29 Major Life Traps To Avoid
We're always looking life hacks to get ahead, but sometimes it's important to look out for the pitfalls just as much. Here are 30 major traps in life that you should try and avoid.
1.
Just because you have spare money at the end of the month doesn’t mean you need to spend it.
3.
Thinking that you're running out of time to do something because someone else has done it already.
4.
Marrying or living with or otherwise committing to someone who is mean to you and doesn’t treat you well.
5.
Waiting too long for "perfect," like the perfect soulmate, house, job, etc., and then letting too many good opportunities pass by.
6.
Obsession with physical appearance. This has plagued my life and I’ve never felt satisfied with how I look. Be kind to yourself and others.
8.
Having an elaborate expensive wedding that does nothing but stress everyone out and bankrupt you.
9.
Having kids bc society said you should. Nothing against kids, parents, etc, but the pressure to have kids is immense in most areas.
10.
Staying in unhealthy relationships because "I've put ten years into this." I beg of you, know your worth.
11.
You gotta be your own advocate. If you think other people will fix the problems you have, you're gonna have a bad time.
12.
Lifestyle creep. Feeling the need to upgrade cars, houses, jewelry, etc to keep up with your peers.
13.
Putting things off. We could do it more as kids because someone was there to pick up the slack, or stay on top of you to get something done. But as an adult, the consequences of waiting on stuff slaps you hard.
14.
Multi-level marketing. Someone got me to go to a seminar and the rhetoric was what a lot of people want to hear about themselves for validation.
18.
Alcoholism and drug abuse. Eventually getting high stops being fun, but you can't stop because your body is physically dependent on it.
23.
My grandfather only ever gave me one piece of advice. "There are 3 things in life that can ruin you. Don't do drugs, Don't gamble, and a good women is very important, a bad one can ruin your life forever." All I can say is too true.
28.
Toxic relationships. People do them to try and "fix" people, but they just end up getting themselves hurt.
