thanks bruh
for 7, they're talking about looking at contracts carefully, and considering all the scenarios that can happen, even if there's only a 1% chance
31. Start sentences with capital letters
32. End sentences with full-stops.
@@Gretchaninov 33. no one gives a shit
34. you didn't end the 31st sentence with a full stop
@@paper2222 That was deliberate, stupid. The rule hadn't been introduced yet.
Good advises. But as a 60 yo I want to add: have something in your life that you do just for fun, something you just play around with, something you _don't_ strive to be good at but do just for the joy of it. And if one day you don't enjoy it anymore, leave it behind without regret, be happy for the things you learned, and find something new to be your "play ground".
Thank you I love this!
Yes! This is a good one. There are people who will push you to get a job doing something as soon as you're halfway decent at it. My sister tried to push me to do art as a job, and my mom pushed me to do music for a job. The problem, I told them, is that I love doing those things, and being forced to do it for 8-10 hours a day will completely suck the joy out of the only things that bring me any joy. Not everything good in life has to be for profit
Good one! Agree 100%
Yes, I agree! I started learning flute a few years ago because I missed playing music in my high school and university days (I'm 33). I never play for anyone else, I just go to my weekly lesson and honestly don't practice that much, but I really enjoy my lessons and I don't have any goal to perform with anyone, I just enjoy going as a hobby and I don't see anything wrong with that! I'm not striving to master the skill or anything, it's just for fun and I like it that way!
Agreed - I paint. I paint worse than a 5 year old but it's so much fun! And as long as I love it, I'll keep doing it, regardless of how bad it looks xD (I'm smart enough not to make a career out of it though - not that I'd want that anyway). I'm happy to have it just for me.
Biggest lesson: you can practice 40 hours a day but there will always be a 4 year old Asian kid who’s better than you…
real
Have you watched the whole video? 😂😑
I am an Asian kid
@@DontReadMyProfilePicture.283 ok
i read it @@DontReadMyProfilePicture.283
I'm a 71 yo fan. Can confirm these are great life lessons. Makes me think of those times I wasted on unimportant things and not doing what was necessary to create the good. We live and learn. And you guys are so damn funny. You have not squandered your talent. 😊 wishing you many good years ahead.
Great to have the stamp of approval from someone with more than double their experience. We all make mistakes but as you say, as long as we learn from them it's all good.
Best wishes to you 😊
@@MissTwoSetEncyclopedia Nice of you. Same to you. 🙂
Yes these are great tips!
curious to know, what is the most valued life lesson you learned in life so far?
@@springthemis For me, it's know yourself. Trust when something doesn't feel right and speak up. At this point , I choose what I want in my life and it's what makes me happy. Getting rid of toxicity, wherever it comes from, helps. Of course, following TS should be tip #1😀
I am 81, so am allowed to say this: You are two great kids and very fine musicians, and I think you're remarkable, wise and wonderful. 💕💕
I am sprinting tovards 30 so I added my "I Wish I Knew Before 30"
1. Do not gossip. Tell good or neutral things about person or, if there is a problem, talk with that person.
2. Do not think "What others think of me" especially those who are not the closest to you. Usually "others" don't think about you at all. So, be proud at skills which you have, do stuff and hobbies which you like, wear clothes which are comfoetable for you and don't be apologetic about that.
So very! Both of these. Gossip gets to to ears of the one who is being gossiped about, good to keep in mind. And yes, life is too short to always do what others think is good, just do your thing - related to "just do it"- and you'll be ok.
Excellent additions!
That’s so true!! I often think that, like do what makes you confident and happy :)
Love these!!!!
As a 31-year-old, I wholeheartedly agree.
this is why so many people stick with you, you dont just want to become better musicians you also working on becoming better humans... and we here to learn.
Eddy and Brett= relationship experts
If I meet a 30+ year old guy who is still the best friend of someone he met when he was 13, I'll make sure to listen everything he has to tell about friendship and relationships in general.
@@MissTwoSetEncyclopediafr:)
But they do not have girl friends
@@erwandiping6167 You don't know that. Them not talking about their private lives doesn't mean they don't have one.
My Father at 90 would tell us you'll live longer if you learn something new every day. One of those new things was when he was 96, we both built a Bowed Zither together which neither of us had ever done before. He died on his feet laughing and joking with family when he was almost 100 years old after enjoying a full day tending his garden and fruit trees.
If you don't change then you stop improving.
Best!
As a 13 year old, this advice is super helpful❤ twoset are like my internet big brothers
Wise old men for young guys in their 30"s! I'm 68 and these are helpful reminders even at my age.
Me in my 40s, still here for the good advice lol
Yeah, me too, 43 now, still struggling with or still unaware of most of these. 🤪
Me too and I’m 65!!
Same!
Then you are following rule 19. never stop learning
Yeah, learning is forever, like it was said 👍
brett is just eddy's older brother you cant convince me otherwise
They don't look alike at all. 🤔
Honestly when I first started watching their videos I legit thought they were brothers 😅
i mean energy wise @@paunitka7 😭
In my head Eddie is older than Brett.
@@DontReadMyProfilePicture.283:0
Guys, yr early thirties can be the best time of your life. Yr smarter and more seasoned than your twenties, but you still have your whole life ahead of you. Take it from me. It can be worth cherishing.
When I first began watching you(a year ago) I actually thought Eddy was like 20 and Brett like 22.Its crazy how both of you look so young.BTW love from Croatia and I hope you someday come to perform here!
Same. All this time I thought they were in their twenties, and then this video pops out and I sit here like 🤨

❤ Thanks for your summary
Thanks!
god i'm so weak to these kinds of supportive, reassuring, loving and wholesome vibe videos like why am i getting emotional
yall are too sweet
I know…I got emotional when Eddy said that time never comes back…
The first story they told is so funny, cuz I did the same thing when twoset came to Boston for the gong cha promo 😆 I had my bubble tea, then I saw twoset walk by, and I was like, "oh my gosh, that's Brett and Eddy, right there, two feet from me" so I just stopped everything and booked it down the hallway to see them and ask for a picture 😆 I'm so glad I did because Brett was sooo nice! 😭 I love u guys, thanks for all that u do!
What about Eddy? If he was quiet, could that be shyness? I'm just curious!😌
When I got there, only Brett was at the end of the hallway. I think Eddy had gone into one of the staff rooms or out the back door already, I did tell Brett to say hi to him for me though 😁
@@user-zc6oo3sq1y Ah, i see! Anyway, you're very lucky😌
"Do speak up!" is soooo important for any relationship! Like, one hears communication is one of the most important things in any relationship and it sounds tacky, but it's just so true! Bottling things up is like making a time bomb which gets bigger and more powerful over time until it explodes into your relationship's face.
HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY🎉
Happy birthday
@@DontReadMyProfilePicture.283Ok I won't:)
Happy Birthday y'all!! (Also I made the likes 40 😯)
These kind of videos are why I love TwoSet violin sooo much. Not only are they funny, not only are they excellent violinists but they're also serious, educational and down to earth. They are so honest and they really do say things as they are. I just feel like they are so real when they turn the camera on. While watching this video I really felt as if I was being teached personally. This is literally a conversation I'd have with my parents. They really seem to care about their viewers. This is the great use of the internet for me, such good quality content. They are truly inspirational, not only as artists, but also as people. That's just amazing in today's society.
BLURRY CAMERA IS BACK!!!
This should be point No. 31 on the list : "Learn how focus works on a camera" 😅
@@MissTwoSetEncyclopediaBut they haven't yet learned that lesson. Maybe next year.
@@MissTwoSetEncyclopedia it’s a part of the channel at this point
Aye, in and out of focus. Wouldn't be a TwoSet vid otherwise, eh!
@@elissahuntIt's gonna be on the 40 lessons before turning 40 video I'm afraid...
It took me 40 years to realize a certain person was a bad friend and to finally break free of her. She lied to me for years but when she stabbed me in the back, in public, I reached my breaking point. That was 13 years ago and I’ve not spoken to her since. She never apologized. I haven’t missed her for one second. Surround yourself with true friends.
Grandpas sharing their wisdom 😔 also Happy birthday to both of you!
Really really missed these sitting-down-and-chatting-away type of long videos🤧 thank you brett and eddy for everything honestly, I'm preparing to try and get into medschool and you guys are practically keeping me afloat since the beginning of my preparation 😂 these are such valuable, practical pieces of advice too
I’m slightly over 30 too and have same thoughts as you guys, I think it’s really beautiful how time changes us and makes us wiser and more accepting of ourselves. It’s so nice to see sincere UA-camrs, I feel like it’s a rare thing in social media today 🙏
As a teenager, I didn't even know that back not-hurting is a thing. I saw back pain as a natural state of things. So... Health is the most important!
I turn 73 this spring… you are wise young men. Bravo!
Biggest Lesson: L I N G L I N G
@twosetviolin am I right???
As someone who has a performance in two days, #26 really changes my perspective and makes me more optimistic
I could listen to them talk for hours and not get bored of it !
I want them to have time to upload their podcast 😭
@@yurineivilleromartinez1311yesss! It’s been a while since they’ve uploaded on their podcast :(
This might be my new favourite video. Thanks for everything, guys!
Good advice! Between the lines it is clear that you have had to deal with quite a few unpleasant experiences. Every coin has two sides. Everyone who is successful has to deal with the less beautiful side of humanity. Unfortunately, that's part of it.
Watch this video again every now and then, Eddy and Brett. I am 63 and I can tell you from experience that you will forget some lessons and the Universe will present it to you again.
Dead serious advice with very silly headbands. Very on brand and super cute.
Contracting is SO important!!
Look at it as mutual respect. Both of you tell the other what you want to do for them, and you together figure out who takes responsibility for fringe cases.
Most people who do not want to contract with you will expect more. Even in an employment contract setting, if your employer comes to you with a "formal update" understand what changes!
All these are so important.
I worked for a big corp where we had an updated policy on company assets, and the update was that they formalized reckless damages in contract.
We had to go "ok what is reckless, and what is not reckless", legal was just going "you know reckless", we started giving examples and basically if its not a meteor strike YOU are reckless.
So obviously that "formalization" needed toning down.
A very happy 31st birthday to

My birthday is today, and I'm turning 70. I'll second what the guys said even after 30, there are still lessons to learn.
Happy birthday! 🎉
Happy Birthday!
Along the lines of #5, if you do not complain, nothing will ever improve or change. So stop thinking complaining is wrong, distasteful, or bad. If you are miserable, or see something making people miserable, point it out to people that can fix it (or do it yourself if you can). I spent too much of my life not doing so... now people thank me for it because things improve for everyone.
I'm 27 so I'm gonna add the most important two lessons I've learnt in my whole life so far.
1: Be yourself even if it makes you different. Due to the area I grew up in, how I look, and my family background I had a weird triple-identity where I was local to the area but my family was from the other side of the planet and even in our native area I didn't look like everyone else. So I had three groups that I was a part of, but I never fit in perfectly with any of them. Naturally, I tried to play into each of the groups to fit in more, but I think people could always see that it was a character to some extent. It was only after I got sick of it and just decided to be only who I am that I started to find people who liked me for who I am, and most importantly I stopped feeling like an imposter. I fit in only when I accept that I am different from everyone else. People respect the authenticity of it.
2: Know your own intentions and motivations. When you feel a certain way or you want to make a decision, think about exactly why that is. I can say with 100% confidence that every regret I have is because I didn't challenge myself before doing or saying something. Maybe it was something I said when I was angry. Maybe it was something I did when I wasn't thinking clearly. My biggest regret is actually because I did and said things that I THOUGHT were the normal, socially acceptable things to do in the situation. That leads back into the "be yourself, don't act a character because you don't even know the script" thing.
Also a bonus one! If you're anywhere younger than 22 (maybe younger, maybe older), realize that your decisions are more likely than not flawed beyond what you can imagine. There's experiences that you're going to go through that will feel completely devastating and extremely unfair. You will get through them, and you will have a better understanding of the world afterwards. If someone who you trust and respect (maybe parents, teachers, or whoever else) tells you something that you don't like or seems mean, ask them to explain why they think that. They might have gone through the exact same thing and are trying to guide you through the minefield in the least painful way. Some people are actually just dicks, but consider it, at least. You can be wrong, and sometimes someone shifting your perspective just one inch can make you see the massive hole you were about to walk into.
Thank you for those eye-openers! Your first point and bonus are things that I’ve been learning the hard way myself. Like you, but for different reasons, I’ve also spent my life feeling ostracized and different from the people I was surrounded by. And learning to stop feeling bad about my own differences was one of the hardest things I’d ever done and it took me through some major shifts in my mental health. But I’ve never felt more at peace with myself than I feel now. And even though I still revert sometimes, I really love who I’ve become.
And that bonus is definitely something that I’m coming to realize currently. I’m still in college and only 21, I’ll be 22 in a few days, but I feel like most of the decisions I’ve been making are going to put me through hell when I’m older. I don’t know what the future holds but all I can do is hope that I’m doing the right things and keep moving forward
Hello 2 set I am a 13 year old double bass player and I just got asked for a second audition for Juilliard pre-college hopping to get it and thank you for always making videos your so funny and you have given me so much inspiration
LONG VIDEO?! LET ME ENJOY THIS MOMENT
I love how my eyes only focused on the background. Oopsie, that's the camera-san thing 😆😆
Dear Twoset, I really enjoy this episode. I always enjoy this type of content, and will treat this like the second episode of Twoset Talks 😂. I am 15 years older than you but thank you for always teaching me things and inspiring me. I do agree with these life lessons which I have learned in my life as well. Two things stood out for me : 1) Speak up & 2) Pursue your dreams. I am actively doing these two and am reaping so much meanings and benefits in my life. My late husband died suddenly two years ago at 57 and yes, I do very much realised that we may not have much life to waste.
Perform as much as you can.
I immediately heard Ray in my head go: That's why you should practice with tonic, where you play for people in your practice room. ❤
It ain't a Twoset video if they aren't out of focus. 😅😂❤
How time flies! You guys turned into 30s already! When I first know you, you were both 20s and young and brave. I always remembered you guys live at Colburn School. I liked your accompanist too. You greeted the audience, as if you knew everyone. It was lovely memories and I’ll always treasure them in my heart.
I may never have known him but as a parent I truly feel your dad continues to be incredibly proud of you Eddy. Happy birthday mate!
I love twosets new background but the camera loves it more.
As someone turning 40 this year, agree with all of this and will also add: listen to your gut. You don’t have to blindly follow it if it’s not a split second decision you have to make, but generally, you won’t go wrong listening to your gut if it sends you a warning because that is your brain’s way of telling you that something about the situation reminds it of a bad situation you were in before. The good sort of feeling is less reliable because our brains are better attuned to avoiding risk than predicting an outcome (naturally).😊
I need those cute headbands!!! Come on twoset apparel!! And thank you for these insightful and tips…this is why the twoset community loves you guys…we become better musicians..and people..thank you❤
Taking this is TwoSet Talks episode #2 😂
Seriously though, as a person closer to 40 than 30, all of these ring true. Thanks for speaking honestly about things ☺️
Thanks for teaching a 60+ year old a few things!
Me too!
This video got me to finally send a scary email that I'd been deliberately ignoring for a week lmao
Here it's still March 22 but anyway HAPPY BRITHDAY EDDYYYYY🎉🎉🎉
Several Brett staring at Eddy moments in this video. What these 2 people havebetween them is so beautiful...hope they cherish it forever
You are both very wise for your age (signed Gen Xer who thinks 32 is very very young)
You're not wrong. Hehe 🤭
- sincerely, another Gen Xer 😊
The one about friends I like. As the American comedian Rich Hall said "A good friend will help you move house, a great friend will help you move a body. I have 3 great friends."
Great video, thank you! I agree with everything but 22. I'd rather say "Do what you need to do to feel ready". And by "ready" I don't mean perfect, but well prepared, confident, realistic, doing your best an be okay with it :)
I agree with it in the sense of "If you've done all that you could to prepare, accept the results". For example, I never feel ready, because you could always do better. But if I've done everything to practice and prepare, the result will be whatever the result is. Feel bad for not preparing, feel bad about the parts you ignored, not the mistake you tried so hard to avoid.
man you know you're getting older when you start actually paying attention during these "lessons i've learned in x years" videos...
thank you for the fruitful advice uncle brett n eddy
(- -) (_ _)
So glad they satisfied my curiosity about what figures and books they have on their shelves! 😂 But seriously,
thank you for those stories, because they really help bring meaning to the life lessons. Great tips for everyone, even if you're much older than 30. Happy Birthday month to both of you!
Not me being surprised that they are thirty already as if I hadn’t started watching them in middle school and now I’m bouta graduate college
I like the more mature content. It reflects well on your audience because I've literally grown from being a child to an adult watching you two.
I might just watch this everyday because I'm sort of struggling in my 20s and your tips are actually very helpful
Great advice + cute headband = perfect combination 😂
I’m am 52 and they’re so right. About all this stuff
Usually I don’t comment much, but talking about moment 08:50, as a girl who lost her father at very young age, I feel you Eddy, and I feel sorry for you. And you are absolutely right. And Brett’s reaction to this is so obvious, for me it all says I’m sorry bro, I know it hurts. Because I saw so many times such reactions from people around me when I told that I lost my father as a kid. Anyway thank you for opening up a little bit and telling such deeply private things about yourself. You need some courage to be able to talk about such things and look a bit vulnerable. And thanks for such warm video ❤ love what you’re doing and you guys genuinely look like really good friends, this is such a bless ✨
Hard to believe Eddy and Brett are already in their 30s! They look so young, but professional! Keep it up guys!!!
Wait, I thought both of you guys were 22-25. That's madness. Appreciate the life advice.
Guys, Thanks for this. I have 4 adult kids and I'm sending this to all of them (even though they are not musicians, it applies to everything). I appreciate your spirit, humor, humanity, and even though I'm a lot older (70!) I will be applying these to my life
"There's nothing that quite reminds you of your limited time than your parent passing away".
My parents are still healthy and alive but I also remember feeling this sense of urgency when I realized how old they were becoming.
Both of them had me later in there lives so it gets me quite anxious.
Thanks for sharing your story with us.
TwoSet. Happy Birthday
The power of saying nooo, or if you're in Australia, the power of saying naaoeu.
The comment about tone and sound is right on, but there’s also something to be said for life experience. Your tone/sound just gets richer over time, and thats something that you learn as you get older, too.
I love this video so much! I have tears in my eyes while watching it, as I think about all the pains that you must have been through so that you can learn all these things, and you are smiling while telling the stories... Bro all the things you guys've mentioned in your video, I just, ahhhhh, I hope it's can be a conversation between you and me, so that you can see me nodding and agreeing and telling you guys I understand or I've been there or this is useful, and most importantly, you guys are doing great😭😭😭 Eddy, you make magnificent sound on your violin! I've been to both of your concerts in Singapore, seating at different locations of the concert hall, and your violin sings beautifully all the time (not saying that Brett's not, but just i feel like i have to say this to Eddy, if he ever read this). You guys are only turning 30 yet you've already gone through so many things, learned so many lessons, and reached so many milestones. Yet there are times when I still peak a bit of you guys in your early twenty😢 I really want to tell you guys in person that you are doing great, both in making music and in promoting classical music. I'm so glad to see that you guys are in a very healthy mindset! I learned so much from you guys, ever since I started watching you a long time ago. I love you guys dearly, I sincerely hope that I can still leave comments under your videos ten years later. Love you!!!
Remember, if you can make mistakes slowly you can make mistakes quickly
Brett and Eddy and Sophie, your performance in Amsterdam was GREAT. When i saw the concert hall, i thought...this is the music family you yourself have created. I was so, so happy. And this was only in Amsterdam! Thanks for speaking up about the things you have learned. You are friends as well as teachers. And performers. ❤❤❤❤❤
i'm only a couple years younger than brett and eddy, and a lot of these lessons are either ones that i've also arrived at the hard way, or ones that i'm on the journey to accomplishing. as someone who's watched twoset since their facebook days, and seeing brett and eddy grow over the years while i was also growing as a person myself, watching this one video almost feels like they are internet-big-brother-friends reassuring us that we're doing alright in life. super proud of how far they've come!
I totally understand how losing a parent at a young age can influence your behavior. I’m guessing it’s what drove Eddy into accepting risk. You do realize life is short and you might as well give it a try. You stop looking long term. It actually helps shape your entire life. I wonder what Brett’s big motivation has been, to get him to take the risks with Eddy.

Ling Ling connections ✅️
Love, trust and respect yourself. When you do that then you will quickly learn who to love, trust and respect. I love these guys.
When you're a fish and have to climb, of course it's gonna terrible!
Sensei Yang's wisdom always surprises me! For real, whenever he talks about more serious things, the both of them, I'm amazed about the amount of experience they already have in life in gerneral although being very young! And yes, you guys are still young considering what you've achieved, how many (young) people have started to love classical music because of you unlocking a whole new world for us! You guys rock!!!
You guys always have good life advice! (I want more lol) Hearing it from you, someone that people look up to, makes it even more effective in driving it home, so thank you for sharing it so generously! And it shows that you're not just creative entertainers, but wise teachers as well. Such well-rounded people! Also, 0:06 😆😭
HBD TwoSet!! Been watching you guys since 80k subs and have since followed in your footsteps. Cheers to us both bridging the gap between classical music and mainstream media!!!
Btw, I like the title of this video a lot! It's not the cliché "things you should know", which to me, sounds a bit arrogant. Ahhh all these small details always make me love you guys more😭😭😭
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! Maybe you guys don't know how much you mean to everyone, you inspire so many people 🥰🥰 So grateful to you both, you are the best!!
True friends can be counted on 1 hand.
When something looks too good to be true it is too good to be true 100%
Trust your instinct, if you feel sus about someone, somthing, going somewhere, don’t go. Your litle inner voice can often be a warning to peer pressure.
Live your dream, don’t dream your life.
Be kind,life in every breathe

Happy birthday to both of you! Take it from an old guy: 30 is nothing! At your age, you can still climb Mount Everest if you want to! Anyway, thanks for years and years of wonderful videos and for being so real, enthusiastic, funny and educational at the same time!
Thanks for sharing your wisdom with us Brett 老師 and Eddy 老師!! I'm a younger person and I feel so inspired, not just for music but for other things too. Can I share some of my favorite quotes about life? _"Everything good and bad is just one moment in life, (virtues) of the person are more important than his professional achievements. We came to this life to be human, not (profession like teacher/musician) but to be human first of all. We should cherish spiritual values and human qualities."_
_"For some people, material values are more important than anything, for others it's the moral values. You need to determine what you actually want for yourself... I'm still learning, because life is a continuous learning process..."_
_"It is important to retain who you are always. We cannot lose our character, wherever you may be. (no matter what your profession is)"_
- Dimash Kudaibergen
Everyone facing struggles in life, don't give up!! just because you fail a class or something doesn't mean you're a failure/unworthy, you are important!! Mistakes help us grow and become better people. Love you all 💖💖💖
"Our first risk was we didn't study medicine" 😂
Good lessons here, guys! I'm glad you learned these things by 30 and not by 60. Life is good!
Looking forward to 60 tips when you're 60.
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. Wish I'd seen it when I was your ages... 40 years ago!
Thank you so much for the lovely advice / conversation. I don't play a musical instrument often so I spun a bit of the advice into my own terms, for example the #14, how to make a good sound, for me meant how to translate my thoughts clearly & positively to my loved ones. Also, here's a numbered list of the advice headlines:
1. It never hurts to ask
2. Know yourself
3. Don't be afraid to take [smart] risks
4. Watch out for people who are too agreeable
5. Do speak up (helps your relationships)
6. Actions speak louder than words
7. Contracts! (make them, keep them, read them, etc. )
8. Cherish those around you
9. Don't waste time (very sorry to hear about your loss, really accurate nothing wakens you up like losing a parent)
10. Think for yourself
11. The best liars are ones that lie to themselves
12. Never sacrifice your health
13. Perform as much as you can
14. How to make a good sound
15. Be around people who lift you up
16. Writing is really good
17. The world can change quickly
18. Routines and habits are really important
19. Never stop learning
20. No such thing as a dumb question
21. People aren't always how they appear online
22. You're never going to feel ready
23. Keep your morning free
24. You will change
25. Be present
26. Learn to savor discomfort
27. Think long term
28. Challenging your own assumptions
29. The power of saying NooOooOoo (golden nugget: don't let people steal your time)
30. Learn to appreciate those that are with you and don't chase those that aren't gonna be with you (+ don't focus on the one negative thing out of many positive things)
Very thought provoking and sincere, thanks for sharing!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY EDDYY!!! 🎉🎉
I definitely agree with 16th lesson!
Regards,
Author-to-be
(of course i agree with many more, i.e speaking up)
13:30 for anyone who wants to know what that particular lesson was.
This is so cute. I’m 55. Being old at 30? 😂 At 50-60, then the body is really crumbling down (and now someone in the 90s can laugh at my comment 😁). Seriously, I too had a crisis around 30. :-)
and you are a lot “older”, more mature than I was when in your age. 😂
This video dropped right when Im in difficult situation and trying to make important decisions. these tips really made sense, and some of them really hit home in terms of the mistakes I made. This video actually sorta validated all these mistakes, like "it's ok to make mistakes" and it really makes me feel better to know that everyone out there has these problems as well, and that I'm not alone. On a side note, those headbands are adorable 💗💗 Oh, and happy birthday Eddy!!!
