Navigating life hasn’t been easy as an adult because one can not understand the whole concept of life. I have been made to understand that as far as you live you get to experience new things every day. Life itself is an adventure that we get to learn a lot from. Either way, I am sure that I could give one or two pieces of advice to the upcoming generation because I have had my own shared experiences about life, and in this short time, life has taught me a lot and to think we are still learning. It is a long ride.
I think one solid piece of advice I would give to the upcoming generation is Being Contented. In a society like ours, greed has made young adults get themselves into things that have turned them into a menace to society. Most times lack of contentment has driven people into things that are not worth it just because they have their eyes on things that do not belong to them. It has led to stealing and also lying just to meet up.
When I was little, my parents made it an obligation to let me and my siblings know that it is good to desire the good things of life but then we should learn to be contented and not envious of what the next person has. Contentment has to do with a state of happiness and satisfaction. The feeling of being okay with whatever you want even if you are working hard to get more.
When it comes to contentment, as a person just being contented could help with your financial life. We set financial goals but sometimes we can’t meet up with it and it might not be as a result of something important coming up, it could be that you saw something in someone and since you couldn’t be contented with what you have, you just want to get the exactly same thing, so you either touch your finances simply because you can’t be contented.
The younger generation should learn that as a person you should be satisfied with whatever you have, definitely humans be insatiable but then being satisfied could prevent you from lots of things like getting into debt because you want something more.
Also, another advice I would give to the upcoming generation is to be ready for anything. Life has taught me that most things are unpredictable. You could be healthy one day and then the next day you are collapsing and being placed on medication. It has taught me that you could wake up one day and then you could lose your loved ones. One day you could be rich and then boom something tragic could happen and then you could be nothing close to being rich.
Being ready for anything puts you at the point where you can move on and continue going through the whole phase of life. Life could happen to anyone and I think the young generation should know this. So I would advise them to be ready for whatever life brings but in all giving up is never an option and shouldn’t be an option to them.
