Being In Your Twenties


"I never took a day off in my twenties. Not one. And I'm still fanatical, but now I'm a little less fanatical."
 - Bill Gates

From being 20 to 29 years old, you have just finished college or working on your first job already. Its a tough time to decide on things that you would want with your life. Most of the people that are on this age are still having fun and enjoying the time of their lives. Saving or spending money, travelling, having relationships or still wondering what to do.

That's okay. It's your life. You do what you want with yours in your own pace and plans. But the things below are the things you want to avoid whilst in your 20's. Let me tell you that...
  • Don't impregnate or be pregnant. Responsibility of raising a child is tough. By this age, you're quite not ready for this and you might bail out.
  • Don't get married. If you're in a relationship and you're not sure if he/she is the one, then don't get hitched. Enjoy and have other relationships that you can learn and be happy with.
  • Don't be a martyr. The problems of others are not yours to solve. Let them sort it out. Just be there if they need help but not totally acquire the problem especially when it comes to finances.
  • Don't be a criminal. Its not a cool thing when you get incarcerated because of criminal acts. When you get out of it, society will judge you and you might wish that you haven't been released from prison.
  • Don't be in a situation that somebody wants to murder you. Do good and be kind. Nobody will plan to kill you if you do good things to others. And don't break any fights. Usually the peacemaker gets killed accidentally.
  • Earn more money than anyone else. As I have mentioned in my other article, work as hard as you can to have the money and things you want in life. So that you will eventually be happy.
This will help you a lot later on in life. By that time, you're already matured and you will realize that not making those mistakes made you a better person. You can now plan your life, get married and have a family and other things you want to be or have as you get older.

That is because you don't have a problem!

Kapish!
