How to Find Yourself in the 20s?

by Tanya

“I think your 20s are the hardest part of life. I mean, everyone goes on about how hard it is to be a teenager, but actually I think it’s tougher to be in your 20s because you’re expected to be a grownup and expected to earn your own living and be successful and I think you feel like a kid still.”

- Nigel Col

When I say to find yourself, I mean to live the long journey of life, in your way, to have the freedom to think on your own, to let your heart, beat a little more than usual, to live life to the fullest, to breathe a little more, to unleash and unfold new things, that might come in your way, while following your destination. Care a little less, and laugh a little more. Enjoying every moment of your adulthood, and learning from it, simultaneously.

To be a grownup is surely not an easy thing, taking a lot of destructive things into yourself, evolving with those people, dealing with the negativity, but the hardest part is to stimulate and revert in a way which will not only astonish people but will also change the climate surrounding you, to throw the ray of hope and sunshine like confetti, so that people can feel & see the home within you.

I firmly believe that the best way to learn is by being in the process, and constantly learning from it, Each experience has something to teach you, but what you take from it, depends on you and your thought process, How thoughtful you are? Are you someone who just takes a new thing to learn from every place you go, or someone who is a rebel, being a rebel is not weird, trust me, It's your life, you can be the person, who you want to be. It all starts with you and ends with you.

Mostly, people in their 20s are either in college or doing a job. The most common problem that every other person of this age group has, is the feeling of being doomed, unheard, misunderstood, and if you are burdened to do a job, which you never actually wanted to opt for, then I think that's the worst thing you can do to slowly kill yourself, by not following your passion, by not chasing for which you were made for, The reason of most people struggling in their professional life, even after choosing a good profession, is they are not happy with their choices, because apparently which seemed to be the right option for them is no longer the 'RIGHT'.

Your life is going according to how you want to live it, and the only thing that needs to go to plan is how happy you are with how it's unfolding. Finding yourself in your 20s is a journey that's going to have its ups and downs as you go along.
