      I think it's a decision to finally choose yourself-choosing to be the healthy, happy, and healed version of yourself. When you choose yourself, others will recognize it, and I hope it leads to many great opportunities in life. We all have a little child within us, and I'm letting her come out, shine, and be playful. To be my authentic self and not let fear take over, it has to start with small steps: self-care, little rewards, and building confidence by achieving small tasks daily. In this way, I will also learn how to raise a healthy kid of my own, as I’m a single mom.

But not all is wasted. My twenties is an example of how not to live life. And I had to pay the price in time, something I’ll never get back.

      Struggling with the so much. I’m 25, single, and seeing all my friends move away and get engaged or at least in serious relationships. I want a relationship so bad and have done so much work on myself, it’s frustrating seeing others with something I want so bad. I don’t like my job and it feels like life has just turned into the same thing over and over and I don’t find nearly the joy that I used to. Idk I feel so incredibly stuck but I know I’m not. I just have to decide to change and get better for myself. It starts with being comfortable on my own which is my biggest struggle, I fill all my time with friends or a distraction from being alone, even though I’ve lived alone for over a year now I’m still afraid to actually spend time alone and feel like I’m just wasting away my life and prime of my 20s. I just need renewed excitement and hope in my life.

    i used 18 minutes of today to learn this video 😆 def was very validating to hear a lot of things I'm already doing be mentioned in the video.
    I'm 22, and though I still live with my parents and unemployed at the moment, I've been living with full intent for almost 3 years in helping out with parents businesses and perfecting my own craft. If I compare myself to my past self, the tremendous growth really is insane.
    For me the thing that worked the best, that was also in the video, was to work backwards.
    Set a goal, to achieve this goals, I'd need to hit these targets, break those targets down to each day, break each day down to working blocks. Freakin awesome sauce.

    What a wonderful way to remind ourselves that the only thing we can control is our actions and reactions. Thank you for sharing your wisdom and experience. Intentionality has been a key driving principle I live by daily. Combined with Stoicism, I think I became a better person. It started from within, self-love, appreciate and for my spouse unconditionally, switch careers, speak publicly/social media, drop 15% in weight to be healthy, improve relationship with my parents, sleep well, got comfortable with letting go of acquaintances and focusing on 2 friends and my family, became a sourdough baker, resumed 30km jogging weekly, and just more emotionally intelligent towards people. I still need to work on building my craft in the new industry, develop relationships, improve my sense of compassion, public speaking, listening, and so much more. Subscribed ❤

    Tip 19 - Don't fear failure. Fear regret & 14 - Not everyone will like you. These 2 really resonated with me because I feel like im in a season of my life where I'm changing, shedding my old self to grow into someone better and by doing so I've set out goals and envisioning what I want. But what I want comes with risks that I have to be willing to take. I've always been a risk taker because I rather live my life with more regrets taking action, than being inactionable because I want to tell my future kids and past self about all the crazy stories and the roller coaster of a journey my life was. But I also sometimes am binded by the perception of others and especially on myself for not being where I want to be. But I believe that being patient and keep pushing through if you have the will to endure the hardships of the journey you plan to go will be the main factor to getting where you need to be

    I turned 27 last week and it has been very hard to look back at my life not knowing where my twenties have gone. I feel like I haven’t achieved anything meaningful and I’ve been stuck at a 9-6 for the last 3 years and a half going into 4. I feel like my best years are gone and my time is ticking before I’m out of my twenties. I want nothing more than to leave my current job because I’m not passionate and I’m working for someone else’s dream and not my own, getting home when the sun is almost going down and watching my stay at home dad with dementia get older and not being able to spend more time with him. I have no direction about my future or what I want to build, what my gifts or talents are. I feel like the years are going by in a blink of an eye and I get overwhelmed at the thought of not having an answer, and not having a direction that gives me purpose and time freedom, while being challenged with getting out of the bad habits that keep me stuck further more.
