off-topic What are some things you realized when you got older?

[Ja sa bong]

We see things differently as we become more older and mature. It's not the same way you see things when you're a teenager would be the same way you see them in your 30's, 40's upwards.

I used to think Crying is a sign of weakness when I was younger but when I become older, I realized that it's okay to cry, there's nothing about it being weak.

What are some things you realized when you got older?

I understand that when we grow, we tend to change our perspective. Before, I used to believe that success was all about wealth and status, but as I grow older, my success in life is how happy I am and how I have grown personally.

DON'T TRUST PEOPLE EASILY!!

This is the biggest lesson I've learnt in life after getting old. I used to give my trust to people easily when I was younger, they burned me very hard.

I learned this very young at around 13 with my first business venture.

It took me till my early 20s to realize you can't buy time though.

There are certain things you might not know when you are younger or things you take as a necessity, but as you grow older, they might become unnecessary. When I was younger, I used to think that material things were essential but now I embrace simplicity.

Age is just a number. I keep on telling myself!
But we all know that is not true, we all want to remain young not just physically but also doing things that young people do.

As I grow older, I do things that make me happy. In other words, I prioritise my happiness above any other thing else. I also make sure to treat people right and be nice. It cost me nothing to do that!.

I learnt it the hard way when my supposed best friend was shagging my sister behind my back with no regard for guy's code. He eventually got her pregnant.

Money can buy you every thing. If you have money, you have everything, if you don't have money, even your parents or kids will not like you. I am ready to debate with anyone who opposes my theory.

I realise that anything can happen to anyone but the ability to do better in such situations make the difference

I have realized that life is not that easy. We tend to face many challenges associated with life. Many people may have many different kinds of expectation from us. The social pressure can also be one of the main things we usually face because the society expects many things from us. Life is full of challenges.

Specifically, I’ve learned that growing up is tough. You have a lot of responsibilities piling up for you. Not to talk of the high expectations from you.

Though there are so many narratives on what it means to grow up, the bitter truths are quite harsh. But as we grow older, or become adults, responsibilities, pressure and expectations from ourselves and others are increased. It’s indeed a tough process.

If you are a guy and an adult, get your life together. Nobody is coming to save you, level up and become a man of value. Stop waiting for a miracle or someone that will change your life, it lies your own hands.
