Do These 5 Things in the Year Before You Turn 40
Some say life starts at 40. Well, does it? Maybe you're becoming an empty nester, just getting started in a new phase of your career, or simply just opening a new chapter in your life. Whatever the case may be, turning 40 is a milestone for all of us to look forward to, and there is so much more life to experience on the other side. With that being said, you should definitely enjoy the journey there. Here are 5 things you should do in the year before you turn 40.
Have a yard sale
Yard sales are not only a great way to get some extra cash in your pocket, but it is also a time of letting go and clearing house. Use a yard sale as an opportunity for getting rid of what we are holding on to. It can be draining holding on to things that no longer serve us. We can let go of things that impact our mental health. Such as letting go of mementos from past relationships or finally going through a deceased loved one's belongings. The process of clearing house and letting go can be a little painful, but seeing these items go to new homes can also bring a profound sense of release and relief.
Get a makeover
Have you been wearing the same style of makeup and outfits since your 20s and 30s? Before you turn 40, schedule yourself a makeover and wear what makes you feel unstoppable. Life's transitions are something to celebrate. As we get older, many of us come further into ourselves, but that doesn't mean there's nothing left to discover. You can choose to walk into your 40s with a renewed sense of purpose and self.
Restart self care routine
Has work, kids, and relationships changed or even stopped your self-care routine? Maybe you stopped getting massages or visiting the gym to exercise because of all the life changes, but that doesn't mean you have to stay stopped forever. Restart your self-care routine and maybe even take it up a notch. Schedule a luxury spa day. Treat yourself to a facial. Heck, go on a hike with your girlfriends for a new change of scenery. Whatever you do, do it with love. And do it to fall in love with taking the BEST care of yourself.
Boss up
If you haven't already started: It's time to BOSS UP. Work on getting your credit right. Make plans to focus on the path to wealth through investments and multiple streams of income. Have you been thinking about starting that business? Finally, do it! Get researching on what kind of business you want to create and make sure you go in the direction of your passions! Focus on those things that really help you boss up so that you can confidently walk into your 40s!
Live it up
Finally, make sure you live it up. Start dating again, break away from relationships that do not positively serve you, rediscover your partner, travel. There is a lot more life to live after you turn 40, but make sure the journey there by enjoying your life to its fullest. That way, when you finally cross that 40-year-old milestone, you can absolutely step into this new phase of your life with joy and enthusiasm for your next chapter.
