Twenties are a gloriously complicated age. You’re broke, yet you tend to spend, you want to fall in love, yet are afraid of long term commitment; in short, you experience conflicting emotions that rise and fall inside you, like a tornado. Every step, every decision in this age, can make, or break, your tomorrow. Your 20s are literally stepping stones to your 30s and play a great role in shaping the latter up. Read on to find out which are the essential things you should do in your 20s, to build up a rock-hard base for your 30s.
Fall in love. Don’t be scared of experiencing a breakup. If only, it will make you stronger, and when you will find that one true love eventually, you would know its worth.
Live alone, away from the comfort of home. It will make you independent, and responsible. You will be able to assess your strengths and weaknesses.
Go on a solo trip, meet new people, learn a new language. It will filter you up and give you renewed energy to face everything. It might not be one extravagant trip, but a quiet place full of greens should do the trick.
Make your work your passion, and then work as much as you can, day and night, utilising the stamina of youth you have only in your 20s. You will be happy.
Try the thing you were always scared of, and never experienced. Who knows? Maybe one try will give you a lifetime of passion!
Never keep long time grudges against a once dear friend. Take a step forward and make amends. Life is too short for such trivialities.
Invest, and save, bit by bit. Try to manage your expenses. It is tough as this is the age when expenditure is more than the income, but then as you inculcate and develop the habit, it will mature in its full form in your later, and more mature age, for you to reap the rewards.
Nostalgic, yet inspiring, such is the sweet period of the twenties. It is, indeed, innocence, on the verge of going over to wisdom.
