Responsibility.

Financial imbalance is one of the major cost of adulthood that seems frustrating and which drains a lot of people to the point of uncomfortable. It's very frustrating when you find yourself in a position where you have bills to pay, but the challenges keep coming, you've little ones to sponsors, while depression is just seated at a corner waiting for the right time to strike. And despite all your hard work, struggles and effort, nothing seems to be working for you.

You can't talk about adulthood without including mental and physical health, it is a must those factors are considered because at that stage, we have to learn how to protect and prioritize our mental state of mind and our physical health as well. At time's you might feel like it is tiring to be an adult because you always have to be magnanimous and see the bigger picture.

I remember on some occasions, I have come across people walking on the street and talking to themselves, am not talking about mad people here, I mean healthy and sound minded people who by looking at them, you know that they are ok, but why do they talk to themselves? The question was baffling to me untill I came to realize that, so many people might look physically ok, but emotionally and psychologically, something is wrong somewhere or they are under pressure because of something or someone.

Let me give out a brief experience on the responsibility situation that came early on me.

Being the eldest child I noticed how difficult things we're for my parents in terms of funding our education, since I have gotten to a certain age of independence I has to quickly decide to foot my self by working as a car wash attendance.
So I could just reduce that preside on my parents. They can focus more on my other siblings,I could now fend for myself.

In all the ups and downs that come with being an adult, there are still rewards and benefits that come with it. You get the freedom to do what you want and at the time you want, you get to build relationships that are meaningful, you take decisions on your own regarding your life and you get to pursue your dreams and passion.

Complex emotions and relationships can only be handled better with a matured mind, because decision making is left for you to make alone, be it good or bad decision, you get to live and experience the consequences of your decision. As you navigate through life's challenges, it's important to acknowledge and take anticipatory steps towards adulthood, because you are not alone in it.

Learn to be flexible and versatile in what you do, but also cultivate resilience, adaptability and authenticity, because this life has more to offer than what you see. It can be overwhelming at first, especially when it comes to handling the complexity of savings, budgeting and even investments, but remember that tough decisions make tough people and often time's yield positive results.

Thank you for your time
