Do I have any 80’s babies that are anxious about turning 30? Please say I!
30 is the new 20 right? Rightttt?? I need reaffirmation here ugh.
Whenever I think about not achieving certain aspirations, I start to panic and have mini drama episodes. I know I know, melodramatic, but it’s just how I feel.
I set myself a goal when I was 22, that by the time I turn 30 I would have____________ fill in the blank. Well 30 is looming over my head like a dark grey cloud, and by the end of next year I would have reached that mark. So yes, I am freaking out, majorly, just picture me running around in circles frantically in an empty room, and then running towards a glass panel door thinking it was open and knocking myself out, type of freaking out. Told you, me-lo-dra-matic. It has been at the forefront of my mind ever since I birthed it, haunting me like a scorned dead woman. Me-lo-dr…
When I set this goal I was so convicted of it, however as time draws near, I don’t feel any closer to achieving it. You could say that I am placing unnecessary pressure on myself, true, yet I refuse to relent. I believe in it, I don’t know how it is going to happen, I have no real physical indication yet, no connections, no expertise, but I still choose to be committed to the vision.
As a child, whatever I thought of would happen exactly how I would imagine it, was this the same for you? What I wanted, I got, and I don’t mean it in a ‘I’m spoilt’ kind of way, more so in ‘it just happened’ way. I honestly, truly, sincerely, stand behind, in front and beside this next statement- whatever you believe, will be real to you. If you believe it long enough, it will begin to materialize in some form or fashion in your life!
We were born creators, it is our inherent legacy to be builders, imagineers, architects, designers, authors, scientists, archeologists, astronomers, artists, producers, without purpose we cease to adequately function.
Sooooooo, this was a long message to say this, that broken dream, mend it.
YOU have the ability to create whatever you think of or want for yourself, remember as a wo/man thinketh so is s/he, so think of something wonderful, something magical, something breathtaking, something life changing, something unapologetically you and make it happen!

Its crazy, I’ve been dreading turning 30 since i was 27. I’m turning 30 next year as well and that dread comes from the idea that I haven’t achieved everything i hoped i would. But then a few months ago i came to a realization. Firstly, I’ve learnt to really appreciate all that I have accomplished so far. Because we tend to focus on what we didn’t do rather than what we’ve actually done. Secondly, 30 is not a death sentence. I’m not done writing my story. 30 is a new chapter but its still the same book and as long as that will and drive is in me I will keep working hard.
Thanks for writing this, its really helped me asses certain things in my mind.
