This topic of being in your thirties or turning thirty with the ability to tick certain achievements on your list of goals will forever be necessary to talk about because the feeling of the need to be successful at thirty is inevitable.
This is due to the fact that the thirties are seen as the beginning of the older years. When you turn thirty, you are twenty years from the age of fifty so you begin to feel old and ask yourself "what have I achieved?".
Though it is not something we should worry about, seeing other people achieve a number of things in their thirties can increase the pressure to want to be counted on the list of achievers in their thirties. Added to this are the 'mistakes' we feel we have made in the past, especially in our twenties or the time we feel we have wasted having fun which we feel we should have used to build or focus on a goal.
No matter what we feel or think right now, our past is gone and we can only correct the present and the future. But before that, there are two things - Where you are right now may be where you are meant to be because we have different journeys in life with different timings and paces. Secondly, this is the second chance you have to rewrite your story and add more achievements to your list.
You have to start from somewhere. Think of all the things you want to achieve and write them down. Then start with the one(s) you can achieve easily and work on it.
You will still feel the pressure as you strive to achieve things in your thirties and it will manifest in the form of you feeling late in life and feeling like your efforts are not enough. But you need to stay strong and keep going. Keep working hard and you will get there.
Wishing you all the best.
