Answer 1

Things get easier as you become wiser not older.

Answer 2

I can only speak for myself, but I think that it does, you grow into yourself as you age. I don't care so much what other people think about me anymore, I live for myself and more into the moment. I have prioritized the things that are really important to me, like my family. I live for them. I don't live for my job anymore, I work in a job that I love- I just don't live only for it and what I can do for my job. I work because it affords me to live that way I want to live, and do the things that I like. As you age, you move up in your career and financially get more stable, and things become less important, and people become more important.

Answer 3

I'm 57 and have learned to take one day at a time and not expect any thing more from it. I also believe that my God will give me the next day to look forward to with love, kindness and then gratitude. Never ask for anything more than what is actually needed and your life will be so much easier.

Answer 4

Yes, things do get easier as you get older, not all things, but many, and new challenges show up.

You will learn not to worry about things you really don't need to worry about. Hence, more peace.

You might worry about your looks now.  You may have children at 35 and worry about their safety and forget, pretty-much, about your looks.

You should gain a lot of confidence and feel more secure in some ways, too.

I have experienced this.

A lot, though, depends on how you spend the next 10 years, say in developing a career, getting into a relationship that is good and lasts, and so on.  I would work on that.

Answer 5

yes it gets some what easier for u when u get older cuz u are wiser then u was before. If u got kids that part never gets easy..lol..  

Answer 6

I woudn't say that things get easier as we get older, however, we do learn more from experience and therefore try not to make the same old mistakes over again. Tell yourself that life is a journey, sometimes it will be a rollercoaster of a ride, other times it will be more stable. Just dont worry too much about the future and live for today...

Answer 7

Heck yeah. Sometimes I look back at how I was at 25, and wonder how that idiot ever survived. I did the same at 25, when thinking of what a complete moron the 15 year old me was. ;-)

My psych textbook put it pretty well: "in youth we learn, in age we understand."

Answer 8

Regardless of previous answers the answer is entirely up to you,will you learn to be more comfortable in your own skin? your physical well being changes with age and you cannot stop the ageing process,but mentally it's all up to you,it may get easier it may not,I am more at ease with myself although very cynical of modern society so in some ways I have not found life easier,I just care less about what others think ...each to their own,but hope things do get better for you ...

Answer 9

Answer 10

Yes, I'm 28 and I finally feel at peace.  I made a lot of stupid decisions when I was younger and I have finally figured out what I want and need out of life.  It took getting married and having a baby for me to take a long, hard look at how I had been living my life.
