10 Important Things To Pay Attention To In Your 20s by IyaTola: 5:31am On May 06, 2023
Here are 10 important things to pay attention to in your 20s that can help set a good foundation for the future👇🏽

1. Invest in your education and career: This is the time to lay the foundation for a successful career. Take advantage of every opportunity to learn, whether it’s through formal education or on-the-job training.

2. Build your network: Networking is crucial for success, and it’s never too early to start building your professional contacts (this is why Linkedin is the perfect place to be). Put yourself out there by posting relevant and educative content, attending events, joining professional organizations, and reaching out to people you admire.

3. Develop a healthy lifestyle: Your twenties are a great time to establish healthy habits that will serve you well throughout your life. Exercise regularly, eat a balanced diet, and get enough sleep.

4. Manage your finances: Start saving early and learn how to manage your money wisely. Develop good habits around budgeting and investing.

5. Travel and explore: Take advantage of your freedom and travel as much as you can. Seeing different parts of the world will broaden your horizons and give you a new perspective on life (I’m still trying to fit into this area)

6. Build strong relationships: Make time for the people who matter most in your life. Invest in your relationships with family, friends, and romantic partners.

7. Take risks: Your twenties are a time to take risks and try new things. Don’t be afraid to fail, as failure is often a necessary step on the path to success.

8. Practice gratitude: Cultivate a sense of gratitude for the good things in your life. This will help you maintain a positive outlook and find joy in everyday moments.

9. Develop a sense of purpose: Figure out what you’re passionate about and how you can make a positive impact in the world. Having a sense of purpose will give your life meaning and direction.

10. Embrace change: Life is full of ups and downs, and your twenties are no exception. Embrace change and learn to adapt to new situations, as this will serve you well throughout your life.

Rather than focus all your attention on getting only money, understand that your twenties are a time of growth, discovery, and learning.

We’re figuring out who we are, what we want to do with our lives, and how to navigate the challenges that come our way.

So, when we understand that we are in a discovery stage, we’d get to take it easy on ourselves and focus on the most important things.

I hope this helps and what important things have you learned in your twenties that have helped you set a good pace for your life ahead?

Number one is by learning Programming now so that at 25 you must have become an IT King.

I am a very good mentor in that if you are looking for one.

I wish someone told me this when I was in my 20s

As a guy who got a good paying job (120k net) in my 20s, rather than invest, I was importing babes from Abuja, Lagos, Kaduna to PH

Any girl who refuses to come, I don buy flight ticket go meet am. Then flight na 10k to 15k.

No club in PH I don't go to every weekend.

Chai!

As if life has a pattern. Even if it does, the life of an average Nigerian is like a whirlwind, till a miracle happens.

He said, start saving...from what? The 18,000 minimum wage? Motivation with zero allocation!

My advice to vicerians of today is the same advice given by King Lemeul's mum to him in Prov 31:3.
Don't spend your strength or resources on women, e get why.
The foundation for my wealth and success today was laid in my twenties. Not saying you shouldn't enjoy life o, but be sensible about it.

It's all about setting priorities. A Brazilian bonestraight can fund 1 or 2 travels. Something has to give. GenZ don't tend to have a thing for travel, they're more comfy in their social media space. That's why we have youths with monocular views and perspectives with little common sense.
In my twenties I travelled so much, people wondered if I had a job. It came at a cost as I wasn't materialistic but the knowledge and exposure I have today is priceless.
