The age of 50 is a turning point in a woman's life. At this age, the loss of hormones gives us a new understanding of life and changes dramatically. Later in life, you start thinking about how you should spend the rest of your life, and it's important to put yourself first.
At my sorority, I met a beautiful lady who was 54 years old. She expressed her views on the rest of her life. She believes that there are three important things in the second half of her life, and the better you do it, the better. , better happiness. I want to share this with you.
First and foremost, it's your own happiness. Over the years, we have spent most of our time running around for our children and families, neglecting our own happiness. Our happiness always seems to be based on the satisfaction of others, and we will only feel happy when our husbands are happy and our children are happy. But as we get older, especially over 50, we need to re-examine our lives and find our own happiness.
I once had a client who had a son in Shanghai. She bought her son a house, a car, and saved her own pocket money. However, the son complained that the house was too small. She felt very aggrieved and decided not to agree to her son's request. She began to use her monthly pension for her own welfare, began to pursue what she liked, bought clothes, cosmetics, and began to maintain her appearance. After fighting for her son all her life, she realized that true happiness is still based on her own happiness.
Secondly, it's about your own body. After the age of 50, you begin to understand that true wealth is health. No matter how much money you have, if you get sick, you will fall into poverty. Therefore, it is better to spend less money and more energy to operate healthily.
My former compatriots were very frugal, less than 5 yuan per meal, and barely spent a penny. It's not that she doesn't have money, it's that she's too obsessed with saving money. She thinks saving money is the best option. But she ended up suffering from a condition called pancreatic necrosis that cost her thousands of dollars a month. This experience made her realize that health is the greatest wealth, and without health, no amount of money can guarantee happiness.
Finally, about your own emotions. We all know that emotions have an important impact on health. But why do we always have mood swings and have trouble controlling our emotions? Perhaps the reason is that our inner needs are not being met. Behind every negative emotion is an expectation, and when that expectation is not met, our body fights back through emotions.
After the age of 50, we should think more deeply about our emotions and the reasons behind them. I often keep a journal to ask myself why my emotions fluctuate, to find answers, and to improve my inner world and cognitive level. Stabilizing one's emotions requires constant practice, and only by getting used to paying attention to one's emotions can you better enjoy the beauty of life.
The age of 50 is an important turning point. Personally, I think these three points are very important. I hope everyone agrees with this idea.
