We all make our own choices in life.
Some right and some I won’t say wrong but could have been avoided.
I feel our tolerance level towards our friends’ drops significantly – dealing with their complex needs,pleasing them doesn’t happen anymore.
Mid 20’s and 30’s we had more tolerance – we were over pleasing and over accommodative which also got us into trouble.We also end up attracting wrong people if we are an extrovert or extremely outgoing by nature.
When the friendship is in the initial stage you like the person but then after investing yourself in it you realize it was too early.
As you age you prefer having less number of friends.You only want to invest in friends who have been in your life for a long time.Those relationships also work because we are not into each others’ lives too much.
Offloading some from your life is an important exercise especially before they fully turn into a burden.Some take you for a ride,some drag you into their personal problems and some turn out to be opportunists.
Stop it at the right time.Inner peace is all you want and deserve.
Its not being selfish at all,it’s just self love.It allows us to relax and refresh. While getting older is inevitable we can choose to be wiser in making choices.This should take care of your mental well being.
Dealing with 40 isn’t easy.Age doesn’t remain to be a number for all.
If your mind and body can handle it then nothing can hold you back.
It’s a transition phase and you learn to embrace the changes it comes with.
Today we are lucky as there is both knowledge and technology to guide us sail through smoothly.
Physical health can equally be challenging at this stage.The good metabolism that you once boasted about may just decide to lift its feet up.It doesn’t mean you eat less but you eat better.Care more and also care less – care more about yourself and care less about what people think,shrug off their comments and keep going.
Hope now it’s falling in place 😊.
For some life only begins at 40.They finally taste success and some brave out to follow their passion.
Each one has their own version of midlife.
When you see yourself in the mirror at 40 – you will see how you have evolved from the 20’s to 30’s and got here.
Today you know the world around is not perfect.Its ok to make mistakes big and small.
You also know that your mistakes will not end the world.All these realizations happen because of your past experiences – you know yourself better by now and that’s helps you fix everything.
We learn to say no, to take occasional breaks, and to be honest with others when something isn’t good for us. We learn to put ourselves first.We no longer need frame things to benefit others but instead look at self benefit.
You no more try to fit yourself in a group but look for one that matches you.
You no longer compare yourself with others and you also stop judging others decisions.You took time but finally realized that you don’t have to live the consequences – it’s their decision and they will live it.
Harsh reality at 40 when you see friends lose their parents,siblings.At first it’s a shock then you realize that you’re at that age where this will happen more and more frequently. You realize that if it hasn’t happened yet,it will one day, and probably sooner than you’d like.
Now you know there is no time to waste.Time for bucket lists.
Reconcile any past differences.You stop procrastinating and just want to make things happen.
There are no rules to life,liberate yourself and listen to your heart.
Whatever is left, live your dreams ❤️
