I just clocked 40 year old and I feel as if I have not done well for myself. May be because I had always set a standard, hence my high taste and expectations.


Now goes the question,as a Nigerian,what achievement do one expects from a 40years old man irrespective of his education?

Trade all of this in for peace of mind, and contentment OP, and you have more than achieved a lot at 40.

Do your best.
Whatever little or much of what you have achieved so far is nice.
Work harder and harder and be doing things in more wiser ways.

There is no guideline or general rule comparing achievement to age.
There are some that in their twenties, they already achieved most of their target in life.
So do your best.
Comparing yourself to others has advantages and disadvantages.
Be happy and work harder.

There are people living in their village, but they are happy with their life.
They live good life even better than those struggling in the city.
I remember uncles that moved back to village and did better in the village and lived much more happy lives.

Achọghị m ihe kpatara na unu ji etinye onwe gị nnukwu nsogbu na Nigeria. Ọtụtụ ndị ọgbọ gị na mba ofesi nwere ike bi n'ụlọ nne na nna ha

At 38, I was losing interest in my job as a carpenter and my back hurt. At 40, I had my first child, a girl. At 42, my first son. At 45, I entered university. At 50, I had two bachelors degrees: computer science and applied mathematics. But something called the dot-com crash had happened while I was studying and computer work was hard to find, even for the young kids I was at university with. I spent another year at school, training to be a math teacher, then had a semester as a supply/substitute teacher, called in when someone was sick. I was called in twice in four months. Meanwhile, I was working as a carpenter again, actually enjoying it after a long break. Then I was offered a temporary job teaching residential construction and math-based engineering courses to young adults at a polytechnic. The students were great: good people with varied backgrounds. The job became permanent until I retired a few months ago at 66. I could have continued but have plans, interests, which will only become more difficult to achieve.

Have I achieved much in life? It depends on your value system, I suppose. I am certainly not wealthy in financial terms but, with a small pension and some investment income, I have all I need. (Certainly, if I'd started earlier, I'd have more money but I have no regrets.) I have a beautiful wife whom I love even more than the day I married her 30+ years ago. I have two wonderful adult children. I am fairly healthy. I am happy. I have achieved all I could wish for. I am very lucky.

At 40, you must be more concern about humanity than being selfish and constituting nuisance in the society.

Anything aside that is a mere waste of energy because life has no manual or special procedure. As long as you are happy with your life, you have nothing to worry about.
