Priorities change, patience wanes, and suddenly you choose to avoid drama in favor of going to bed early. We're talking about growing up, that moment in life when you realize that half the things you used to worry about don't matter anymore. Here are some of them:
1. Nobody cares what you wear.
Remember when you used to twirl in front of the mirror, trying to decide between “casual chic” or “smart casual”? Yeah, well, no one cares! Wear your most comfortable sneakers, your baggy t-shirt, or those sweatpants you would never wear in your 20s.
2. Social media is simply overrated
A perfect photo for Instagram, well-thought-out sentences for captions, or extraordinary sayings for Twitter, once mattered so much. What about now? Likes, comments, and the number of followers no longer matter. You've reached the point where you don't post at all for months and that's okay .
3. Healthy choices don't have to be boring.
There comes a moment when you start taking care of what really matters: your health, peace of mind, and happiness. But the best part is that you learn to make these choices without sacrificing too much: you don't choose drastic diets, but healthier foods; you start physical activity, but without having to lock yourself in the gym for hours. If you were once a smoker, you may have chosen to quit, or if you didn't want to quit, you switched to a better alternative, like IQOS.
4. Nobody has time for drama.
Do you remember those endless debates where you tried to win? Today, they belong to the past.
5. Happiness is in the little things
You used to think only about big successes to be happy: a promotion, a perfect relationship, a wonderful vacation. Now? Happiness can also be found in a great cup of coffee, a fantastic movie on Netflix, or an unplanned nap on the couch with the TV on.
6. You are finally comfortable with being yourself.
You no longer pretend to be someone you're not. You comb your hair the way you like, you say "no" to events you hate, you set boundaries without thinking twice, you don't apologize when you haven't done anything wrong, etc. And for the sake of the truth, you look better that way!
Getting older means being too busy enjoying life to worry about the unimportant things. Today, laugh at the past, embrace the present, and make better choices for the future. Life is too short!
