Things You Must Know the Time You Turn 30

Hello Awesome Readers!~

I have read a very interesting article online about things you must know before you turn 30. I am nearing my 3^rd decade in this world and I have been finding myself agreeing to most of what was written on this article and I want to share this good read with you tonight – just a great article to read before going to bed or even to start the day with.

This article is from the website www.lifehack.org and the author really did an amazing job on this article. Something timeless, something I can always read and reflect on. Here are some of the highlights of the article that I want to share with you on my blog.

“18. Do not look for validation from others for doing the right thing.

Many times in life I have had to go against the status quo in order to right a wrong. I was dumbfounded when I got hit in the face with anger, back stabbing and outright threats. It is not pretty but you always have to do what your consciences tells you to do.

21. The people in your life are the most important thing there is.

Back in 1989, we had an earthquake here in California and it was devastating. When the shaking stopped there was an eerie calm broken only by the sounds of a woman screaming. She screamed for minutes and finally stopped. Once I realized that I was not injured, my first thought was for my neighbors and when I found that they were okay I called everyone I knew. In fact, everyone was calling everyone they knew and the phones were down. The lesson from this is that when disaster strikes, you don’t give a flying hoot in Hell about your possessions. All you care about is the people you love.

24. Your enemies will expect attacks but will never expect compassion.

Weirdly, the opposite of what your instincts tell you to do in situations where you are under attack is generally correct. There will be occasions where you will have to act and harm another person if that person needs to be stopped for the good of everyone, but most times compassion and communication will succeed where force does not. Swallowing your anger and making an attempt to communicate and iron things out is effective many times. Even when it is not, it reveals the strength in you. It takes strength to be the better man or woman in a conflict. This makes you a formidable power.”
