I Turned 26. Here’s What I’ve Learnt So Far.

On June 04, I turned 26.

A part of me is confused.

Am I still mid-twenties? Or is this when I should start my late twenties skincare routine?

Also, I wanted to be an adult so badly as a kid. I thought this was when life feels ‘sorted’. This is what grown-ups are.

But I feel far, far away from that. Not sorted, and definitely not grown up.?

On the other side, there’s also a lot to feel grateful about.

I have everything I wanted a year ago. In fact, my younger self would’ve been so proud of me. I always wanted life to be as it is today, but never thought I’ll actually get it.

I’m grateful to be happier and more content. There’s more fire in me because my purpose is strong. I didn’t even feel I’d find my purpose, let alone pursue it with all my heart. Because so many people never bother to tap inside into finding their purpose and potential.

While quitting my job at 25 felt like jumping into the deep end of the pool, so many great things have happened after that.

I have a partner I’ve desired all my life (seriously) and it feels unreal that I got the exact same person I dreamt of.

Anyhow, here are 26 random things I’ve learnt from my time here.

Before we start - I have an exciting offer

As a part of my birthday weekend, all my products are on an exciting offer. Also, I've pre-launched the LinkedIn Content Mastery Playbook . Hop on to these links and add the code BIRTHDAY.

Now, let's hop right in!

1. You’re here for a reason. Relentlessly pursue the journey to finding why you’re alive.
2. Don’t diet, eat mindfully instead.
3. Learn from everywhere, but use what works for you.
4. Forgive your parents if they screwed up anything when you were growing up. They’re individuals first and parents later.
5. The universe has a way of giving you back exactly what you put out.
6. It always looks like it going downhill… until it shoots up.
7. Don’t rekindle friendships just because you were close once. Cut out everything and everyone who doesn’t serve you.
8. Belief is the foundation of all achievements.
9. Saying “you’re right” is the second-best thing to do during an argument. The best one is leaving.
10. Your entire life is designed with your thoughts. Read that again.
11. I’ve been writing 10 things every morning that I’m grateful for since 2017. It’s a game-changer.
12. Eliminate negative thoughts about people. Don’t even bother to pass judgement. You’ll free your aura from stagnant energy.
13. Breathe out stagnancy.?
14. You are the sum of your intention and values.
15. Try to sell without actually selling. That's when you know you’re doing it well. (I know nothing about sales & marketing,tt but my products and services are doing well)
16. I’d rather be un-famous, make an impact, and create wealth than worry about how I look all day because I’m famous. But that’s just me… I like it quiet and simple.
17. Let go of your pride and ego. You’re literally going to turn to ashes like everybody else. It’s so, so uncool.?
18. There is solace when you don’t feel negative, think negatively, and don’t attach negative labels to things. Your mind gets freed from crap.
19. The human mind has surprising potential. Challenge it, flex it, build it.
20. Instagram fills you with negativity subconsciously. Get rid of it. If I could delete my 10,000+ followers account, you can surely manage your time to use it well.
21. Don’t skip homemade festivities in the name of health. You won’t remember your broccoli, but you’ll remember when your mom cooked your favourite 1000-calorie dish.?
22. You will die . I think of this every day. No, it’s not negative. It’s a fact you must find peace with.
23. Don’t be like most people who live but aren’t even living. You can live. You’re here to live.
24. Your weirdness is your strength. My laziness helps me get done with work quick. My social awkwardness helps me with a strong filter I have about whom to let in. Recognise what makes you weird and embrace it.
25. Hate, anger, envy — this is self-imposed poison. I stopped using the word hate because my 9th-grade teacher told us it’s toxic. Now, even a tinge of anger or envy feels like I’m drowning in negativity.?
26. There’s always a choice.

Finally

I probably live in an ideal world because I believe in miracles, magic, and all that the universe has to offer.

Simple is boring.

It’s more fun to be so alive that you’re conscious of how little you are in this big big world.

And your time here is limited.

At least I only have 2/3rds of time left. I hope, in health.
