Do These 25 Things In Your 20s Or Else You’ll Regret It

6.

Quit smoking.

7.

Choose a partner with whom you connect on an emotional level and share similar interests and most importantly have similar financial and personal goals. Looks and passion fade over time and these attributes have never carried a relationship through rough waters.

8.

Don’t be afraid of missing out. Your friends will get married, buy homes, have kids, get promoted, travel the world, and you might feel like you are staying still. Don’t feel the pressure. Live your life at your own pace. Make and tell your own stories.

9.

Please don’t pride yourself on sleep deprivation, your drinking ability or your workaholism. Do whatever you want, but don’t let these traits identify you.

10.

You don’t need to go cage diving in New Zealand to explore the world around you. Go for a bike ride, or take a cheap bus to a nearby town/neighborhood. Find a hobby.
