HBD fam.

This is the decade where those that do and those that don't start to take paths more divergent than you have already seen in your 20s. Maintain your avi and you're in in top 99%.
The closer we approach the uncertainty of life's ending the more we wish to trade all of the things we have acquired in exchange for all of the things we have lost: wealth for youth, knowledge for fresh curiosity, resignation for hope. We'd trade our wisdom for new experiences, but it is wisdom that will teach us that at the end of the road the only new experience is death.

The only people who don't enjoy their 30's are the dudes who were 21 until the day they turned 30.

If you've been growing up, developing your career, friends/family etc life's a party!

Repped brah happy birthday.

It's never too late to try new things or learn new skills, no matter what you've heard. This 'can't teach an old dog new tricks' colloquialism is nonsense. At 30, I taught myself how to oil paint. I plan on continuing to teach myself various skills as I age. It's a protective factor for your brain as you get older.

Enjoy your 30s, brah. Muscle maturity is right around the corner

This. In mid to late 20s people start getting fat, out of shape, etc. but wheels completely fall off in 30s if you don’t take care of yourself. No reason you can’t be in 40s and physically do everything you could do at 25. But you’ll see a group of the population (aka 90%) who are “too old” and out of shape to even run a simple 5k

You're entering your prime, this is when life gets real imo.
As you get older you realize that everyone you meet is most likely younger than you and that's okay, hopefully you have developed some type of serious discipline that is going to propel you into success.

Yep.

Also, op. It applies to everything. This is the time when that old saying "life is what you make it" really starts to kick in. From grade school to college graduation you're on a well defined path surrounded by peers engaged in the same thing as you, and mentors that help you reach the next stage.

You know what to do and what's expected of you and your social life is pretty well predefined. You do what everyone else is doing, for the most part.

You probably started to notice in your mid/late twenties that you might still hang with some people taking a different path in life but maybe you're questioning why or know they will be out of your life before long. 30s is where this becomes all of your life. Not all of your peers are doing the same things. Your mentors can be harder to find and how you spend your free time is really not as influenced by your surroundings.

It really is what you make of it at this point.
The closer we approach the uncertainty of life's ending the more we wish to trade all of the things we have acquired in exchange for all of the things we have lost: wealth for youth, knowledge for fresh curiosity, resignation for hope. We'd trade our wisdom for new experiences, but it is wisdom that will teach us that at the end of the road the only new experience is death.
