🌟 The Difference Between 20-Year-Old Me and 30-Year-Old Me

As I step into my 30s, I’ve noticed several changes in how I feel

largely due to my recent HYROX (running & weight lifting) training

I am writing this article as I finished my intense workout and while struggling to walk to MTR station..... (signs of ageing...)

Here are a few key differences of 30 yrs old me vs 20 yrs old me:

1. Physical Ability Decline 🏋️‍♂️

In my 20s, I could work or exercise for long hours without needing a break. 

Late-night parties? 

Easy. I can bounce back to office the next morning. 

Now?

Recovery takes longer and I can’t do it all like I used to.

2. Learning how to work efficiently to buy back time⏳

With my physical ability down, I’ve learned the importance of efficiency. 

I’ve become better at identifying A/B clients. 

Clients who genuinely pay 

Candidates who are really looking out 

As I age, I have realised I need to spend my time intentionally, focusing on effective workouts and solutions because I can no longer work as long hours as I used to.

I need to bring results in a shorter period of time. 

3. The Importance of Passive Income 💰

Given my reduced energy, I can no longer trade time for money as easily. 

🚗 I find myself taking taxis more often instead of using the MTR or walking home after exercising or attending events.

Because I am tired and also because I want to be home earlier.

⏰ I’ve learned to use money to buy back time and energy for myself.

-----------------------

If I could go back to my early 20s?

I think I would try out as many things as I can.

- Play more sports

- Join more competitions

- Accumulate more clients

- Accumulate more valuable experiences

- Take part in different organisations at work or outside of work

- Develop more hobbies
