2. Spending recklessly
For your own good and that of your future self, spending recklessly is something you need to leave behind as soon as possible! We know everything is expensive and it’s nearly impossible to save, but that doesn’t mean you have to be irresponsible with your money.
Take the time to sit down, work out a budget and discover what you’re willing to spend money on, and what you can cut back on. 20s aren’t about comfort and luxury for everyone, and despite the pressure on social media, you’ll probably regret it if you make yours about having a new outfit every weekend so that the girls you went to university with will think that you’re cool.
3. Not being careful about relationship choices
For the sake of your bruised heart, try your best not to repeat your relationship mistakes as the years go on. We’ve all made silly choices when it comes to dating and this is the absolute truth.
But guess what? That has to stop now that you’re a strong, independent woman in control of her life! Repeating a relationship mistake and re-learning a lesson you should have learnt a long time ago would not help your self esteem.
It leaves you feeling depressed, hopeless, and wildly mad at yourself. So even though it might feel like the right thing to do in the moment, remember your future self and the long-term result of your actions, and make your decisions responsibly when it comes to entering new relationships in your 20s.
