At what age do you feel like you finally figured life out?

When do you feel like you actually got to a place where you had purpose, felt solid in your career, knew what you wanted from yourself and family, and had solid financial footing?
Was it different from what you expected when you were younger? I remember being an idealistic teenager thinking what my life would be like based off TV, movies, and a few examples around me. It took about 20 extra years to get there.

Probably next year.
Been saying that for decades.

Hopefully in my 60s. If not then, maybe later. I do know how to make rice a roni. So I’ve got that.

Just turned 52 and still working on it.
Have a place and purpose. Like the job, solid in my career, solid financial footing.
But life changes, dealing with aging parents, adult children, aging, keeps moving the bar of worry free living that I'd hope to have.

The moment you feel like you have life figured out....it will throw you a knuckleball and kick you in the nuts.

When we were 6 years old a few friends and I had a roundtable discussion at school and hashed it out relatively quickly. It helped that we had an average IQ of 140.

You never do. It keeps changing, so should we.

If you ever think you have it figured out, it’s a sure sign that you don’t.

Any day now….

Life is constantly changing so we are always learning. I think its what makes part of life great. If we were all same this world would be incredibly boring. That said we should still learn to ELE.
Late 30s is when I felt I started to grasp the important things in life.

For me, it was early 40's when I finally woke up and realized that my purpose and mission was not of my own doing but of God's.

The best thing about life is it's unpredictability. Every day is new with new aquantances and experiences. I hope I never figure it out, sounds boring.

To make a distinction, one can feel like they have it all figured out, and find themselves later on to have been wrong. One can feel lost but still be right. Some need no reflection to feel right, and some will do endless reflection and never satisfied.

Thought I did at 27 when I landed a job that I would retire from. Little did I know that a year later I would be divorced. Stayed with the job until 4 years later me and big wig had words and he was out to get me. Got me a few months later on some bullshite. I was gonna be fired, but resigned instead. Went back to my previous life of chasing jobs all over the US. Fast forward to just over a year ago. I got a call from the same company wanting me back. They had finally fired that a-hole. Everyone was glad he was gone. I went back at 40 yrs old and will retire in hopefully 15-20 years. It’s one of the highest paying jobs in my area for the position.
It also helped that I put myself in rehab to kick my alcohol habit. I basically drink myself to sleep everyday. I still occasionally enjoy a beer or two, but not a fifth and a case a day like it use to be. Life sucked at the time and was a blur for about 10 years…

A few years ago when I finally turned to Jesus and said that I need HIS help and I would trust him. I don't need to figure it out. It's already been figured out and I am at peace with whatever happens. I don't ever use the word "worry" anymore. I have replaced it with "concerned." Everyone wants peace of mind and we all must search for it and hopefully find it at some point in our lives.

It doesn't happen.
