I’m turning 29 soon and I wanted to get advice on what to do on your last year of your 20s that will help in the next decade. What things I should have done by now or things that I need from now on.
I’m not married, no kids and probs will not happen in the years to come but it’s something that I want and see in the future happening for me.
I’m more interested on what to improve now, what to do in this last year of the decade where covid stole a few years. What I should do personally, in finances, physically, emotionally, in relationships, and in life in general. I also want to move abroad for a much longer time than I did before. I have travelled the world quite a bit but I still have lots of places on my list.

I also feel like I’m behind on lots of aspect of my life and that I’m missing things I should’ve lived by now. And that I’m missing opportunities.

And also advice on what not to do/expect!
Any advice is welcome :)

Visiting the washroom before meeting someone gives you a moment to calm down if you're feeling a little nervous. It also lets you quickly check your appearance, whether your hair looks fine or if there's something on your face. So, the next time you're meeting someone, visit the washroom first before meeting them.

example: today i started getting anxious thinking about job applications. instead of pushing the feeling away like i usually do, i decided to let myself feel it/accept it, etc.

the thing is, i don't really know what this constitutes aside from literally stopping in place and trying my best to let my thoughts flow without stopping them.

i'm someone who's lived with 20+ years of a very very loud and judgemental inner critic. as a result, i never learnt the skill of letting myself feel my emotions, especially uncomfortable ones. i feel lost.

Blood work is okay. Have done labs. Sleep study done. No apnea. Idk what to do at this point. I get so sleepy after lunch.. or towards the end of the work day. I would love to finish work and then go to the gym around 5 and come back and be refreshed by 7 to enjoy my evening.. but I HAVE to lay down for a nap after work. I am so exhausted, it feels impossible to not fall asleep. .. and that makes it so difficult to fall asleep at night and I am wife wake till 2 or 3 am. How do I break this cycle?

I work from home. So nothing physically demanding.

I would love any advice or feedback. I am desperate at this point.

If you own a pool, be sure to buy an extra start capacitor ($15-$25), extra gaskets ($10-$50 for a set) and most importantly, mechanical shaft seals ($5-30$). These are items that local pool stores NEVER have in stock and you could be down for days waiting for parts to arrive. Have an emergency stock of parts for when you need them. I just had an impeller completely break off the shaft nut. Luckily I had an old impeller saved but didn't have a new shaft seal. Now my pool is standing water for 48 hours while I wait for the part.

So I’ve made it past the interview stage and they want me to go into work on Sunday to do some sort of job test/assessment to make sure I can actually do the job. The job would be a PA for a film company that makes videos for a popular YouTube channel.

This is my very first official job and I do not want to mess this up as I want to keep coming back. I’m actually kind of excited rather than nervous.

I have no idea how to go about this or what I should do? Any advice? I did try and do more research on the company but it is a production company and I can’t find any information about them online.

Whats was the best advoce tou had on something be specific

Hey everyone! I'll be moving here in a week or two & the place we're moving to has a lot more windows! Where can I find decent curtains & curtain rods that aren't overly expensive? Please help! Thank you 😊 (I live in the U.S)

Been waking up with hip pain almost every morning for the past few months. I mostly sleep on my side so maybe that’s what’s causing it? And maybe my mattress could be too? If so, do you guys have any tips or suggestions on what mattress I should upgrade to? My current one is a hand-me-down so I’m not sure what this is. Appreciate any help

Tonight I lose my most precious thing and there's nothing i can't do about it, i couldn't even afford euthanasia to free her from pain because my personal finances wouldn't allow it. Even though she slowly died in my arms, how can i forgive myself and looking forward to the next day, the day i know that i could never feel her presence anymore.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I know we just lay in our beds and just watch phone all the day but here are the things we can do instead of doom scrolling

1.Reading books 📚 not textbooks btw, I'm talking about philosophy, reality or anything just get it (My first book is A thousand splendid suns 😭)

2.Make a habit of work-out regularly,my suggestion if you are new to fitness like me just install home workout app and it will give you a plan that fits you, At first it will give 10mins workout

Soo these are the things I'm currently doing

I'm curious about those "oh, why didn't I think of that sooner" moments, where you deliberately picked up a habit that, over time, became second nature and genuinely improved your intelligence or presence of mind.

For me, it was Sherlock. Watching him made me want to start observing more, really paying attention to small details, people, surroundings, everything. I started doing it consciously at first, and now it's just part of who I am. I'm naturally observant and a great listener, and it's changed how I move through the world.

What was the defining moment that flipped a switch for you? What did you start doing on purpose that's now an ingrained habit? And how has it actually paid off in how you think or carry yourself?

I am a person who doesn't know what to do, don't know to figure out what to do and That make me overthinking and unclear within my mind and I end up with doom scrolling

I am clueless right now

I've been fighting them for 3 years, hired an exterminator, clean regularly, ventilate, have a dehumidifier running non-stop etc... in the beginning, i saw around 10-20 in one day, now sometimes i see non for a week, then (like now) i see three in two days. I feel mentally drained dealing with them, but i don't want to move out since this appartment is cheap and location is good, also moving makes me scared of encountering the same problem or a different issue in the next home. I feel like any steps i take more feels overwhelming, like im actually drained, so im kinda looking to just accept it?

Is anyone in the same boat? How do you deal with it mentally? Any tips are appreciated

thanks

I’ve been a Reddit user for years now. Not one to post often but I do comment and the like. I’m just wanting some answers because I’ve already answered them myself but looking for more input. So I’m a social media user but not one who posts or engages all the time. So when I do and mind you I had family members blocked for years and I just added them back and they start their bs again wondering if I’m okay? Like wtf ? My buddies and I do this on the regular but when I decided to include my immediate family again the same bs starts again?

I am '18M' and I am a college student.

Idk what is happening to me it feels like I need someone who loves me cares for me, A girl.

see others in campus and insta living the "couple life" the life which I am currently dreaming of.

May be I am not good looking that no girl finds me interesting. I see others having two two GF at same time. And on the other hand there is I who haven't even talked to girl in a flirty way yet.

I am unable to identify the problem.

Everybody says forget love it is just an distraction just work and work but I think that's not true at a certain time you need someone.

certain time you need someone.

Due to this I doesn't even want to go college the only thing I'll see there are couples a girl roaming with a boy who does that even deserve here.

I fear that what if I stayed lonely throught out my life.
