In my thirties my living situation has become more stable. If it has for you as well, what’s the next big thing on your mind, or is there one?
Enjoying my life
Plus identifying and removing/fixing things that get in the way of that
My social life. Strengthening my social circle. Improving my friendships with existing friends, finding new ones and having great experiences with them. And maybe also finding a partner if that opportunity presents itself.
I’m saving to pay for my children’s education and prepare for retirement.
Right now I’m racing to work out a mortgage, this will grant me a significant “pay raise”, after that I don’t really have an end goal, other than becoming entirely debt free.
I thought about my “life goals” recently, I have nothing that needs fixing, nothing to set a proper goal post on.
This is kinda how I feel. On one hand it’s a little refreshing, on the other IDK seems a little like I’m laying the groundwork for a mid life crisis
Staying retired. Been toop of mind for a couple deacades.
I quit work at 35 and am now 60. I’m quielty confident that even a worst case scenario ill be ok but still have this fear I’llll have to work again and life will be over
I have.an f parter who tells me her biggest fear is me leaving her.and I tell her my biggest fear is she’ll realise what a fuck up I am and move on, so there is that
Everyday I read of some hardworking type age 55-65 falling down dead. That doesn’t count the ones who are media famous.
My top priority is to get myself in a good position to enjoy my 40’s. I’m paying down debt, getting fit, and having health issues checked out and fixed. I’m also trying to improve my mental health by tackling bad habits and personality flaws that I’d always assumed weren’t a big deal and/or would go away once I was an adult, but they haven’t.
Trying to maintain internal and external peace.
Finding some sort of greater purpose.
Health … maintaining good health.
Eat properly, eat less and with proper portions.
I’m friends with lots of elderly people. There is nothing worse that abusing your body at a younger age and survive until your 60s and 70s as a completely unwell and unhappy person. Nothing worse than living the last 10-20 years of your life in pain and disability because you didn’t take care of yourself in your 30s, 40s.
Early 30s was finding a partner. Now it’s raising a child.
