33 Bite-Sized Lessons I Learned in My 20s
Early Birthday Post
This month I am celebrating my birthday. It’s not a big deal and I rarely liked celebrating my birthday while growing up.
I was felt amused when I see people getting really pumped about their birthday and start planning like a month before. For me it’s just a normal day and do an audit of past year on:
- What I did good
- What went wrong
- What I can improve
A lot can change in a year and you have all the power to change your life. In last one year I learned it’s okay to think different or for the matter to be different when everyone is trying to fit it.
1- Reality is always better than your thoughts.
2- What you think you become.
3- Let go of the people who aren’t genuinely happy seeing you succeed.
4- Effective communication is the key to everything.
5- You have all the power to change your life.
6- It’s okay to take a break and start all over again.
7- Don’t hesitate to something you never tried before.
8- You grow rich when you seek new experiences, not material things.
9- That feeling of climbing uphill and fighting for success against all odds? That doesn’t ever go away. But don’t worry, you’ll learn to embrace it.
10- Sometimes all you need is to take a first step.
11- Build Courage to show your vulnerability.
12- It’s okay to be sensitive and emotional.
13- Everything will make sense someday. So, for now, laugh at your mistakes. Keep going. And keep reminding yourself everything really does happen for a reason.
14- Your time is the biggest currency. Don’t just spend casually.
15- Invest money smartly and diversify your funds.
16- Don’t let negativity stunt your growth. I’ve never met a hater doing better in life than the person they’re hating on.
17- Take care of your health — physical and mental. Both are equally important
18- If some situation or people making you uncomfortable, leave it.
19- To make any major decision, sleep on it and revisit.
20- You have a lot to love in your self. Cherish them.
21- Your work or career is not your whole identity.
22- Take adequate break from social media. Nothing changes in a day or a week. It’s all in your mind.
23- Go out, take vacation, personal time off. Live your live.
24- Explore your surroundings, Sometime all you need is look around.
25- Keep hustling: Every day, you’re working toward your dream, even if you don’t know what that dream looks like yet.
26- One moment, one introduction, one lesson, one decision can completely change the course of your life. Never say no to an opportunity.
27- Trust your guts and feeling.
28- Write more. Photograph more. Journal more. Your creativity is a gift to be cherished.
29- It’s okay to not know what you’re doing. Nobody does. If you’re making a positive impact on other people’s lives, you’re on the right path.
30- You don’t have to figure it all out on your own. Ask for help.
31- Do things before you’re ready. Better finished than perfect. Always.
32- Go out of your way to help people achieve their dreams. One day you’ll need their help in achieving yours.
33- You have to believe in yourself before anyone else does.
