You are 35. What have you stopped believing in that you totally believed in when you were 25?
Hard truths!
Not 35, actually currently 25 but some of these seems counter-intuitive to what I would have expected to hear/read from videos asking older fellows to give advice to the younger ones.
Looks do matter, I think most of the folks in their 25 think like that.
Money > Intelligence, again most of us growing in the social media which is tuned towards hustling kind of believe it.
I’m 30. When I was 25, I thought that since I have a fancy degree, I am intelligent and talented compared to those who don’t have it. Now, I’m seeking dropouts, folks from tier 3 colleges killing it, earning 2-3 lakhs per month, settled abroad where as I am on bench in TCS.
When I was 25, I thought that since I’ve worked hard in college, I might not have to work hard anymore. That attitude has screwed up my career and at this moment, I’m extremely grateful for having a job.
When I was 25, I thought that it’s okay if I chill for a couple of years as I have a fancy degree and have worked hard in college. Now I’ve realised that had I upskilled, worked Hard and switched during the great resignation, I would have been in a good place in my career and pay.
When I was 25, I was scared of people’s opinions and my impression on them. I did things out of fear and worry of their opinions. Today, I regret not being brave enough to go after what my heart truly wants than settle down for things and people my family and society thinks I have to do.
My life is fucked big time. I can’t undo a lot of things I’ve done in my life. I have no choice but to continue to live. I lost my precious late 20s by being lazy, arrogant, ignorant, egoistic and staying in my comfort zone. I hope I’ll be a wiser and a better person at the age of 35. I just want to live a normal and an average life. I don’t mind being unhappy or contender in life- I wish I can provide enough to people who are dependent on me and make them happy. That’s it. Nothing else. Nothing more than this.
It's never too late. I realised it at the age of 30. Along with my job, I am trying to learn new skills and giving my best at work. And it is helping me a lot to grow in my career. I think you should not worry about the past and focus on your future and be happy 😊
My friend you will do great in life 💪
There is no early and no late it's all in the mind
Don't want to share a debate, but I'd love to hear your thoughts on the dowry part. What's your take now and what's the thought process behind it?
I know where he is coming from... But it's more of societal lookout of it. It's a good thing to avoid it (dowry)as much as possible and stick to it. Few elements of society in middle class, thinks - if dowry is not received by the guy , it means the guy is useless. The guy who gets the most dowry is gold 😂. As weird it sounds, it is my personal observation, on how fcked up the thought process is .
I am 40. Failed lot of times in life.
My life lessons
Nothing comes free. Nothing. Every decision you take has a cost that you must be ready to own just as fully as the gains.
Never give up. Yet be ready to change. Yet don't change just because world wants you to. It's a double edged sword. Never.
Do not make the same mistake thrice. It's a decision.
Same here bro

Can't understand if hairfall is because of stress or stress is because of hairfall
I just hit 30 and it feels... different. Not bad, just not what I expected. My 20s were a whirlwind of possibilities, but now I'm wondering if I'm supposed to have it all figured out. How are your 30s different from your 20s? What chang...
