As I turn 33, I only have one question: “How the hell did I make it here?!”

All joking aside, while there’s plenty to go in my life, it’s fun to pause, reflect, and smile on the decisions that brought me here today.

Because the brutal truth is the life I have now would be impossible if it wasn’t for several turning points: Moments where I gave up the life I was previously living and committed to something that changed my trajectory. From then on, my personality, habits, goals, and more changed and could never go back.

“A mind that is stretched by a new experience can never go back to its old dimensions.”

— Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.

Here are the biggest turning points that lead to a lifestyle I love—and I hope they’ll serve you too.

1. Learning how to talk to strangers

To say “I used to be shy” is an understatement. I never asked out a single girl until I was in my 20s and I couldn’t talk to people I didn’t know.
