A Letter to the Last Year of My Twenties
I am so excited to start my thirties but it’s hard not to reflect on the totality of my twenties so I wrote myself a letter about the lessons learned and the milestones hit!
Do not create your life around another. You have to be enough for you before you can be it for someone else
There is a difference between making compromises and completely losing yourself to another. It took me awhile to realize that doing things for my husband I didn’t necessarily “want” to do wasn’t losing myself it was apart of being in a non-selfish relationship.
A good leader can shape or sharpen you for the future
There is a difference between a boss and a leader. A boss manages, a leader leads, and supports, and fosters growth. Not all bosses are leaders and you may not realize that until later in life. I was lucky enough to experience this early and it has completely shaped the way I look at work and the workplace.
There’s nothing you can do about the past. All we can do recognize it’s happen and move forward
There is literally no room in life for regrets. They will only weigh you down and influence every other decision in your life. Let go.
Not everyone’s journey is the same. Don’t judge your friends for where they are at on there’s
So many of my friends are at different stages on their path of life and everyone’s path won’t be the same. Don’t look at other’s journey and judge, no matter the situation, you never know what’s going on in a person’s mind or home.
Not all friends are actual friends.
“I sold some tickets to come see my downfall, it sold out in minutes. I saw friends in the front row” - MGK. And that is the truth. True friends are there on the way up and are there on the way down, not one or the other.
