Life never stops teaching. The very second after taking a birth, you start assimilating the guidelines of this wonderful gift of life. And during the entire voyage, you grasp & learn different verities of life. Having crossed 2 decades from the time you arrived in this world, many aspects of life which you presumed start to refute. Today I'm gonna list out 5 important things you realize when you're in your 20s.
1. Job is not a full stop to your money problems
We study a lot in school, even more in the college with a determined aim to get a handsome job in an MNC. And then we expect all our money affiliated problems to get solved. Little did we knew that getting a job was just the beginning & soon the race to earn more & more starts. It gets difficult to reach to the point when you're satisfied with what you earn. Things gets nasty when you get married & there are people dependent on you.
2. Rejection is not necessarily the worst thing
It definitely isn't. Whether it's a rejection of a job application or of a person. These are the times when you will learn about yourself more than ever. A declined job offer can teach you all the skills you need to get through it. One when you get dumped by a person, you get a chance to realize the difference between a good & a bad relationship.
3. Life is not a milestone race
It isn't. As I mentioned earlier, it's a voyage. An expedition in which you dig into unplumbed waters. There is no finish line. Though there is, that you'll be dead one day but you're gonna reach it anyway. Competition has been injected in our blood since we took our first step in the schools. But, life is in fact more about finding & exploring yourself rather than running behind the achievements. All you can do is have fun, make friends, share grieves, joy & pray that the journey was a memorable one.
4. Being self centered is not bad
Let's not confuse self centered with selfish. Everybody needs to be a little self centered. There are times when it is important to think about & give yourself a priority. Being self centered is not bad, but hurting others during this process is.
5. "I'll do it later" never works
This will be the most busiest phase of your entire life. Ample of things to do - job, career, dreams, friends, family to list a few. The most troublesome task is choosing one among them to be kept aside in the locker of "I'll do it later". And, as many of us might have experienced, the key to that locker never find it's way back.
