Your 20s are the years when you\u2019re really finding out who you are and what you want from life. Don\u2019t waste your time doing things that aren\u2019t going to get you to where you want to be.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
If it feels right to you, go for it – stop caring about what other people think. You\u2019ve still got a few years \u2018til you need to be a \u2018proper\u2019 adult.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We can’t all afford to explore the globe, but we can learn from different cultures around us. Get outdoors, rent a bike, try new things and talk to people you would never normally meet. If you’re lucky enough, hop on a plane and don’t come back for a few months…<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Be the person you want to spend time with. Make memories with people who make you happy, get rid of the time wasters and don\u2019t forget your family, because when the sh*t hits the fan they\u2019re usually the ones helping to clear it up.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
You don’t need to feel ready to settle down, you’ve got plenty of years for that. But on the flip side, if you think the time is right, then go you! Don’t let go of someone just because you’re scared of commitment, but don’t let a relationship define you either.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We\u2019re not gonna lie, spending an extra half hour in bed rather than hitting the gym wins almost every time, but finding something you enjoy is physically and mentally rewarding. Whether you start a running club with your mates, surfing, cycling to work or get flexy with a yoga class, stick to it and it\u2019ll start paying off.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It cures a hangover, makes your skin clearer and keeps you hydrated. It literally takes up two-thirds of your body so it really isn\u2019t that bad. Stop kidding yourself you don\u2019t like it. Add a slice of lemon if you want.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Our generation is crippled with social anxiety and FOMO. Put your phone away for a few hours a day and stop thinking everyone else has it better than you… the grass isn’t always greener.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Listen up in those uni lectures, you might learn something new (and hey, if you don’t use it in real life, it’ll probably come in useful in a quiz). Start that language course you’ve been putting off and think of each day as an opportunity to grow your mind, body or soul.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
You’ll never be as young and as free again. So grab every opportunity you can, be a yes person and live the way you want to be remembered.<\/p>\n
