Herewith, three “gifts” one 40-something would give a 20-something as their “Forty-Godmother”. What are yours?
1.
Set some type of roadmap. The road always turns and that’s okay…but I think it is important to say mentally where you want to be and then at least you know what you are turning away from and can adjust your map. Is it a detour, a wrong turn, a scenic drive or is it a new direction?
2.
Never do things half way. Especially marriage. Relationships are two-way streets. But you have to give it your all or your will lose yourself.
3.
Play the field of life in your twenties. It’s a really big field. Find yourself first. It’s hard to do because all your life you’re so used to being in this group where you’re part of something and not just being you. Now is your time to experiment and do things on our own and travel and experience things on your own and with other groups.
