30 Lessons I Learned by 30

10/07/09

lessons I learned by 30 Tomorrow I proudly turn 31! Entering your thirties seems like a rite of passage. The reality of doing so is shaped by your perception. Now, I can proudly share 30 lessons I learned by 30, but that wasn’t always the case. 

Like most, I spent the later half of my twenties in fear of my thirties and the first six months of my thirties in mourning. From the age of 25, every birthday felt like a ticking time bomb. When 30 approached, I thought my life was over. Strange, because if I had chosen to embrace my thirties, I would have seen that my life was just beginning. 

Today, I feel better than ever. Moreover, I’m truly amazed by how far I’ve come in the past six months. In celebration, I thought I’d share some of the lessons I’ve learned along the way.

26. Do something for the greater good

27. Create a vision board

28. Love fearlessly

29. Play big

30. Get good sleep
