Nice write up..thanks

This is a completely naive list, patterned to fit a particular, narrow minded view of the world.

Should have been: Things I have decided to do before I clock 25, not things everyone should do before they clock 25.

Who are you to tell others how to pattern their lives, as if everyone subscribes to your societally constrained and conditioned goals, or shrinked perspective on life?

Any emotionally weak person, who can't think independently, would see this list and feel he needs to change certain aspects of himself, or think that he needs to conform totally to everything the op said, even the utterly ridiculous ones.

OP, not every one has the same aspirations as you, not everyone desires to be the social butterfly, or the woman charmer, or the social networking king, or some of the other nonsense you posted.
Some people have an entirely different, more broadened perspective on life, and their own subjective idea of the kind of life that they want, and I am sure they are wise enough to know the changes they need to make in their lives, in order to achieve their goals, and even if they don't, they'll find advice that fits their own pattern of life that they've drawn from themselves, not some generalized, redundant to-do-list, compiled some mindless robots of society.

Only the last point seems a bit sensible.

You've said it all,the OP is suffering from copy and paste diseases

Yinmu...And one day person go die.

Bro y nah?! Y wan make the person waste him better life before marriage?!. And the wife would be like she has found an husband!

Rapmoney:
Op, you have made such a wonderful post here but I disagree with your 5th point!
/t
Not everyone is required to hold on to a particular faith. In fact, it's not a must to belong to any faith...whether you are below 25 or above 83!!! Holding on to a faith comes by conviction; nobody is expected to believe in one faith or the other because he/she is about to turn 25! This is just part of that African mentality that has kept us backward.

read through that point again.

This is honestly true. Remember they say dress corporate to be successful, yet Zuckerberg wears same casual colors to big conferences. Dont curse, yet lil Wayne does it regularly and makes money. Omo, everyone has his story to plan and write.

How old are you Op? well some will dig your view some won't. Some are just made already, if know what I mean.

Bro, it's very easy to criticize the write-up of people because you have no idea of how difficult it is... Haba!!! At least try to appreciate creative idea for once.

The OP is right on track even though some of the points are open to criticism

[color=#990000][/color] anytime you wake up good morning you have to make a deep decision in life that can help only yourself

I find your comment rather puerile and insulting. I authored this writeup and I can prove that to you. Not every blogger out there relies on copy n paste 100%. Thank you

You're entitled to your opinion. You're talking as if everyone possess equal opportunities in this life. How can you just come up with absolute things people must do at a certain age, the most bizarre point is the one regarding faith.

God bless you o jare o

SO OP, IF PEOPLE DON'T ACHIEVE THAT BY AGE 25, THEY SHOULD COMMIT SUICIDE? VERY MYOPIC REASONING. BY THE WAY, I WAS A GRADUATE WAY BELOW THAT AGE, WORKING WITH A GOVERNOR WHO DOESN'T KNOW ME FROM ADAM, BUT MY SKILLS, IN AN OIL-RICH STATE. WAS ALSO A CONSULTANT TO A NEW GENERATION BANK WITH MY OWN DESK IN THE STATE'S HEAD OFFICE DUE TO SOME IDEAS I INITIATED WAY BELOW THAT AGE WITHOUT PRINTING A CV. I REFUSED TO JOIN THEM AS A REGULAR STAFF. BUT YOU SEE, NO ONE CAN RUN IN ANOTHER MAN'S RACE. BECAUSE THINGS ARE MOVING SMOOTHLY FOR YOU, DON'T CALL YOUR FRIENDS LAZY. LEARN BEFORE LIFE TEACHES YOU OTHERWISE. TODAY, I AM WHAT I AM BY THE GRACE OF GOD. ARE YOU?

you seem frustrated. Cool down
why the bashing? the OP is so on point.
it you are not interested, many need this advice.
sorry cool down

The Truth is Bitter, usually.

dont mind him, maybe he couldnt achieve all that the op said and he is over 25..

What i feel the op is trying to pass across, is for every young person to think deep and put the thinking to work.

You're right.

That list is fantastically and lugubriously nonsensical.
