people like Jiminey who can guide you through life. They make your best teachers. 5️⃣ BUZZ LIGHTYEAR And sometimes people like Buzz come in your life and they’re a bit frightening because they seem to be too serious… but know that if you stick through together, you’ll find the universe works in funny ways #buzzandwoody 🧚🏽‍♀️ In our 20’s friends come and go, high school friends move on, new people come along to our work/uni lives… and we are given opportunities to grow, mature and choose who we want to give our energy, eat with and share our lives! This is one of JUJU’s life hack that got me through the past few years. Never too late to seek your squad and meet new people #postlockdown ⭐️ 🐙 Make a wish and go. .•.• #millennialadvice #disneycharacters #friendshipgoals #lifeinyour20s #purposeoflife #mentalhealthhack https://www.instagram.com/p/CW2S-J7v-XK/?utm_medium=tumblr

😌What’s better than earning money? What’s an alternative to a full time work where I can be myself more? Welcome to the alternative life school… Juju calls it the ‘Values Volunteering based Life school’ ✌🏽 You will learn a lot of yourself when volunteering - especially what you will fight for, advocate for, talk about, and feel deeply about… This is part of your WHY. This WHY is your most incredible weapon in your careers/job/self-introduction tool. In the JOURNEY of volunteering… things will unravel and you will find yourself joining and participating in different groups… 🌟Ask yourself: Where do I feel alive, connected, most vulnerable to give my energy and words to? No pressure to make money first. You can work part time, you can have time to play, build momentum with your craft/side projects/hobbie and see the world in different way. Allow it to unfold. This will make your job search easier when you know what VALUES you naturally gravitate to. Who knows— maybe the free time you use will be used to create your own start-up/business. 🐙 Never too late to start now, reach out, grab a coffee with your local community centre worker or friend. ✌🏽✌🏽✌🏽✌🏽✌🏽✌🏽✌🏽✌🏽 #twentiescommunity #localcommunity #wearebrimbank #melbourneyouth #millennialadvice #alternativelifestyle #neurodivergent #existentialcrisis (at Melbourne, Victoria, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CWHhP7DPVEk/?utm_medium=tumblr

🅢🅣🅔🅟 3 - r e - l e a r n ‘RE-LEARN’ is the third step following from re-tune and reflect 👇🏽 🏡Lockdown is the perfect opportunity to un-learn to re-learn or to simple look at past ways of doing, thinking or understanding something or someone and adopting a new way to this. ⭐️Some reflection questions to help this process: 1️⃣What opportunity has #homelife given you to face, work on, practice? Look around. ✌🏽Now that nobody is watching, you might feel that the facade you have been wearing is no longer needed. Be real to yourself. What do you need to re-learn from your past-time/childhood/old days? eg. re-learning how to play that ukulele? 🎶 3️⃣Make a plan. Simple with baby steps outlined. Give yourself sometime for your body, mind and emotions to bring your energy to start visioning, planning and prepare to move - remember, baby steps. #lockdownaustralia #millennialadvice #mentalhealthtips #spiritualgrowth #lifehack #reflectivepractice https://www.instagram.com/p/CS8WZy_hfws/?utm_medium=tumblr
