3. Being Small-Minded
As a twenty-something you often think you’ve gained a lot of insight in your years to date. That may well be true but you still have a long way to go. With this sense of maturity and knowledge you can sometimes forget that seemingly big things in your life are actually very microscopic things.
For instance, your roommate leaving a saucepan in the sink may not be a pre-determined middle finger to you. Just as you being laid off from a call center may not mean you are doomed to career failure for eternity.
These hiccups along the road can cause us to act out in expressive and embarrassing ways. We eventually learn it’s best to keep things in perspective.
