Unmotivated and Unsuccessful at 27!
Feeling like a failure
It just feels like a lot is happening all at once, and one can’t seem to catch a break. Time is flying by so fast!
I still remember vividly when I turned 18 years old. Suddenly, I am 27 and dealing with stress and anxiety. I remember how I wanted to grow up so fast so I could live on my terms. Well, I am all grown up now, and I have a lot I want to say.
Looking back, the uncles and aunties I watched growing up looked like they had their life all figured out, and I wished to be like them someday. Here I am, and I don’t know exactly what I want to do with my life.
Sometimes, I go back to my old diaries where I wrote down the goals I should have achieved by turning 25. I am 27 years old, and all I can do is laugh — life has happened.
But in the end, everything didn’t turn out bad.
I am writing this article for those who feel unmotivated and successful, especially those in their 20s and 30s who feel like time is flying by and have nothing to show for it.
Some of us are struggling to get a Job, those who have one are tired of it, while others are juggling two or more jobs to make ends meet, and then you keep asking when will all these end.
