I thought I’d share some nuggets of knowledge from my 28 years of living.

Nobody Knows What They’re Doing

Don’t get stressed if you don’t know what you’re doing, because we ALL feel that way. Any twentysomething that tells you with 100% certainty that they know what they are doing is a jackass…and a liar.  Even the most confident, focused twentysomething isn’t entirely sure what the fuck they’re doing.

Stop Comparing Yourself to Others

It’s easier said than done, but stop comparing yourself to your peers. We have a tendency to compare snapshots of our friends’ lives to our life as a whole. Don’t worry if you don’t have a SoHo loft or a wife and two kids.  I can assure you that your friends are looking at some part of your life with envy.

It’s Not Too Late

You’re not old.  Stop freaking out about being 24 or 28. Really, you’re just scraping the surface of the rest of your life. Don’t think that you’re trapped or it’s too late to change your life. A wise friend told me that while we’re in our twenties/early thirties we’re all just a few years apart until everything levels out. By the time we all hit forty, we’ll be where we want to be.

You Are Not Alone

Most importantly, remember this…you are not alone. Any uncertainty you might be feeling, there is someone else who is feeling it too.

If you need to vent, have questions, or want to tell me I’m an idiot, shoot me an email.
