I’m in my early twenties and it turns out I’ll be a year older very soon, I’ve barely had my sanity in one piece. I’m always thinking, worrying.
I know the twenties is an important, even the most vital stage in the formation of the type of shape a human future will take.
The thought of the future alone makes me keep to myself sometimes, because I’m always thinking, planning, re-strategising, simulating the future in my head every minute.

To be very honest, Adulthood is not easy.

Question to folks in their thirties and beyond...
How did you get past the worries of your twenties?
Or does the worries keep getting bigger ?

Still in my twenties. I'm using this time to learn and up skill myself.

That’s good.

Late Twenties... I must say it's becoming even more obvious that the saying that "If you miss it in your twenties, you'll really suffer to correct it afterwards"

...pretty comfortable, but far from where one should be. So the grind remains to make good hay while the sun shines.

The worries do not ever really stop, because responsibilities will keep piling up as the age increases... The key is to make the most of the time, strength and flexibility that your current age affords you and FIND SOMETHING THAT WILL GIVE YOU A CONSTANT FLOW OF SOLUTIONS (this can be money or anything, but mostly money)

The Lord is your strength.

If you're getting worried at 20s I wonder what you'll do in your 40s

My brother said ' if you aim for the moon and miss, you will hit the star,

So keep planning you'll get there. But remove worry from the equation cuz nothing will move forward by worrying.

Sad

You're having positive thoughts, which is a good thing.

Truthfully, for me there was no worries or strategy, as years dey pass i just dey follow. I'm around 40 years now, and i have achieved something meaningful with my life, all thanks to God.

Life isn't easy. One step at a time

Just live bro. Live.

What are you learning

You will never get over worries in life, especially from the moment you become an adult.
At 20s, all you need is foundations, as many as possible.
30s, is worst, you will realize most of your mates are married, some have built house and living comfortably, and you look around, you are not satisfied.
At 40, you are already raising kids, feeding, fees, bills and the rest.
The circle continues, till one says goodbye to mother Earth.
So don't kill yourself, they are all part of life, you can only stop worrying, when you stop breathing

20s is overwhelming in a country as Nigeria, most especially if you're from a poor background. It can be very rough and tough!!

The deep worries starts when you hit your 30s!

Worked my a** out
Thanks to my father

Learning

I'm at that point in my life right now.

Biko just work hard and do your best.

Teenage depression and suicide is on the rise. Don't allow anyone out pressures on you

In my early thirties. Persistent worries is always about not knowing what tomorrow holds. It brings worries, thinking and constant sadness. But we can act today?

The truth is We go and grow everyday while changing and expecting change .. Meanwhile our decisions today triggers the real change. Either positive or negative . However, it's not really easy to select, maintain and sustain just positiveness.(we're human). But come on! I respect the fact that we can "keep trying" until we can no longer try.

My advice for anyone (particularly male) who is in their early twenties is this:

You may not be reckoned with now (especially with females) but keep pushing..keep learning skills....gain experience in your chosen endeavour.

You will start reaping the benefit in your mid thirties and that is when you as a man fully reach your prime.

Don't feel bad that females who are your age mates are moving on....or getting things you can only imagine. Their prime is between 17 - 40. Whilst your prime as a man is between 32 - 55.

Keep building on your skills and become the best at what you do. Alongside....make sure you:

Read self improvement books

Join self improvement and build networks with societies that are forward thinking.

And take care of yourself with your meagre resources. Not spending on women.

Spend money to care for your dressing....hair....skin...eat healthy and take your grooming very serious.

Blessings!
