20 Reminders That Prove It’s Okay To Be Directionless In Your 20s

5. Go on solo coffee-dates!

Once in a while, that coffee worth 500 bucks (and a blueberry muffin) won’t hurt much. Take a notepad and your ear-phones and you’ll know solo coffee dates are the best outings you’ll ever have!

6. Be kind to yourself even when the world isn’t.

The world around you will comment on your weight, your haircut, your sensitivity, your choices or maybe having a life. Get over it! You’re much more than their judgments. Look in the mirror and love yourself. Be imperfect and flawed.

7. It’s okay to make mistakes in relationships.

There will be a time when you realise that your blunder has damaged a relationship. It’s okay. Relax. No one has a perfect life. And people who want to stick around will always find enough reasons. For all the good things you did, if they still find one reason to show their back, open the door and let them make a graceful exit. Do that for yourself, if no one else.

8. Use the word ‘no’ more often.

Saying ‘no’ is a necessity. If you don’t want something, say ‘no’. Say ‘no’ to anything that affects your mental peace. Even if a ‘no’ hurts the other person, it’ll keep you peaceful in the long run. Totally worth it, isn’t it?
