Being Your Best

[Janice]

At what age do you think you finally got your act together. A time when you realized you are grown up and you better get your life and future in order?

I wasted some years I am sorry for which I could have put to some good use. I would say 30 years old was when I finally grew up.

Life is good now.

I realized it about 3 years ago when I became self employed. I was starting to really lag at working and realized that I party too much and couldn't get up in the mornings. Well I still don't like getting up in the morning but, what are ya going to do. Now that I'm 27 I am going to go back to school cause I realized if I don't do something that makes me happy I might as well accept the fact that I would be unhappy at work for the rest of my life. That was a butt kicker I'll tell you that much. I'm interested to hear other peoples stories.

Even though I had my kids in my early 20's, it wasn't until after my Dad died when I was 27. In addition to my kids, I had to take on many other responsibilities and realized what life was all about.

I don't think that it was a sudden change for me. Even in high school, I took care of business, got good grades, got into the college of my choice, and graduated in 4 years. Now at age 47 I have days that I just don't give a hoot and I slack off. Maybe I have things backwards.

When I became pregnant at 23 with the twins. There were alot of things that I was doing in my life that where very unhealthy and I had no goals. When I knew I was going to bring 2 babies into the world, hubby and I both woke up. But it seems like we really have gotten it together here in the past 2 years at age 30.
