Hello, my friends
I hope every one of you doing great!
It's been for some time that I really wanted to write down about the most important 25 things that I understand when turning 25 years old. Have been writing a few drafts, today I just combined them and publishing it on my blog.
This writing is only based on my personal experiences, books I read, and thoughts and self-reflections. Also tried to write it in my own words, so please take it well. :)
As you know, each individual has their own way of thinking and life perspective, so I'd like to request rather take those writings as positively and if something useful, go ahead and try on yourself. :)
Alright, here are the most important 25 things that I really understand by the age of 25.
1. Family is the most precious.
I think family is the most loyal group of people to us. They never forget or leave us, only thing they give to us is themselves. Even though we behave rudely or selfish and even to fight with them but after a few moments, they just smile at us and never stop loving.
2. Appreciate all the memories.
It is an amazing feeling that sometimes you'd love to share with others about the places you've been or the people you've met. Certainly it made unforgettable memories to keep those feeling alive in our hearts, so it makes us happy just even remembering those days.
3. Be your own best friend and love yourself.
Most of the time it turns out that our best friend becomes us only, cause we know ourselves well and there is no way to hide anything! Self-love could be started from eating healthy food and improve lifestyle.
4. Respect yourself.
Being honest to yourself is the way you respect. Instead of ignoring or losing yourself, try to respect yourself like you do to others.
5. Give your time to only those whom you love the most and important to you.
We have our important ones including family, parents, siblings, and besties but sometimes we just could not spend our time with them and even not able to express how much we love. It's okay if we can't tell them every day we love, but we should let them know how much we care and respect, love them by our actions.
6. Physical and mental health is super important.
As we know, we will no longer as energetic as young ages, so it is better to give attention to our physical health by start eating healthier food and do some exercises. In order to stay mentally healthy, we should start focusing on positiveness and make our mind way calmer.
7. No way to give your time to those who disrespect, ignore and make you down.
Better to stay away from energy drainers, negativeness, and pull downers. Even though we badly want to be with them, but they don't appreciate and just never willing to understand us.
8. Beautiful memory and experience are way important than money.
Go back in time and think, what was the amazing thing you've had?. Unarguably, it is the memories you've just recalled! It is a lot more precious to have experience and memories of things we want to do once than just having money.
9. Success doesn't mean huge accomplishment.
Success means more like support others and encourage them.
10. Stay energetic, and happy without depending on money.
Stay cool even if you have 0 money in your account (if you read #11,12 then may not experience #10 situation!).
It does not mean you will extremely happy if you have an enormous amount of money. So, your happiness should not only depend on money :)
11. Learn about savings and start saving.
It's good to know and learn about savings, better if you start earlier. Super helpful during rainy days, better to be prepared ahead.
12. Learn about finance, economy and start making smart shopping.
We tend to buy a lot when there are on sale but later it is used rarely. So it's better if we try to reduce unused items by understanding smart shopping.
13. Try lesser depending on any materials
In the wardrobe, many clothes that we don't wear. Just so many items everywhere but few are useful. If things are unimportant, learn to keep them away.
14. Share your knowledge.
When we share, we learn more!
15. Enjoy solitude.
It's always so peaceful to stay with your inner self. I've heard that some people can not stay with themselves even for 10 mins. I think that sounds more like they are uncomfortable or not ready to face their true inner self. Instead, embrace that moment and give yourself some "alone time" by cutting off your social media usage. Encourage yourself to try something which you love to do all by yourself once in a while.
16. Try solo-trip and challenge yourself.
I agree that always going 'solo-trip' is kinda strange. However, once in a year it is a really worthy experience to go for a short nearby trip. It really does help later on to stay strong and energetic.
17. Believe in and courage yourself
Again, one of the important things. "Believe in" does not simply mean "I can do everything" kind of pride. Instead, it is the power to keep yourself up during hardships. In the future, we may face many things but in every failure, if we go down, it is rather difficult to keep up later on.
18. Spark in-out.
It simply means try to spread and share goodness and positiveness to others as well as to your inner self.
19. Master at least one thing
It could your profession, major, education, art or sports, have something special or master at something that anyone can validate.
20. Admit that lack of knowledge and keep exploring.
Stay with curiosity, try to know something more you have a keen interest! Expand your knowledge little by little.
21. If doing any task or assignment, give some time and deliver it with high quality.
Quality always matters. Try your best to deliver any tasks with high quality, as after all your name will be mentioned somewhere around. Better not to give some impression that you just shirk the duty.
22. Try to love anything as it is.
Expectation ruins our emotions, so better not to think some things ahead of time instead love it as it is. It could be a place, people literally anything.
23. Self-exploration
At the age of 25, it is better to know our deep inner self first including some small or big matters, such as what we like, where we like to go and what is the future plan and so on. That will definitely deliver some insights to us like what gives us high satisfaction or fulfillment in our life.
24. Have your dream or purpose
I think it is pretty important to have or at least imagined the ultimate purpose of life, like when we are at the age of 50s or 60s, what could be our lives and how we stay. Such ultimate and further purpose gives us a solid base to stay mentally or physically alive or healthy. Even though, if we face many hardships this could be a strong source of power to get back up.
25. Love, respect nature and mother Earth, realize that we are the tiny bit laying on its ground.
Nature (mother Earth) is the strongest! So wherever we are, love and appreciate and if possible, try to explore it.
The above 25 lists are the most important things that are in my mind and heart. I certainly agree that possibly after 10 or 20 years, some of those lists could be changed or the way I look and think about nature may vary. Hence, I shall review the lists and my thoughts now and then.
