I Am Turning 40 Soon by 11thGoldTREE: 5:41pm On Jul 24, 2022
I'm turning 40 this year and I've decided it's time to truly LIVE and EXPERIENCE all life has to offer--well, around town anyway.
I can't continue holding on to the difficulties of life.

Anyone have any ideas for hobbies to take up? Fun activities? Things for men to do? I'm open-minded to (almost) any experience!

Thanks

Happy birthday in advance, sir.
I never reach 40 o.

But I have discovered that life is only as good as the quality of people you surround yourself with.

My advice? Enjoy the little moments. Life is but a shadow

Start travelling all around the world.

That's my plan before 40 tho


Build just one or two houses, then train my children, use the remaining money to travel around the world.

You love sports? Golf, badminton, table and lawn tennis won't be a bad idea.

Gym classes is also another option.

You could opt for mentorship for the younger generation.

Make a commitement to an orphanage home. Not necessarily financial. See of what value you can be to them.

If you live in Nigeria, consider gardening (container, backyard, or even indoor) and raising Animals for food. undecided

All these before 40?

I hope you're currently in your early twenties, saving at least 200k per month (if you work in Nigeria)?

Cinemas, sight seeing, museums and art galleries, parks and beaches (the private ones, not the olosho and weed smoking riff raff infested public ones)

If there is high disposable income, get a man cave. 70 inch TV, game consoles, media server, surround sound system

Faff off in style

Correct. There's more to life than chicken, ice cream and shawarma or drinkss. Very few people appreciate nature parks and beaches.

Learn to live life a day at a time. See challenges/troubles from a different perspective. During downtime, remind yourself it is a phase and it surely will pass like every other one from the past.

Above all, be intentional.

We lead such noisy lives. I don't know how people cope with the constant noise. Human beings need to connect with nature once in a while and leave artificial things behind

You could consider going on a food tour to try out the cuisines of other cultures

You could learn a sport

You could try a mountain hike with friends

You could visit a resort. Peaceful/romantic getaway
