We've all been there, stuck in the routine of life and just plain bored of what has been coming our way. Whether it be at work, school, or something in our personal lives, we could all use some spice and a nice shake up now and then.
The stage in your life that you make a change is important, regardless of what that may be: getting a new job, moving to a new house or even a new city, or something as simple as changing your shampoo in the morning and the sheets you're sleeping on.
If you change while you're a teenager, it's considered angsty rebellion against The Man, which let's be honest, who hasn't had their own little revolution against the system?
If you make a change when you're in your 20’s it's considered finding yourself and growing up a little, and doesn't that sound great! Who couldn't use to find themselves a little more?
If decide to change something any later than that, but before you retire, you'll be accused of having a midlife crisis and attempting to find your youth again. Which come on Dad, buying a house on the water and getting a boat seems a bit too cliché, doesn't it?
And if you've made it all the way to retirement and finally make some changes, however grandiose and out there as it may be, everyone seems to be okay with it. You've lived your life and if you want to retire and move to somewhere exotic, who's to blame you!!
However, you shouldn’t feel limited by your age, whatever it may be whether you’re young or old, you should always feel like you have the power to do something that you want to do.
Now obviously this isn’t an ultimate “do whatever rash thing you want” sort of thing, you shouldn’t be getting a tattoo of your celebrity crush when you turn 16 because by the time you turn 17 you probably won’t be feeling so strongly for them anymore.
But if there’s something in your life that you desperately want to change and you would be living life all the better for having done it, you should by no means feel limited by age, or any other factor for that matter.
It’s my firm belief that you should be the one in charge of your own life in every aspect, and that no matter who you are or where you are in life you should always feel like you are in control and capable of being the person you are supposed to be.
