Have you reached a certain age and realized life hasn’t exactly gone to plan? Are there aspects of your routine that you wish were different? Have you settled into the “I guess this is life” mentality?
It’s not too late to change!
It’s not. We don’t have to call in a mid-life crisis or dwell on the past. We need to pinpoint which part of your life isn’t working for you and the step that will make it amazing.
Are You Thinking With a Clear Head?
Do you need a complete overhaul, or are there some tweaks you could make to start to absolutely love life? Chances are, you’re just in a rut. It’s completely natural, but it doesn’t have to be permanent.
Think about what would make you the absolute happiest? Do you have wanderlust and wish you’d traveled the world more before getting an adult job? Do you regret not trying to be a tennis pro instead of going to college?
While it’s too late to turn back time, you can bring aspects of your dreams into your current life.
Find Out What You Love the Most
If you stare longingly at your friend’s travel photos and daydream about jet-setting, start a travel fund. It can be small, and your goal can be five years from now. Look at the dream vacations you could take, or even talk to a travel agency. Once you have a destination in mind, see what you can do to make that a reality.
Do you need to take some freelancing jobs? Is there money you’re spending that could be reallocated towards a travel budget? Maybe you have some sellable items sitting around that you don’t even like to put some money in the bank. Think about it.
Are you still playing if you think you’ve missed your calling to be a tennis star? It might be too late to go pro truly, but that doesn’t mean you can’t still enjoy the game. Join a rec league where you’re paired up with other racquet enthusiasts and test your skills. Are you more of a coach than a player at this point in your life? Offer to coach the younger generation. You could even make some extra cash giving private lessons.
The point is, it’s not too late until it’s too late. Why not start today?
