You get to a point in your life when you start to realize your feelings about things around you start to change.

You used to love going out and being in crazy huge groups of friends. You used to love always being on the go, filling up every second of every day - even weekends - with plans. But as you get older (and this could happen at 18, 27, 35 or 50), eventually, you start to realize things that just aren't worth it.

1. Negative People

Oh dear, how much negative people and their negative energy just are not worth it. It's consuming when someone is constantly complaining or dragging their feet because everything in their life is a problem. They also feel the need to bring you into it, tell you about it, and somehow, that negative energy affects you. When you cut out the negative (or at least limit them in your life or how much their problems impact you), you start to feel so much better.

2. The "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead" Mentality

Okay, this one can be 50/50 because there is a time and place when this can be fun. Example: You're in Vegas for a weekend with your friends. Don't spend it sleeping! However, must you fill each and every weeknight and weekday with activities and partying and not sleeping? I'm here to tell you the answer: NO. Give yourself and your body a break once in a while and sleep in. Spend a weekend relaxing. The exciting times will be so much more exciting when you're at least a little bit rested.

3. Being a Part of All the Gossip

I might be in the minority here, but I am a firm believer that if you're one to constantly gossip and surround yourself with gossipers, they're likely gossiping about you when you're not around. I mean, everyone talks about everyone, it's human nature, but why be involved in constant gossip if you don't have to be? Plus, it might be nice knowing that people who you do decide to gossip with have your back - no? Keep some details about you to yourself and I'm sure you'll be just fine knowing that everyone isn't talking about how you were blackout drunk and slept with the bouncer at the club on a Monday night. It might even feel good being oblivious to the drama around you - hell, if you don't know anything, how can it ever come back to bite you? This might not be for everyone, but hey, it's just an idea.

4. Being Hung Over Every Weekend

Again - this depends on the person! Hey, if you can rage all weekend and feel great waking up for activities, more power to you. I enjoy a good hangover knowing I had a hell of a fun night with some great people, but does it need to be every weekend? Nahhhh. You eventually think the hangover isn't worth it, or at least isn't worth it at the rate it happens when you're young. Go throw the tub on and soak up a bath - I support you!

5. Drama, Drama, Drama

Drama can be exciting - when watching it on MTV or some trashy TV show. When you're involved, or even it's completely surrounding you in your friend group, it is so exhausting. Who's mad at who? Am I involved? Am I mad at someone? Who do we... Or I mean I... Hate? I don't remember and it's probably better that way. It makes life so much easier when you don't have to deal with it and sometimes not dealing with it can mean avoiding certain things like people or friend groups or events, but when you're okay with that, life can be so much simpler.

Okay, the truth is that this list is completely dependent on the person reading it. However, whatever the thing is that you're beginning to feel isn't worth it, probably isn't. Start weening it out. Cut it out all together. Whatever you gotta do to improve your life just that little bit is DEFINITELY worth it, so why not give it a try?
