What nobody tells you about Adult Life...



There is still a way to go in order for women to be able to actualize their talents, skills, and dreams- particularly if she is in a care taking role in a relationship or family. Gender equality may still be more of an ideal. In reality, statistics still show that women are still doing more of the care taking and housework.    Unless a woman is single, it is very hard to balance her own evolution which includes time for exploring her goals, actualizing dreams, and climbing up ladders-  while taking care of a family- at least not yet. 
Leadership is primarily about taking responsibility. It has to do with how willing and able you are to take responsibility for every aspect of your work. Leadership is not about having the best ideas, or being the most skilled worker but how thoroughly you pay attention to what is being done and created. A leader is there from start to finish while followers will cut out when they feel they've satisfied their part of the job. 
 Physical exercise can save your butt and keep you flying Everyone hears that working out and going to the gym is a good thing. What people don't tell you is that the reasons for doing exercise is not about just looking good but about saving yourself from sinking into whatever you tend toward- anxiety, depression, inertia, laziness, overeating, drinking too much, low self-esteem, mistreatment of your body, poor boundaries, fatigue, you name it. Physical exercise can cure so many things at once. It can be one of the most important things you can do to keep sane during really tough times in life. 
Effort made toward a goal or breaking through your own limits is never a waste of time- even if you fail at it. Making effort towards anything has a cumulative effect, even if you drop your goal. If you put effort into eating healthy for a few weeks and then go back to sugar and fat, the effort you made will never diminish even if the goal is not reached. So the next time you cycle around to eating healthy again, you will actually pick up from where you left off the first time and find it easier to do the second time around. So don't give up even if you left your resolution to change years ago. It's never too late and your past effort will be felt and remembered when you step up to the challenge.
When pain in life repeats itself, it is you carrying and creating that pain by attracting others that play into it. If you are someone that gets cheated on again and again, for example, it is because you are unconscious to the wounds that you are carrying. Get the help you need by discovering and facing those wounds so you can stop the cycle. Only you can do this. 
Make it a practice to friend people in different generations. Your life will be richer for knowing younger people as well as older people. As you age, you will not lose everyone in your life but will have friends remaining. Find a way to minimize loss as you age. While you are young you can learn from great examples of elderly people who are living life well.
