Life at 24 moving into 2025

Hi guys. My name is Michael (Mike for short)

I feel like I’ve wasted a lot of time and made mistakes over the years, but I do aspire to rise and overcome all the bs to be who I want to be and where I want to be in 2025. I have old goals I never completed and new ones I want to man come true. I feel lost in life and regret breaking up with my gf 6 months ago, but hey we live and we learn. I have to grow up and be more mature. I’m grateful for the experience yet it bothers me there’s no second chance to redeem myself and live up to her expectations in a loving relationship. Even so, I can’t fully do that now. My goals this year is to hold myself accountable for 3 major things.

1) physical and mental health: follow and document myself in a workout plan, eat nutritious foods, meditate, and socialize more

2) social media: it’s to hold myself accountable and to express myself to the world via the internet. I am gonna hide my face and try to keep my identity private, but talk about topics that are very real or relevant. I’ve also seen how normal people have made money doing so.

3) Financial Freedom & independence: I love my parents and have but my family before myself in so many different ways. But I really need to move out. So I really need to make more money, at least 6k a month. My goal financially is to make 10k a months and have time to myself but it doesn’t work like that. I plan to work a job, learn new ways to make money, learn new things (video editing, websites, dropshipping, TikTok shop, crypto, trading, real estate, etc) obsess over creating videos or music (something I’m passionate about) and post it, take risks, and find new friends. Maybe even a mentor (if I manage to create a business, a future goal of mine)

Whenever I type it out it seems wildy ambitious and I’ve had these ideas for a while now. Heck, from past jobs I have 30k saved up but I also never continued school. Just two years at a community college because I didn’t know what I wanted to do. To be honest, I still don’t. But I’m tired of help in the family business and not meeting new people, pursuing opportunities, and creating opportunities.

2025 will be my year to really make a difference with my life because I’ve been unhappy with myself. I feel I lost my partner because of that. Had I been more well rounded and out together we wouldn’t have had much problems and if I’m being honest, I need to be happy with myself first and not seek that in other people.
