Navigating Your 20s: Living At Your Own Pace, With No Guidelines
Evolution of the 20s Generation
Being in your 20’s is different for every generation. Now I can’t exactly tell, but I’m sure our parents’ 20’s were filled with a lot of responsibilities like working, getting a job, and marriage. These things weren’t easy then, and they’re definitely not easy now but just a tad bit different in this generation.
Gen Z 20’s Experience
This generation’s 20’s is filled with the same things but there’s a difference. A lot of people have gotten the luxury of their parents, and a lot of people in their 20’s in Generation Z prioritize other things like love, money, friendships, and experience. Yes, many of them work, build a life for themselves, yet some people do not go through these same things.
Navigating your 20’s can be quite confusing and hard as many immediately enter a different stage of life. Some people can be working while others struggle to get a job, while there are even some trying to quit or do not want a job.
No Guideline: Different Stages
There can never be a guideline when you’re turning 20 or how to be 20. Everyone’s stage immediately gets different in your 20’s. It’s not the same as being a classmate in primary school or secondary; you can’t be the same. The only advice one can tell people in their 20’s is to be yourself, be in your own time. Do not look at others and try and imitate their lifestyle. It is normal to be in a different stage than your mates. Whether one likes it or not, you will keep being on a different stage from your age mates as you move forward.
Change and life differences with our mates is just more sensitive to people who are in their 20’s, but afterwards, trust that you’ll be comfortable in your own pace.
Cheers to being different and accepting your stage in life. It’s up to you to live how you want and not your mates.
When people hear “9–5,” they often assume there’s no room for anything else except work and weekend rest. It can feel like your entire day is already taken. But if you really think about it, there are still small pockets of time you can use without overwhelming yourself.
Let’s talk about productivity in a simple, realistic way.
Your day doesn’t start at 9am and end at 5pm. There’s the time before work and the time after. The question is: what are you doing with your 6am–9am and 5pm–9pm?
6am – 9am: Keep it light
This is a good time to ease into your day.
You can:
- Do a bit of exercise
- Prepare your meals
- Get yourself ready without rushing
5pm – 9pm: Unwind and reset
After work, your focus should be on relaxing your mind.
You can:
- Watch a series
- Read a book
- Do something that helps you switch off
