I have never been one to subscribe to “acting my age” — I don’t think I’ve done anything in societally influenced “order”. I want to assure 20somethings, it hasn’t even begun yet & encourage 30somethings not to settle. ••• You don’t enter your cognitive peak until your 30s! you’ve finally picked up enough info to walk in to you’re intellectual power! Not to mention, you have just enough life experience to question assumed beliefs. That means this is prime time for creative originality, invention or leading a revolution. 😉 Problem solving, abstract thinking, strategy and determination all come into their own in your 30s! ••• You’re friendships are more intentional! our circles shift from quantity to quality. We know ourselves better and choose to be around those who bring genuine care and inspiration. Friendships are less about cultivating a particular identity (a means of trying on different versions of you) and more to do with long-lasting social goals around connection and meaning. ••• Your endurance is at its highest ! Your 30s are a golden time when your strength, oxygen efficiency and coordination come together —- meaning start training! Try a new sport! Run a marathon! Get active, it’s literally the best time! •••
