Navigating Your 20s: Common Mistakes to Avoid

Tuesday, September 17, 2024



Each decade of our lives comes with different challenges. Somehow 20s feel the most confusing and overwhelming. Those are the years that we and society put so much on our shoulders. It feels like all of the decisions we make in our 20s will be crucial for how the rest of our lives will look. While that is true in some sense, life is not that simple.


The 20s are a time when we are starting to feel like adults and taking our lives from our parents to our own hands. There is so much we want to do and so many people we want to prove that we know what we are doing. Of course, life is not black and white, so we make mistakes and feel like we are not doing it right.


I’m in my late 20s, and here are some mistakes I wish I didn’t, as my life would be way less stressful.

Tips for Boosting Energy Levels




Let's be honest, folks, hitting that afternoon slump is a universal experience. I usually power through the morning feeling like a million bucks, then by 2 pm, my eyelids get heavy. After constantly looking at the screen, my brain feels like mush, and the only thing I crave is a nap under my home office desk. Has anyone else been there?


I used to be a chronic sufferer of the afternoon slump. My productivity would plummet, and sugary snacks became my not-so-secret weapon (spoiler alert: it didn't work!). But after a lot of trial and error (and way too much coffee!), I've discovered some awesome tips that have helped me boost my energy levels naturally and stay productive throughout the day. So, if you're ready to ditch the afternoon slump and reclaim your energy, then grab a cup of tea (or water, stay hydrated peeps!), and let's dive in!

Amazon is one of the most popular online shopping sites. They have so many different products. Some that can make our life easier and some that just look cute. While I'm not for buying unnecessary things, I do think that sometimes we need to treat ourselves. 

While scrolling through different social media, I came across different products that just made so much sense. It is no wonder that they label them as must-have amazon products.

Preparing for the Holidays
