As you spread your wings and experience life as an adult, you will be pushed to your limits. School, work, family, and fun will stretch your physical limits. Resist the temptation to complain about how hard things are, or how exhausted you find yourself. Make wise choices. Prioritize your free time and social time to ensure you take care of yourself.
No one likes to be around a whiner. If you are tired, be thankful for the opportunities you've been given. If you are struggling at school or work, be thankful for the opportunity to grow.
Bottom line: adulthood comes at a physical cost at times. As I write this post, my college freshman has been at school and work since 5:00 this morning and is not due home until after midnight. He's tired. But it's a good tired. As an adult, we sometimes have to push way passed our outer limits. Every one of us has to at times. Just don't whine about it. It will just isolate you from people in the long run. No one likes to be around a whiner. Be thankful instead!
