Preface
As a mature person, we must know how to protect our dignity and interests when facing various social situations and interpersonal relationships.
A midlife crisis refers to a person who reaches the stage of middle age, faces various pressures and challenges, and often ignores their own interests and quality of life because of the pursuit of face.
01 Don't talk about money casually
Money is an essential part of people's lives, but talking about money often makes people feel awkward and embarrassed.
In middle age, we often encounter money disputes between friends, such as non-repayment of loans, investment failures, and so on. To avoid such embarrassments and disputes, we should learn not to talk about money casually in social situations.
When money is brought up, we can change the subject or politely decline. This will not only avoid embarrassment, but also protect your own interests and face.
02 Don't follow the trend
Middle-aged people often feel lost and confused, and they blindly follow trends in order to pursue them. However, as a mature person, we should be clear about our values and pursuits, and not be swayed by the fashion of the outside world.
Don't blindly chase fashion for the sake of face, but choose a lifestyle and consumption habits that suit you according to your preferences and needs.
Only by truly cultivating both inside and outside can we live a happy life that truly belongs to us.
03 Don't compromise at will
In middle age, we often encounter various interpersonal challenges and conflicts, and many times we have to compromise our principles and bottom line because of face.
However, remembering the "4 don'ts", we should know how to protect our dignity and rights. When faced with unfair treatment or forced to do something unwillingly, we should stick to our principles.
Being good at expressing our true thoughts and seeking reasonable solutions is the only way we can maintain self-respect and self-confidence in our relationships.
04 Don't follow the crowd
In times of midlife crisis, we often lose ourselves by paying too much attention to the opinions of others. However, as a mature person, we should be clear about our own pursuits and goals, and not blindly follow the opinions and choices of others.
We should trust our own judgment and decision-making ability, and stick to our beliefs and principles. Only in this way can we truly realize the value of our lives and live a meaningful and fulfilling life.
summary
Midlife crisis is a challenge that every adult may face, but we must remember these "4 don'ts" and not let ourselves suffer for the sake of face.
Maintaining one's own dignity and interests is paramount in the face of money, popularity, compromise, and other people's opinions. I hope that everyone can maintain a healthy and positive attitude and live a good life in middle age.
