If you fail to focus on building a career in your twenties,you might regret it. If you don’t have as much fun as you should have gotten in your 20s, you might regret it.
If you don’t pay attention to learning new things andgoing for what you really want in your twenties, you might regret it.
The list goes on and on.
Below are some things you should do in your 20s to avoid having regrets in your 30s. Na true yan be dis make you try read and use am better yourself.
1. Live life on your own terms.
Someone said “Don’t do things because you think you “should.” Don’t do what other people tell you to do. Don’t do what society expects you to do. Don’t sit around waiting to start living your life. This life belongs to you and to nobody else. You will not get a chance to do it again. Live it on your terms.” Yes, live your life on your own terms and be passionate about what you do. If you do not live life on your own terms, the truth it you will never be happy.
2. Build a career
It is important to build a career for yourself while you are still young. You can embark on programming projects, online businesses, home improvement, classes, etc. The time to go about it is now, when you are still in your 20s. This is because it is something that’s VERY EASY to put off, and before you know it, the shorter time periods add up to years, and will get to a decade.
3. Don’t have kids you can’t support
Don’t have kids because you think everyone else is having kids, or because you like the thought of having a child. Wear condoms, use birth control, have a child when you plan to –children are expensive and you are responsible for them for two decades.
4. It’s your life, own it. Take sole responsibility for it.
Don’t blame it on luck, other people, circumstances, it’s all down to you. People are used to playing the blame game. Don’t play life on automatic, become conscious of your decisions and choices. Our brains are very good at deceiving us into thinking we are making conscious decisions when in reality
most of the actions we take daily are habits good or bad we’ve developed. Learn not to care what other people think of you. The truth is that everybody is too busy thinking about themselves that they are not thinking about you. So if you make a mistake, don’t get all caught up in your head about what others are thinking – because nobody really cares. Discover your self-limiting beliefs and find a way to remove them and replace them with empowering beliefs.
5. Make exercising a lifestyle
If you don’t engage in any form of exercise you may end up regretting it. Your body is the one thing you live with for the rest of your life. Take care of it. Years of poor eating habit with no exercise will live your body in a shape you won’t like.
6. Look after your teeth, skin and hair
Some people don’t give a damn about their body. That is really bad. You should learn to pamper your body. Brush your teeth and see your dentist at least twice a year. Wear a sunscreen and sleep well, take breaks and rest when you need it.
7. Quit smoking and cut down on your alcohol intake, smoking is dangerous and injurious to your health. Cancer isn’t fun and you don’t need to give it any more chances.
8. Call your loved ones
You get to lose people on a daily basis. It’s best to appreciate them while they are still alive. They’d probably like to hear from you once in a while. Give them a call.
9. Save and invest
Don’t spend it all. Putting money away for old age – or even a safety buffer – is never a bad thing. Compound interest is also a powerful thing and it gets better the younger you start.
Are there things you would have done differently when you were younger or do you have different views or opinion from the ones above, you can leave your
